Unfortunately, neither the trailer nor Paradise are what Charlotte expected. Her trailer is a ramshackle old place in need of major repair, and the people of Paradise are harboring more secrets than Bayer has aspirin. Charlottes new friend Rose Tattoo learns that Charlotte played softball and convinces her to rally the women of Paradise into a team. Reluctant at first, Charlotte warms to the notion and is soon coaching the Paradise Angels. Meanwhile, Charlotte discovers that the manager of Paradise, Fergus Wrinkel, abuses his wife Suzy. Charlotte sets out to find a way to save Suzy from Fergus and in the process comes to a difficult realization about her own painful marriage.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Occupy Syracuse is back, at least for a day. The group is marking May Day with protests challenging U.S. corporations, on behalf of what they claim is the 99 percent of Americans not sharing in the country's prosperity.
The group has not been as vocal as it had been when the initial Occupy demonstrations began in late 2011. Many members have drifted away, but remaining protesters say the movement goes on.
"We're still here. We're not going to give up. Workers have rights too and that's what today's really all about," said Anthony DeFrank, Occupy protester.
The group is planning marches on some local companies to mark the day.

Ooh , I love the show c: Im in but how wil it work?
If you have not watched the show, it
Special Note: This roleplay will contain new characters but will follow the same basic concept:
2 baby girls were born nearly two decades ago, but at the time, they were switched. Both babies were given to the incorrect mothers. Now, both families find out-how will they be able to handle the situation? What challenges will they face?
If you are considering joining, just to let you know, the two girls that were switched are not the main characters-the families are capable of stirring up just as much drama as the girls are-so really, every single character is important to the roleplay!
I don't have many rules, I only ask for no anime/no supernatural-and try to make them have some sort of fault in their personality-at least one quirk. That's all!

Product Details
This Braun 5180 epilator uses 40 Tweezer Technology for fast and efficient results. The Braun 5180 features 2 heads and 1 blade that can remove up to 60 hairs in one stroke, resulting in slower, finer hair re-growth. This leaves your skin silky smooth for up to 4 weeks. The 5180 epilator uses a Smartlight to reveal the presence of short, fine hairs, and SoftLift Tips® are used to lift up and guide flat lying hairs to the tweezers, helping to give you a smooth finish. These epilators use a dual massage system to gently activate the skin before and after epilation to minimise the pulling sensation. The 5180 epilator offers you a choice of 2 speeds. Speed 1 is for gentle epilation, and Speed 2 for efficient epilation. The Braun 5180 epilator includes batteries, and can also run off the mains. It includes a storage case.

$.getJSON(\"http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?ids=52723107@N00&lang=en-us&format=json&jsoncallback=?\", function(data){

.wrap(\"

At the moment it is showing the last 20 pictures taken. Is there anyway to configure how many results actually show ( i only need about 5 or 6).
ThanksI kinda wondered about that too, and then never found a good solution. I think I approached it from the angle that there is probably a parameter you can pass with the URL to limit the responses, but I never found one. Another angle to the problem would be to ditch the "each" loop and only loop through a set number of times, although I couldn't tell you exactly how to do that since I'm a bit of an amateur myself when it comes to all this stuff.you just add an if statement at the end and you'll be able to control the amount of pix
;if ( index == 6 ) return false;
for 5 pictures.
works like a charm,
hope it helps Charles
PS Chris the footer OH MY ... siiiiiiiiiiick!!!!Thanks pab!
Also must agree, Chris, the footer is amazing - i love the twitter spaceship.My Pleasure Charles, let me know if you need anything else

Comments about AdapTable High Chair - Stratosphere:
I bought this high chair to have at my Mother's house when we visit and it is fine for that. My biggest complaint is the way the chair reclines as well as the seat belt. the seat belt is only for the lap and is not 5 point. I have a very mobile 10 month old and I would be worried to leave him for a min in this chair. The one really nice feature is that the tray has a spot to hang it on the back which is very nice so you don't leave the tray on other tables or chairs. The chair has a pretty small profile. It is fine for a chair for a grandparents house, but for $20 more I should have gone with the Graco. The Graco has a better recline, better seat belt and comes already assembled.

IndyCar acquired all of the CART records in the same way that CART acquired all of the USAC records. So technically, A.J. Foyt has the most IRL wins of all time with 67.
So, for the years that IRL and CART coexisted, there were two champions?

Bricks and mortar are the stuff that buildings are made out of. Throw in a few sticks of wood, some glass for the windows and there you have it; a shelter of sorts. Everyone know that's what a building is, right?
I believe the above description is missing something, and that is the soul of the building.
To me, all buildings have a soul, which is developed over time and becomes a part of the building through the love and memories shared within the walls. Perhaps that is the reason why I have been drawn to old buildings for as long as I can remember. The older the building, the longer the memories have had the opportunity to embed themselves within every pore of the bricks and mortar with which the buildings have been erected, thus creating the soul of the building.
A touch of the personality of each individual who spends regular time within a building radiates through the walls, creating a melting-pot of humanity, enriching the structure with a character all of its own.
Back in the days of my childhood, growing up in the beautiful Blue Mountains of New South Wales, our closest large town was Penrith. In those days, with only one main road existing by which to enter or leave the mountains, we travelled to, and through, Penrith regularly.
My favourite part of the trip, every time we travelled that road, was crossing over the river. I would peer out of the old station-wagon window as we drove across Victoria Bridge, crossing the Nepean River, enjoying the glistening sun shining across the water and looking down at the wonderful old building just beyond the bridge, sitting beside the banks of the river.
As a child, I had no idea what the building was, just that the building looked old and inviting and that's all I cared about. The name of the building appealed to me as well ~ "The Log Cabin".
When I was twelve years of age, my cousin was married at an old church in Emu Plains (the first town in the Blue Mountains) at an old stone church which was built by convicts, (another building of character). Her wedding reception would be held at The Log Cabin.
To this day I can still remember clearly the details of the day of my cousins wedding; the brand new "grown up" outfit Mum had bought for me to wear, the pea and ham soup we ate for lunch and how my hair (as usual) had a mind of its own, with my unruly curls flying hither and yon, when all I wanted them to do was to sit flat!
Mum complained of a bad headache at the church and decided against going to the reception at The Log Cabin.
Poor Mum. At the reception I thanked the God of all Almost Teenagers for giving her the headache that day, as ultimately it allowed me to enjoy my first "teenager's night out" with my thirteen year old cousin!
Early on in the night Dad became happily ensconced in enjoying a pint or two and catching up with old friends and family.
With a hefty supply of twenty-cent coins in our hands, gratefully donated by my darling Dad and uncle (as it kept me and my cousin out of their hair for a few hours!) and music blaring in the background, we headed off to play on the row of pin-ball machines, lined up in the far corner, against the wall.
Whatever would Mum think???
Here I was, twelve years of age, with money, playing pin-ball machines, unsupervised ~ and loving every minute of it! Mum would have been horrified!
I always knew there was a reason why I liked the Log Cabin!
Although many moons passed and there were plenty more opportunities along the way for independence, the Log Cabin has always held treasured memories of my first taste of freedom.
In April last year, when I returned to Penrith for the first time in around fifteen years, I spent a night at the Log Cabin Motel, giving me the opportunity to see the building of my childhood memories through the eyes of an adult.
Late in the afternoon I took a walk along the pathway beside the river. Rather than the bridge taking me across the river, for the first time in my life I walked under Victoria Bridge, alongside the Nepean River.
The pounding and roar of traffic travelling across the bridge, as I stood directly beneath the roadway, looking up at the underside of the bridge, could have been unsettling.
It wasn't.
Standing below, with the roaring thunder of traffic overhead, I felt protected and cocooned by the spirits of my father and uncle, and all of the other family members with whom I had shared that night with, so long ago, who are no longer with us.
Post Script ~ Last weekend, much to the dismay of me and hundreds of Penrith locals, a fire destroyed much of the beautiful Log Cabin buildings. Originally built in 1837, over the years the Log Cabin has undergone many extensions and name changes. Starting its life as an inn, the Log Cabin progressed in 1939, after further extensions, to becoming the Log Cabin Hotel, when a licence to sell alcohol was first issued.
I look forward to the day when The Log Cabin begins its next entity, when the restoration of the remaining buildings are completed, or when the Log Cabin II is built.

Outsource Works, a Lewiston-based nonprofit that performed assembly work for area businesses and helped employ people who had trouble finding jobs, will close at the end of the month, a result of the tough economy.
The organization performed light manufacturing work for regional businesses that needed extra help, and also provided flexible work hours for people who had trouble getting a more traditional job, like single mothers, older workers or those recently out of jail.
Board President Mary Lou Hofmann told the Sun Journal the organization had only 23 to 27 pieceworkers, down from the more than 100 it once employed, and 10 employees. She said more of its customers began doing assembly work in-house to provide work for their employees, and that anticipated funding fell through. It did not receive a Community Development Block Grant this year as it has for the past few years.
It was founded in 1997 as Faithworks.

Keynote Photonics' new LC3000-PRO™ is an industrial DLP pico-projector that is up to 3x brighter than similar solutions and aimed at portable machine vision or spectroscopy markets where small size and higher brightness matter
Plano, Texas (PRWEB) February 04, 2013
Keynote Photonics announced today the LC3000-PRO™, an industrial DLP pico-projector with up to 3x more brightness (approximately 100 lumens) than similar solutions and production ready design for short time to market. The compact design is ideal for hand-held machine vision solutions where brightness is as important as size and weight.
"Keynote Photonics has enhanced the original DLP LightCrafter reference design with a powerful 3-channel LED driver and rugged chassis design." said Adam Kunzman, President of Keynote. "Customers can use the LC3000-PRO projector as-is, in production, or use sub-components of the design for custom solutions."
Get more info on the LC3000-PRO
In addition to the enhanced brightness capability, the LC3000-PRO offers a factory focus lock solution, forced-air cooling, and a standard camera mount. The LC3000-PRO, like the LightCrafter evaluation module, consists of a DLP pico-light engine using a 0.3" WVGA DMD. Keynote's LED driver can be easily adapted by designers to use other LED or Laser sources.
The LC3000-PRO is fully backward compatible with TI's LightCrafter development environment.
Production units are anticipated to ship in 2Q13.
Keynote Photonics will be exhibiting at Photonics West 2013 with Texas Instruments. South Hall, Booth 1331. To schedule a meeting, feel free to send an advance request via our Contact Form.

501(c)(3) is the section of the IRS Code that deals with charitable organizations such as churches. The rules under this code allow those of us who contribute to these organizations to claim a deduction for such contributions when we file our taxes, if they meet certain thresholds.
The church also is free from taxation on the contributions it collects.
In exchange for this noninvolvement of government in church affairs (see Article 1 in the Bill of Rights) there are rules regarding the noninvolvement of the church in government.
Seems fair doesn't it? The rule reads in part, (a church) "may not be an action organization, i.e. it may not attempt to influence legislation as a substantial part of its activities and it may not participate in any campaign activity for or against political candidates."
Churches that violate the regulation can lose their 501(c)(3) tax exempt status, and the contributors can lose their tax deduction for contributions as well.
I found it very disturbing to observe Tony Perkins and others at a meeting of the Family Research Council vigorously advocating that churches ignore the rules and campaign openly for candidates. These are not Jim Crow type unconstitutional laws.
These are laws regarding the separation of church and state that are one of the pillars supporting our democracy. Church members of all people should be law abiding and "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's."
I find it equally disturbing that some of our local politicians violated the rules so blatantly during the last election cycle. Some of those same folks have been soliciting speaking engagements at church services recently. This cavalier attitude toward the law should be an automatic disqualifier for public office.
Any church leader should think twice about allowing such illegal activity and jeopardizing the tax exempt status of their church and the deduction status for their contributors.

A crowd turned out to celebrate the Fourth of July — a few days late — at Uptown Wadesboro, Inc.'s monthly Summer Jam concert on Friday night.
The concerts are held monthly every summer, with the July concert serving as the town's Fourth of July celebration. After a concert by the band, Liquid Pleasure, there was a fireworks show. Inflatable slides and moonbounces were also on hand for the kids. Refreshments were on sale, as well, with proceeds going to help local girls reach their goal of getting to the U.S. Barrel Team.
Liquid Pleasure played a variety of well-known tunes, from classic R&B to beach music and country hits. The next Summer Jam concert is planned for Aug. 3 on East Wade Street, 7-10 p.m. with the Loaded Dice Band scheduled to perform.

Florida's Constitutional Amendments: What Passed, What Didn't and What That Means
Take a closer look at the 11 constitutional amendments and how Floridians voted on them.
The Nov. 6 ballot was one of the largest Florida voters have ever seen and here's why: there were 11 proposed constitutional amendments up for consideration.
Amendments require a 60 percent or higher approval rate to pass.
Based on results calculated by the state's Division of Elections, here's what passed and what didn't at of 1 a.m. Nov. 7:
Florida Amendment 1: Health Care Services – Fail
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment did not meet the 60 percent requirement to pass.
The amendment would have given Florida the ability to opt out of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare.
Florida Amendment 2: Veterans Disabled to Combat Injury; Homestead Property Tax Discount – Pass
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment met the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment gives disabled veterans who did not live in Florida when they entered the military a break on their property taxes. It essentially extends the homestead property tax discounts to include them.
Florida Amendment 3: State Government Revenue Limitation – Fail
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment did not meet the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment would have set the state's revenue limit based on a formula that takes inflation and population growth into account.
Florida Amendment 4: Property Tax Limitation; Property Value Decline; Reduction for Non-Homestead Assessment Increases; Delay of Scheduled Repeal – Fail
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment did not meet the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment would have limited the allowable growth in the assessments on certain non-homestead properties from 10 percent to 5 percent. It would have also prohibited increases in assessed value on homestead properties and some non-homestead properties when market values decrease. It also intended to give first-time homesteaders an extra exemption. The amendment would have provided homestead tax exemption benefits to out-of-state residents.
Florida Amendment 5: State Courts – Fail
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment did not meet the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment would have required that Supreme Court justices appointed by the Governor also be confirmed by the Senate. It also would have enabled the court to repeal a rule through a simple majority instead of requiring the two-thirds majority vote that is now in place. In addition, it would have given the Florida House of Representatives the ability to review all files of the Judicial Qualifications Commission.
Florida Amendment 6: Prohibition on Public Funding of Abortions; Construction of Abortion Rights – Fail
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment did not meet the 60 percent requirement to pass.
While federal law already prohibits the use of federal funds for most abortions, this amendment would have added the prohibitions into the state Constitution. The amendment would have disallowed the use of the state Constitution's privacy clause in cases related to abortion, which means this clause couldn't be used to defend abortion rights.
Florida Amendment 8: Religious Freedom – Fail
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment did not meet the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment would have repealed a provision in the state Constitution that bans taxpayer funding of religious institutions. The measure would have enabled the state to provide financial support to religious schools and institutions.
Florida Amendment 9: Homestead Property Tax Exemption for Surviving Spouse of Military Veteran or First Responder – Pass
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment met the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment gives full homestead property tax benefits to the surviving spouses of military veterans and first responders who are killed in the line of duty. The new rule requires that the deceased be a Florida resident as of Jan. 1 of the year they died.
Florida Amendment 10: Tangible Personal Property Tax Exemption – Fail
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment did not meet the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment would have raised the tangible personal property tax exemption for businesses related to furniture and equipment from $25,000 to $50,000.
Florida Amendment 11: Additional Homestead Exemption for Low-Income Seniors who Maintain Long-Term Residency on Property; Equal to Assessed Value – Pass
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment met the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment would grants full homestead property tax relief to seniors in the low-income tax bracket who have lived in their homes for 25 years or more.
Florida Amendment 12: Appointment of Student Body President to the Board of Governors of the State University – Fail
With most of Florida's precincts reporting, this amendment did not meet the 60 percent requirement to pass.
This amendment would have changed the way the state selects student representatives to serve on the state university system's Board of Governors.
Results are considered unofficial until they are certified by the state of Florida.

To hell with the rights of individuals!
6:50 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
If the Surviving Spouse of Military Veteran or First Responder gets married again... he/she should lose the exemption on their home. I voted "no" on this amendment simply because that caveat was not mentioned.
Megan Hendricks
6:59 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Actually, what you said about amendment 1 isn't correct. The supreme court stated that the federal healthcare law is constitutional, and therefore states are not able opt out of it. All the amendment would have done was send a message to Washington that Floridians don't like Obamacare. But, it would't have had any merit from a constitutional standpoint.
12:42 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Hi Megan! "Surprisingly", the Supreme Court did rule the health care mandate "constitutional", but only because its proponents (Democrats) suddenly switched from calling it a 'penalty" to calling it a "tax", even though all along they (including the President) insisted it was a penalty and definitely not a tax, after all their "promise" was not to raise taxes, and despite the fact that the bill itself even said it was a penalty (not a "tax"). However, according to the Constitution, any piece of legislation that generates revenue, tax, etc. MUST ORIGINATE IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. And "Obamacare" did NOT originate in the House, it originated in the Senate; Therefore, the truth is that it is NOT "constitutional" . It does in fact violate the Constitution, but I guess that doesn't matter any more - although some of us think it SHOULD matter.
Michael D.
3:40 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Actually it was originally crafted in the House in November of 2009. It was restructured by the Senate in 2010. Which is a legal part of the process called the reconcillation process.
Sandy Heins
8:13 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I cannot understand why anyone wouldn't love Obamacare. Our family is already using it and it's great. My grand daughter has an audoimmune disease. She's in college and is able to be on her parents insurance, otherwise she probably would have tried to get into a college in Massachusetts so she could use their healthcare. (that by the way was one good thing Romney did for Mass) And my Medicare costs have GONE DOWN. You know it wasn't the insurance company that decided to be nice and lower it's prices. No, it is Obama's healthcare. Thanks President Obama

You're not familiar with the 10th Ammendment to the United States Constitution?
Michael D.
9:33 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
Up until the 10th amendment was quite power full until the 1860's. Then when some states used their 10th amendment rights, their was a war. After the war the 10th amendment lost a lot of power. That is why Federal Laws are more powerful than Sate laws.
Who is WILLIAM BINNEY?
1:19 am on Sunday, November 11, 2012
Megan Hendricks,
Like Michael said, check out the 10th Amendment. The States created the Federal Govt, therefore the States have the ultimate power. Go read the 10th Amendment, it's right there in black and white.
Isn't there a Federal Law stating marijuana is illegal? What do you think the States are doing when they vote for legalizing medical marijuana.........or like last week when WA and CO voted to completely decriminalize it? That's the States NULLIFYING Federal Law.
Who are people in DC to tell all 330 millions of us what to do? That may be the world you prefer to live, but it isn't how Justice is served and sure and the hell isn't the Liberty afforded under that Constitution you fail to understand.
Oh, did you see there were 4 other States to basically nullify the individual mandate of Obamacare?
Who is WILLIAM BINNEY?
1:30 am on Sunday, November 11, 2012
Sandy Heins,
You need to be thanking people like my family for your cheaper Medicare costs. You know, the Medicare cost I've already been paying for my entire working life. So in addition to helping fund Medicare through the fruits of my labor..........the President you hail believes I should purchase a product I do not want.
Please tell me why I should be applauding this? Should I applaud you saving money as I am forced to purchase something I do not want?
Or should I applaud because the insurance for my 4 children and wife doubled.........and this upcoming year it will rise again........all due to implementing Obamacare......and guess what caused the biggest increase??? Allowing ADULTS to remain on their parents insurance.
I do realize we have a nation of grown children, but c'mon, up to the age of 26 is still considered a child? Grow up people.
By they way Sandy, that medical system you seem to hail is hindering that autoimmune disease from being healed. I have no idea what she has, but I guarantee you she will not find the healing she needs from a MD........but at least at least you guys are saving money as my middle class family is forced to subsidize it. Yep, you are right....I'm not sure why we all do not love Obamacare.

James Bege

So important that ALL voters read the Amendment provisions ahead of time.It's not just the presidential election but we vote Senate and amendments as well! This goes for both parties! I think that explanations of the proposed amendments should be written in layman's terms. I understood them but most people don't take the time to read and dissect! If you did, good for you!
Michael D.
11:21 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I had good pamplet a friend found online with the pro/cons and three different explanation of each admendment. I shared it with people. I knew how I was going to vote before I entered the booth on the admendments.
Liberty lover Bill
7:04 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
To Samuel Clemens ( and others inflicted with like views) individual rights is what made America one of the greatest societies this planet has ever known. For thousands of years individual rights was non existent. The people have always been ruled by some form of priest class or king leaving the common man subject to their whims. Along comes the idea of individual rights and became a game changer for humanity. The founders believed that man was subject to no other man. As an INDIVIDUAL you had a right to life, liberty, and property which no king or priest could admonish, reduce, or deny the individual without due process.
Now, pay attention Samuel, this is where I prove your ignorance. In a "Democracy" (which is what our public schools systems teach) the majority rule. We can look at this as mob-rule if you'd like Sammy. In a mob ruled society 51% of the people can vote to put Samuel in a cotton field to pick cotton from dawn to dusk without pay and without the right to petition a government for inhumane treatment. In a society with INDIVIDUAL PROTECTIONS under a rule of law, even if 98% of the people voted to put Samuel in chains to pick cotton for the betterment of Samuel's master, Samuel can flip off the 98% of the people who voted his fate because INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS protects Samuel from becoming someone's slave. So Sammy boy, you might want to re think your position.

Liberty Lover Bill,
You obviously haven't read anything I have posted on the Patch.
I'm not on of the wolves voting what's for dinner, I am always the sheep......but unlike the rest of the sheeple in the country, I will not submit to the unlawful authority.
Democracy=Mob rule
Republic=Law rule
I am well aware of the reality, hence me railing against the injustices I see. I sincerely wish all would look up the definition of Liberty and then tell me how much Liberty we have in America today.
My mainstay sign for protests always has one side saying "Legalize Liberty"..........Bill, you are attempting to preach to the choir........ Now only if we can get more and more to join our choir.
7:29 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
It is a sad day when we admonish the right to life of the unborn and leave that right up to someone else. I was always taught that every life had a purpose...how does our constitution protect those without a voice?
1:17 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
You people are idiots. Voting YES on Amendment 1 wouldn't have given Florida the right to opt out of Obamacare, it's a federal law that's been upheld by the US Supreme Court. It just would have let people say they don't like it and waste about $20 million tax dollars losing in court. Seriously, attempt to report facts rather than your wish list.
Jc Mcmullen
6:13 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
Sorry to disagree but several states have already passed the same law and I would rather spend 20million fighting it than a couple of trillion paying for it!
Who is WILLIAM BINNEY?
1:35 am on Sunday, November 11, 2012
10th Amendment......read it sometime RD. I wouldn't say you are an idiot, but definitely ignorant of the facts.
1:22 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
Oh, BS you're pro-life and the poor unborn. How about the pregnant woman who's been diagnosed with cancer? Why should she have to sacrifice her life? You can't be pro-life if you're sentencing that woman to death. If you don't want to have an abortion, don't have one. Spare me your life begins at conception. If that's the case, then let men carry the fetal matter to term because it can't survive outside the womb otherwise. Then let's see how they feel about abortion and rape.
Who is WILLIAM BINNEY?
1:37 am on Sunday, November 11, 2012
What does pregnancy have to do with cancer????????????
1:41 am on Wednesday, November 14, 2012
Ugh! Men. I know this is hard for you to understand but pregnant women can also have cancer. When this happens, a choice needs to be made between the mother's life and the fetus. Since you are against abortions, you are putting the mother's life at risk to bear the child. This makes you a one-man death panel playing judge and jury over a situation you really have absolutley no business making any decisions about. So much for pro-life since you have now killed the mother.
As far as the 10th Amendment goes, you have an interesting interpretation. Keep getting your information from Fox News, Sam.

Haven't rented a DVD/BluRay for years. We rent movies on lines from Apple iTunes and watch on our Apple TV.
Haven't rented a DVD/BluRay for years. We rent movies on lines from Apple iTunes and watch on our Apple TV.
Same here, I download everything, we haven't rented a movie in years. What I like about the downloading is that we see documentaries, movies and a lot of kids stuff as well (we have 3 children). I try to look for the best quality but the kids don't really notice when they are 'in the movie' anyway.
I love my DVD player. I have a small DVD binder of some favourite movies of mine and keep it close to the TV for easy access when I want to watch a movie. I spend enough time on the computer that I like to have my collection of discs to watch. I've got some TV episodes as well as favourite movies, new and old. It's not a big collection, but it's mine and I don't have to jump through hoops and pay fees when I want to watch a movie.
As far as the rentals, I was doing that for a while but there are really not many such options available anymore. In the end I was finding it cheaper to spend $10 and buy the DVD brand new from ebay (and then have it to watch as long and as many times as I like) than to pay $6-7 to rent the late release for just 1-2 days.
P.S. Isn't it funny this thread comes up now Harold? lol
I also have a steady stream of reserved movies available at the libraries to the point that I rarely rented from Rogers. However, I've always been torn over whether video loans are indeed the way tax-payer money should be used. They have been duplicating a service (and a non-essential one at that) that is offered by private industry and this practice has almost assuredly assisted in the early decline of the industry (including several mom-and-pop video rental outlets). I just wonder if movies and video games should be a priority when text books are in short supply at some schools.
However, the other face of the capitalist in me said, "If they are going to take the taxes out of my pocket to provide this service then I may as well make use of it."
We rented DVD's during the run-up to the Oscars. It's our annual tradition to try and watch every Oscar-nominated movie, so we rented a few discs to help us toward that goal. We also rent movies via the Xbox (which are not physical discs, but nonetheless it's still a rental since you don't get to keep it). Also, we subscribe to Netflix and watch movies that way. And we download occasionally. We've used the library for borrowing TV show DVD's but never for movies, not sure why.
We rent a ton of movies from the Zip Kiosk in Metro stores. At a toonie for the latest movies and a loonie for slightly older movies, it is a wonderful deal.
Canadian Capitalist -- Helping you invest & prosper
It looks like this thread should be moved to the frugal section, Lol.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
Movie Gallery is also down the tubes. One where I live closed a few years ago... and it's no wonder. I think it was $9-12 per rental!! My spouse told me I wasn't allowed to go there anymore (we agreed on this).
A local shop has since opened at $5 for new releases and is doing quite well. The last time I rented a movie, it was to show at a club, so I figured a pirated version wasn't a fantastic idea.
I do enjoy buying Blu ray's and always think it's nice to have a physical library. Much the same as I like to buy CD's and not always download.
I have rented and used Rogers in Whitby but when they closed down we haven't rented since.
I would still rent but to me I just don't think there have been that many films that I would like to see but will always pick up dvd's / blu rays once they drop off from the initial release prices.

Rules:On the continent of Muladhara, the Priestesses run amok preparing and decorating the city for the upcoming Festival of the Serpent of Light. Thousands of beggars, farmers, nobles, wisemen, initiates and spiritually-seeking pilgrims will begin their 7-Day Pilgrimage in Muladhara. The Festival of the Serpent of Light takes place every 616 years and initiates, from the 7 continents and 7 corners of the world, will test their mind, body and soul on this most hallowed of voyages. The Sacred Pilgrimage has, since time immemorial, provided relief and answers to truth seekers. Although the 7-Day Pilgrimage has occurred many times throughout history, its practices and requirements are shrouded in mystery and locked with esoteric knowledge. The Priestesses who command the ceremony leading to the Festival are sworn to secrecy under penalty of death and Excommunication from the governing philosophy of Muladhara. These Priestesses, armed with Arcane knowledge and powerful magick, lead initiates through Day 1 of the Festival. Pilgrims, often referred to as Geomancers, are required to fast for the entire week, to avoid 100% of negative emotions (anger, envy, prejudice, etc.) while simultaneously learning the mantras, magicks and secrets of each of the 7 continents.
A group of 5 spiritual ascetics has settled into their designated chambers in a small, but highly ornate stone tavern. At the break of first sunrise, the 5 will begin their spiritual conquest over the forces of good and evil at the Temple of Atma. Therein, they will learn the knowledge necessary to overcome the trials and tribulations of the 7 continents, all in the aspiration of reaching Nirvana.
-1st rule of the 7-Day Pilgrimage, DO NOT TALK ABOUT the 7-Day Pilgrimage.
-There will be a heavy emphasis on character development in this RP. You must be able to post at least 2 full and detailed paragraphs.
-There WILL be Magick, of Elemental origin. Everyone will start out with the ability to utilize some form of elemental magics. Magic in this RP will be used for more than just combat.
-In regards to combat, don't expect too much of it.
-Everyone's magical abilities will improve as the RP goes on at an equal pace.
I'm looking for exactly 4 RPers, with which to occupy each available elemental magic with. (Fire, Air, Earth, Wood, Water) I'm not going to go into further detail, because I don't feel like writing a huge interest check if nobody is interested. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Awaken, Mitochondria.

Atlanta, Georgia isn't exactly known as hotbed for electronic music, but LE CASTLE VANIA (a.k.a. Dylan Eiland) is doing his bit to change that. He burst on the scene in 2006 with a buzz-worthy remix of "Black Eyes" by fellow Atlantans Snowden, and quickly earned a rep as an artist to watch. Part of the new wave of American DJ/producers who've shifted EDM's centre of gravity Stateside, he's earning rave reviews this summer as one of the stars of the Identity Festival tour (alongside the likes of Eric Prydz, Nero, Wolfgang Gartner and Madeon), while busily prepping his debut album. Here, he chats with Toronto's DJ Soundbwoy (a.k.a. Chris Wilson).
CLICK HERE to follow DJ Soundbwoy on Twitter.
DJ SOUNDBWOY: Where did the name Le Castle Vania come from?
LE CASTLE VANIA: Umm, it's a boring story. There's nothing really interesting about it — I just basically made it up.
DJS: What made you get into DJing?
LCV: Well, first thing, I just really loved music and electronic music. The thing that inspired me, though, to really start DJing was when I was 16: I tried to sneak into this club to see some DJs, but it was an 18 and up club. I had a fake ID, but got totally rejected at the door. A bunch of my homies were with me and they had all gotten in, so I had to go sit in the car and wait for them. The car happened to be parked behind the club, and as I was chilling there, bummed that I didn't get in, I just stared seeing all the DJs coming and going out the back door. Something just clicked in my head and I was, like, if I was a DJ I could get in wherever I wanted, see the DJs I wanted to see, and be a part of that crew and lifestyle. So that was kind of thing that inspired me to start producing and DJing.
DJS: Was it always your main goal to start producing music?
LCV: I was always more inspired by writing and creating music, 'cause that's where my passion is. DJing, though, is kind of like the reward for creating music, 'cause that's when you get to unleash it on the audience and see people go off to it.
DJS: You don't hear of many electronic music artists from Atlanta. That being said, what were your musical influences and how do you try to incorporate that into your sound?
LCV: Atlanta is kind of known for being more of a hip-hop city as far as music goes. But there's actually a lot more going on in Atlanta — there's an electronic scene that has grown there, and there's always been a cool indie rock scene there as well. But you know, my whole sound and vibe is very inspired by the fusion of electronic music and rock music. I sometimes deviate from it and do a lot of different things, such as the Cee-Lo remix, which had a lot more disco influences. I try to take influences from all over and from all the different music that I like.
Cee-Lo – Fuck You (Le Castle Vania Remix): LISTEN TO IT HERE
DJS: How did the "Fuck Yess" monthly party come about?
LCV: Fuck Yess was a party I started in Atlanta because at the time there was no club or venue that you could go to and hear the type of music I was producing — like that indie electro, more aggressive dance music with an indie rock influence. So basically the vibe of the party is buck wild-ass people and music.
DJS: What's the weirdest or coolest thing you've experienced playing a venue or festival?
LCV: The coolest thing is always connecting with the people like when you play at a big festival and you've got thousands of people with all that energy coming back at you. As for the weird stuff, I've experienced so much — but what happens on the road stays on the road.
DJS: Having been an underground DJ who's emerged onto the wider EDM scene, how do you feel about A-Trak's article in The Huffington Post about "button pushers"?
LCV: I'm not going to go into any comments about other artists and their opinions. What matters to me is that I came up learning to DJ on vinyl, and learned the ropes the right way and the real way. But at the end of the day, these kids are coming out to part — so if someone is screening a presentation that sets it off, and those kids have a fun time or it heightens the experience to a level they couldn't do otherwise, then I ain't mad at them. Everyone just needs to just chill the f**k out and let everybody do their hustle. If that's not how you want to do things, then you don't do things that way — you know what I'm saying? We just got to let everybody do their thing. Nobody needs to be trying call anybody out or trying to hate on everyone. The scene is growing and let's just be happy about that. Every act in electronic music that gets bigger creates more opportunity for every other act in electronic music, and that's the reality of it. I respect everyone's hustle. Let's just let them do their shit the way they want to do it.
Kaskade – Turn It Down (Le Castle Vania Remix): LISTEN TO IT HERE
DJS: With the release of your full-length album coming up, what can fans expect to hear?
LCV: Well, I mean, it's an album so the whole point is to create a journey. But you'll just have to wait and hear it. It is definitely a diverse range of my sound, though.
DJS: What is one thing our readers should definitely know about Le Castle Vania?
LCV: There's only one thing I want readers to know, and it's my music. Go check out the Web site — there's tons of free stuff for download.
To download Le Castle Vania's newest track, "Play Loud," for free – CLICK HERE!
First thing you do when you wake up in the morning?
On tour I sleep until about 2-3pm, and then I go out and check the stage setup for that particular show.
When you were a kid what did you want to be when you grew up?
An animator/cartoonist.
Must-have item on your rider?
Bombay Sapphire.
Motto you live by?
"Nobody gets out alive, bring it hard!"
Turntables or CDJs?
I learned on turntables, but basically my shows got so crazy that the needle would skip and cause too many technical issues, so I had to switch to CDJs.

Starting at $23,995 | Starting at 21 MPG City - 31 MPG Highway
Provided by NADAguides.com
The 2012 Volkswagen GTI is a FWD performance compact hatchback available in three-door and five-door trim levels. The GTI is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that produces 200 hp and 207 lb-ft of torque, for a 0-60 time of 6.8 seconds. Transmissions consists of a base 6-speed manual transmission and a 6-speed DSG� automatic transmission. Fuel mileage is an EPA estimated 21 mpg city and 31 mpg highway. A cross differential system and track tuned suspension enable the GTI to handle light and grip corners. Features include bi-xenon headlights, 18-inch alloy wheels, multi-function steering wheel, keyless access with push button start, leather seats, navigation system, touch-screen stereo and hands-free phone capability. Safety is comprised electronic stability control, Intelligent Crash Response, six airbags with side curtain protection, anti-lock braking system and hydraulic brake assist. The GTI is backed by a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty.
The GTI sticks with its model heritage, offering surprisingly quick acceleration and crisp handling while sipping fuel. Handling in the GTI is light and quick, and the GTI offers interior appointments that are more premium compared to other sporty small cars, as well as safety and entertainment features that are otherwise in the realm of luxury vehicles. Price is a big selling point for the GTI as well; starting under $24,000, the GTI offers a lot of performance for less money than other hot hatches and a lot less than all-wheel-drive machines like the Subaru Impreza WRX and Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.
For 2012, the Volkswagen GTI receives only minor changes. Autobahn editions get aluminum interior trim and push button start, a golf ball-style shift knob (on cars equipped with the DSG transmission), as well as new ten-spoke, 18-inch Serron alloy wheels. Those models, plus all GTIs with sunroof and navigation, also get LED daytime running lights. A new GTI with Convenience and Sunroof adds a power tilt/slide sunroof, leather-trimmed steering wheel and the Premiun VIII touchscreen stereo with in-dash CD changer.
The front-wheel-drive GTI moves authoritatively thanks to its turbocharged, 2.0L direct-injected 4-cylinder engine that makes 200 horsepower and 207 ft-lb, which kicks in as low as 1,800 rpm. The engine's especially responsive, whether coupled with either the standard 6-speed manual gearbox or optional Direct Shift Gearbox.

"TCB Take care of business" Elvis Presley The business line for women who know how to balance their ambitions with their hobbies and private lives. A metal zip delineates the form, becoming both a distinctive design feature and the access point to a world of practicality. Open it, and inside you will find a world of immaculately designed interior space. Close it and you will protect that world with a softness that is made not only of forms and materials but also of new concepts and features. A thin silver trim on the handles distinguishes the line, creating a subtle harmony with the metal zip and expressing an exquisite sense of sober, soft and clean-cut versatility.

Y'know, I think that in honor of the last page of this thread, and to help completely and utterly refute Williams Law, we should spend the rest of this thread being as solemn and non-silly as possible. Who's with me?!
Stuart wrote:Nope, maybe you have the monopoly on that one?
That is, in some ways, strangely satisfying that my form of crazy is still at least one notch off the norm.As to being solemn and unsilly, I think it is a stacked deck against it, but I'm ready to be proven wrong.

I'll never be able to look at a chihuahua without laughing silently. "dingo rat" is just such a lovely description. Dogs smaller than cats are just plain WRONG.

I is what I is and I does what I does; ain't no reason why, guess it's just because.
Also, "Owlbait" is possibly the best name /ever/ for a chihuahua.
"Wall-eyed Dingo Rat"...yes that is one to remember...8)Though I have seen a dog smaller, yes smaller than a Chihuahua...a miniature daschund. And By miniature I mean ITTY-BITTY...it was maybe all of 8 inches long...fully grown.It wasn't an outdoor or indoor dog, it was a Desktop Dog...just what we all need, a dog that fits on your Desktop...8)If you could only train it to write for you...Though I think it should be an ownership requirment to give it a name so long that when written out in 12pt Times New Roman Font it wouls literally be longer than said dog...and if you can do that with 'bob', it's prolly a fetus...and bwahahahahahaha for the magical counting post count; 12345!
I have decided that Frankie Big Ears is not a boring old chihuahua, but one of the fancy new hybrids, a la "labradoodles" and "buggles". Thus, he is either a "ringo" -- the aforementioned rat-dingo cross -- or a "hackal", hamster + jackal.(Could also be a "jamster", I suppose.)
I used to call my X's chihuahua "field goal" or "Football Dog". I'll let you guess why...

If you are unfamiliar with this type of car it is all wheel drive with a 40% front 60% rear torque bias so it still feels like a rear wheel drive car but handles snow rather well for having wide tires.

Agreed. Whether or the technology is worth it is one thing. But there is nothing "unpunk" about wanting to hear the records the way they are supposed to sound. As far as "punk being at an awkward age" I'd say that happened around 1983.
Man, sorry to say this year's list is pretty weak. Yuck
@zyxwvut - '(I Am a) Tree' was written by Doug Gillard for his band Gem before he was in GBV. It was actually released and can be found on Youtube with Gillard singing the vocals. It's a great version. Pollard liked it and redid it for GBV.
I gotta agree with the people in the piece who argue that GBV's songs are generally not simple at all. I think lyrically and melodically they are quite sophisticated. Pollard knows how to make a few notes go a long way by choosing them well. I believe (or at least hope) that GBV will go down in rock annals as one of the best bands ever, to the degree that such an objective statement can be made.
Good piece.
@Ezra Feinberg, Citay
"Either "A Salty Salute" OR a kind of random Tobin Sprout song (I think it's Tobin Sprout, maybe it's Pollard, I'm not sure) called "I Am A Tree." A late-90s power pop jam, totally hi-fi and normal pop song length. I've moshed alone to that song. "
Definitely not Tobin Sprout. "I Am A Tree" was written by Doug Gillard.
Not by listening, MC, but by over-hyping much mediocrity--and the occasional decent band.
Oh my god are you crazy? The Advantage has a great talent on doing these songs, who cares if you aren't playing on the NES? Their objective is to remember your childhood by listening to their music. In 2010 they were on Japan doing a nactional tour on it, the only bad thing is that they haven't released more albums since 2008, and the Live Albums are hard as hell to find around the internet which makes the band more interesting.
Hillstock 2011 is actually June 3-5th because there is a kickoff party at 385 Kent with the So So Glos, Eskalators, Toothaches and more!
The most exciting part is that legendary hip hop DJ Grand Wizzard Theodore will be headlining the Saturday block party, which is also free!
I've said this before and I'll say it again....Does anyone actually like tyler the creator and OF..whatever the fuck it is, or is this some hip trend where you act like you enjoy something for its assumed artistic value? I mean if everyone cool on the internet is saying it's cool it's gotta be good right? This music is jokes and everyone getting caught up in the hype is the punchline.
the writer has to remember that this was Tyler's first release in mainstream music- nobody in mainstream knew about Bastard when he released it. This was really his introduction to the music world, so most people haven't heard his style/material before. It may be old to those of us who have heard OFWGKTA before, but he HAD to focus on the same material in this album since it is his first real introduction. Anyways, it was good! Maybe you should listen to the lyrics again- they are actually pretty good (I am still just catching the meaning of certain lines/verses now, after about my 15th listen to the album- this points to some serious lyrical creativity to me).
I found this album to be really enjoyable. How you can call him uncreative is beyond me. As far as I, and many others, and concerned, Tyler and OFWGKTA are a breath of fresh air in a genre that is currently stale. Artists such as Big Sean, Gucci Mane and Wiz Khalifa deserve to be called out for their lack of creativity, not someone who just released an album unlike one heard in many years.
@Osma: You're right (about the Domo Genesis rhyme, not the other thing), the misattributed quotation has been corrected. Thanks.
Sutton mate your a fucking clown, solid album, eat a dick you pretentious knob
That wasn't him with the "updated Biggie rhyme" that was Domo Genesis. If you are goinf to write a poorly written review as you did at least get all your facts straight.
That actually just doesn't make any sense. By taking the time to listen to young bands, we're creating an environment where they feel they shouldn't be criticized?
"So many of the young bands here seem to feel it's their god-given right to never have anyone criticize their music, that they should be praised unconditionally for summoning the guts to have left whatever shitty town they came from in the first place to make music here at all."
The L is as guilty as many others of creating the atmosphere that breeds this sort of arrogant entitlement. You put in the time to check out these artists the hipper than thou blogosphere are always going on about and almost invariably a boring exercise in futility is the end result. Why? Well, it's hard to be won over by many of these amateurish upstarts. (And before you get off on a 'hey, they don't all have to be musos' rant, can we agree The Ramones were amateurish but had lotsa heart? And tunes, too.) This latest batch of "artists" seem to approach making music as something to do while they figure out where to go for an MBA; a 'first job out of college' experience, if you will. Zzzz.
But, here's the more important and determining issue: in the end, none of these bands will be around 5 years from now—oh, XL Records: so much to answer for—either by design or as a result of the fickle nature of their increasingly pliable fanbases, which are either bored or—depending on the speed and level of notoriety gained by the artist in question—consumed by the spirit of backlash 6 months into the artists' arrival on the scene. Despite a band's ardent desire to make a realistic go of it, no one with that kind of following can aspire to any sort of longevity. Of course, I suspect these artists have no intent to do so, and their fans, cut from the same cloth of ADD, know this and react accordingly.
So, why we should give a damn?
Never thought of myself as a 'tough guy critic' but now that you've called me out, I think I'll embrace it! Thanks, 'eventsfashionsexbooks.' / Craig

Ive never had problems with using a Grass Type... probably because a lot of Grass Types are dual typed.
My Pokemon White FC: 4728-4965-2910
My Pokemon White 2 FC: 4513-8303-2953
Grass is niche defensive because of Earthquake and Thunderbolt resists.
So Sableye, Spiritomb, 4th Gen Rotom appliances, Golurk, and Jellicent are pure offensive now? Cool story bro.
Considering the type only has fourteen fully evolved non-legendaries to begin with, I'd say six pure defensive 'mons and a couple of tanks is enough to call it balanced.
Yes, stats do have an effect on battle. That's not what this is about. It's about typings.
Grass isn't offensive, yeah, but resisting two common moves doesn't automatically make the actual type defensive.
Given the two types' moves, I would say that Grass and Poison are more annoyer types than defensive types. I'd say that Steel is pretty defensive because of its type resistances.
It is you, it is you, it is all for you.
I don't think Grass is the worst type to be honest. If you look at common elements, it does resist water and electric moves. And most are dual types, so they get the added benefits (negatives) of another type. Poison is probably a type I would consider worse than Grass. As for the starters, I actually think they made their Grass types quite appealing.
Grass isn't bad. It just needs help, either through dual typing or support pokemon. I'm not a big fan of them myself cause I like my pokemon to be straightforward battlers, and grass pokemon usually aren't.
a few that I do like:
It all matters on how you use it.
Gamefreak needs to look at the type matchup list again and make some more sensible decisions about what types are weak to poison.

Movie reminds writer he was too slow for American treasure, Jackie Robinson
All my memories of Robinson were enhanced the other day when I dragged myself to see �42 � The Jackie Robinson Story." As a movie, it was OK, perhaps 2.5 stars. But for me, this Hollywood version of a segment of Robinson�s life was chock full o� nostalgia.
