It is amazing what can be learned and implemented in 9 weeks.
- March 23rd, 2014
- Write comment
One of the joys I have is being a volunteer coordinator for Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University. This 9 week class is held by my church at an offsite location. From January until March, couples and individuals committed every Thursday evening to learn personal finance principles. For some, they were already using these strategies with their income while others were in debt from credit cards, college, car and home equity loans.
The photo you see below is our graduation night. Not only did the class receive education on how to effectively setup a zero-based budget but also how to payoff debt utilizing the debt snowball. There is much more to the class beyond these two points and you can learn about them at Dave Ramsey's website.
(In the photo you will see all graduates holding one of the following a 100 Grand or PayDay candy bar. The ultimate personal finance graduation gift.)

What's for dinner? Do you find yourself being asked this time after time and you don't know the answer? Perhaps you constantly find yourself going through the drive-through or eating a frozen pizza for dinner. Or maybe you are wandering aimlessly through the isles at your local grocery store trying to find something that is quick and easy.
Planning a menu will help save your sanity, your wallet, and allow your family to eat healthier meals. But still some of us still find ourselves asking ourselves what's for dinner after a long day of work.
Below are some tips to help assist you in planning a menu for your family.
• Make a list of your family's favorite meals. Group the meals into categories (chicken, beef, Italian etc.) Start a recipe book for your children with these recipes. I can't count the number of times I called my mother asking her how to make some of my favorite dishes. This would make a great gift for a child who is leaving home.
• Make a list of everything that you have in your pantry, freezer and refrigerator. You will refer to this list and try to plan your meals around what you already have.
• Plan your menu based on what is on sale. Check the Shopping Wizard at savannahnow.com/savvyshopper to see what is on sale at area grocery stores. The wizard is searchable and will show you which store has the best price on each item. Simply enter the item into the search engine, click "search" and the wizard will list the stores who have the item on sale and the price. It also matches the sales up with coupons from the Savannah Morning News.
• Look at your family's weekly schedule. Plan your meals around the amount of time that you will have available to prepare, cook and eat each meal. If you know you have a 6 p.m. baseball game, then it may not be the best night for a roast. Instead, choose easy and quick meals such as tacos or pizza.
• Use themes to help you plan your menu. Select a different type of food for each day of the week (Monday, chicken; Tuesday, beef; Wednesday, Italian, etc.) Then plan a variety of meals based on that day's theme. (You can refer to your list of favorite meals to help you complete the menu.)
• Post your menu on the side of your refrigerator. Older children can help with some of the meal preparation if they know what you are having for dinner. Having those potatoes already peeled when you walk in the door will definitely be a big help.
Be flexible, a meal plan does not have to be set in stone. If you do not feel like having whatever you had planned for dinner that evening simply switch it out with a meal you planned to have a different day. Just having a list of meals that you can prepare will make things so much easier.
• Check your menu each evening and make sure that you have everything for the next day's meal. Do you need to take ground meat out of the freezer? Do you need to pick up potatoes?
• Prepare as much as you can the night before. Can you slice the vegetables, brown the meat etc.
• Consider using a crock pot. You can start your dinner in the morning before you leave for work and it will be ready when you get home.
Send your tips or questions to Savvy Shopper Michelle Rubrecht at firstname.lastname@example.com or post them to Savannah Savvy Shopper on Facebook.

I need a logo created for the site that will be called CriminalPages.com
The idea behind the site is similar to yellow pages but instead of locating the information on any person the site will focus on locating the criminal information in a format similar to yellow pages.

KickballSF Spring Bus Rides (Wednesday and Thursday)
Event Details
Ensure yourselve a spot on the bus by purchasing your ticket ahead of time. This same page is selling tickets for both the Thursday and Wednesday night league, so be sure to read the description carefully for your night and to buy the correct ticket.
Thursdays - If your game is at 6:30 you're taking the early bus (scheduled to leave Bar None at 5:45) from Bar None (you must come back from the field on the bus immediately after your game, you can't ride back on the bus after the 7:15 games). If you have a 7:15 game, then you're taking the late bus (scheduled to leave Bar None at 6:45). When the bus is picking you up from the field after your games it will be gone by 7:20 with people from the early games and by 8:05 with people from the late games, so be sure to head straight to the bus before those times or else risk getting left behind.
Wednesdays - discontinuing the Wednesday bus as not enough people were riding it
Please either have your ticket printed out and ready to show when you get on the bus or have it pulled up on your phone.
If the sale has ended, but there are still tickets remaining, that's how many spots are left for that bus ride. You can pay cash at the door of the bus to claim those, assuming someone doesn't get there before you.
Email me at email@example.com with any questions.

This one is the one I don't get. I run a w2k prof.
I got confused at this pointIt told me to add a registry value and it was already there. The other thing was that the only way I could access what they (M$) told me is from a file and winreg is in a registry key. Im confused, I don't get on how I can apply that feature. Thx in advance.Select winreg, click the Security menu, and then click Permissions.
Protect the registry from anonymous access
The default permissions do not restrict remote access to the registry. Only administrators should have remote access to the registry, because the Windows 2000 registry editing tools support remote access by default. To restrict network access to the registry:
Add the following key to the registry:
Value Name
Select winreg, click the Security menu, and then click Permissions.
Set the Administrators permission to Full Control, make sure no other users or groups are listed, and then click OK.
The security permissions (ACLs) set on this key define which users or groups can connect to the system for remote registry access. In addition, the AllowedPaths subkey contains a list of keys to which members of the Everyone group have access, notwithstanding the ACLs on the winreg key. This allows specific system functions, such as checking printer status, to work correctly regardless of how access is restricted via the winreg registry key. The default security on the AllowedPaths registry key grants only Administrators the ability to manage these paths. The AllowedPaths key, and its proper use, is documented in Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q155363.

Redesign: Design NotesJune 08, 2004
I had planned to wrap up the redesign analysis series with a look at the design elements of Proton, but plans change.
Partly because I was tackling low-hanging fruit first, and partly because I needed the space to think after the many, many comments last month's redesign prompted, I left a deeper look at the design elements until the end.
But extra time brings extra perspective, and looking back 'Proton' as it was released solved some problems and introduced others. Overall result — not the success one would hope a redesign should be. Sifting through the comments, a few trends emerge. The header is universally seen as a problem area due to low visibility of navigation and clutter, the content area is almost universally seen as an improvement over Radar.
It's interesting to note that the new header spurred the redesign in November, but it has remained unchanged since as the content area got all the focus recently. Note to self: don't let ideas sit for too long. It's also interesting to note that while Proton began its life on a Windows CRT, most later development was on a Mac LCD. The gamma differences are startling when it comes to the yellow areas, which is something I realized only after launch.
At the moment incremental adjustments are being made to a separate copy of the stylesheet, which you can trigger as your new default stylesheet for this site to watch the progress. Some things may stay, some may change radically, and I have no great plan in mind other than to see where I can take this. At some point Proton will be finished; for now it's a work in progress, and you're all invited to watch.
Reader Comments
Now *that* I like =)
Look forward to seeing the progress
Much better, I agree with everyone else. But I have to say that I liked the yellow side column better. The grey makes the site seem too bland.
I've also had problems with yellows and light greens on LCD vs CRT monitors. I like what I see so far… should be fun to watch it evolve :)
Having set the new, in-progress stylesheet as my default I can say that I really like the changes to the main navigation. Moving it above the blue section of the header and making it appear "tabbish" is more encouraging for … grabbing hold of the site, so to speak, and using it. The narrower blue area is less monolithic and offputting. Not that it was as bad a design as others might have led you to believe in the first place, Dave. The innovations that it comprises are not at all unappreciated even if I, or others, don't agree with every design element.
I also think that the yellow side column looked better and the gray is a little bland. I've had problems with colors looking different on LCDs and sometimes even disappearing. I used #F5F5F5 for zebra strips in a table (for tabular data of course) it looked good on a CRT but totally disappeared on a LCD laptop.
I like this "live" css redesign idea. I Look forward to the changes. It's kind of like a "little secret" hehe. I honestly don't know how I've been getting first post lately, just good timing I suppose.
The new header is much, much better.
Also, you're right about the yellows – I recently redesigned my site with a pale yellow splash that looks fairly striking on my desktop monitor, but is basically invisible on my Dell laptop screen.
Let me just say I liked Proton from the start. However, two things bothered me: the header image and the fact that the top navigation didn't work in Opera 7.5. In this new version both issues have been adressed, and mezzoblue is finally working to full extent in my favorite browser (Radars top nav was always broken in Opera). Nicley done sir! *two thumbs up* : )
I too like the live CSS concept :) And I think what you've got so far for the revised header is quite a bit more balanced than the initial release.
Now if you could only get a handle on the borken right column float in IE/Win :)
I must say that I was among the people who thought the new design was awful, but now I think about it, the only real problem is the header. I tried out the new header, and it's much better! Congratulations!
The changes you've made via the in-progress stylesheet constitute a definite improvement. I rather like the grey sidebar, insofar as the design just seems better without two shades of yellow. Along with the more useable navigation, the larger area of whitespace and more explicit mezzoblue logo in the header, the design is attaining clarity, becoming more focused. And that gives it a much more assured air, in my humble opinion.
Hi Dave:
I was wondering if you could provide a link to your first released Proton site, so that we, your rapt audience, can compare the initial release with your design-in-progress. I liked the initial redesign, although I didn't find it as dramatic as Radar. I appreciate the small touches in Photoshop–tiny lines, dots, etc. I think that aesthetics does have a lot to do with usability, and stickyness, in that an visually attractive web site operates as an invisible marketing tool. To put it plainly: no one will want to use your site if it's ugly. I've learned so much from your designs of Mezzoblue and CSS Zen Garden. Thank you for pushing the envelope.

The luxurious quality of our embossed covers and cases makes them the perfect choice for corporate gifts and for making a great impression on prospects at promotional events. We also sell many embossed cases and covers to companies and schools for use as protection for mobile devices issued to students, employees or faculty members.
What Are Embossed Covers and Cases?
Embossed covers and cases are smartphone and tablet cases that are manufactured out of either vegan polyurethane leather or genuine leather. The leather covering of the cases is stamped to leave behind the imprint of a company logo or another symbol or emblem. The embossed decoration appears the same color as the rest of the case and adds texture to the design.
Appeal of Embossed Cases and Covers
Many people prefer the look of embossed covers and cases because they promote companies and organizations in a subtler way. While you can easily see the logo or other graphic on the case, it does not stand out in the same bold way that a printed or engraved graphic does. This makes the embossed cases and covers an excellent way to maintain a professional look while still promoting a company, group or school.
Types of Embossed Covers and Cases
Here at Custom Logo Cases, we make shopping for corporate embossed cases and covers, school embossed covers and cases and promotional cases and covers with embossed decorations incredibly simple. Our collection is divided into four categories. You can click on the "Shop Now" button to see all of our:

ToriMonty needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 46 designs submitted by 13 freelance designers.
My name is Tori and I'm the creator of a Kinky Hair Monolgoue (http://myhairmonologue.blogspot.com). About a year ago, I decided to stop chemically straightening my hair and wear it in its natural kinky state. Kinky hair is similar to curly hair but it's tightly coiled. I started my blog to document my journey and connect with other women who were in the process of transitioning or had already successfully completed their journey. My blog captures the joy, pain and politics of natural hair while celebrating its beauty.
I'm overhauling the site to give it a more professional look that will attract more readers and advertisers. This logo will set the tone for that identity. I want something that is flirty (double entendre on "kinky") sophisticated, yet fun. It will appear on business card, the site (transitioning to WordPress) and other social media (Twitter, Facebook, etc.).
Site Name: A Kinky Hair Monologue
Tagline: Life on the Curly Side
My primary audience is African American women from 18-44. They are passionate about wearing their hair in its natural, curly/kinky state (i.e. Afro, locs, braids, etc.). I guesstimate that half of them are in the process of transitioning to the "curly side" and that the rest are actively wearing their hair in its natural state. In either case, they are hungry for information about hair care and maintenance, product reviews and styling tutorials. It's a very supportive community of women that are united in their love for natural hair and learning how to care for it. This site – and many others like it – is a source of inspiration, community, knowledge and entertainment.
Please do …
- Explore one option that use a dramatic strand of kinky hair for the letter 'i' in the word kinky
- Use vibrant colors
- Keep the design simple so it's easy to read (sorry it's so long)
- I'd appreciate your input on the file output. My immediate goals are to be able to use the logo on business cards, the site, Twitter and a WordPress header. So here are my thoughts:
o Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
o Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)
Please don't …
- Explore Afrocentric themes, symbols or patterns.
- Use any stock images or clip art in the logo

The work they're doing with H x H is consistently top-notch, and it's not being done on the cheap. And Chihayafuru is arguably the best show of the last year. Reports of their death continue to be greatly exaggerated and I still see no hard evidence they're in real trouble.
And you all suck, AO is an excellent show and kudos to BONES for daring to do something different with the sequel.

Only a small part of my post was part of the Madhouse discussion, anyway reposting what I said:
I'm liking the staff, I really enjoyed Mouryou no Hako it had great visuals and an excellent soundtrack along with its somewhat crossover in Blue Literature (Run! Melos) which was, not so coincidentally, the best arc of Blue Literature.
So I'm really looking forward to this.

Honestly, I think it's great that the director has found a consistent team who he's comfortable to work with, and it doesn't matter what studio produces the actual project. In the end, it's good news for everyone if they turn out a good product, and the only difference would be who is funding it and where the work is actually done physically.

Wow that did not take long for this movie to get almost instant hate right off of the premiere. People REALLY hated this movie off of the premiere and now I'm really curious and admittedly highly skeptical as to what it could have done to be so apparently bad. Guess I'll find out the real scoop when I go to see it, but I'll just say that the reaction doesn't surprise me for a number of reasons, most of which contribute to my skepticism.

To be honest the things I've heard sound like criticisms you could attribute to plenty of things that I often just don't see come up as total deal breakers which is frankly a little strange to me. Those two reviews you linked me seem like genuine attempts to dispassionately review/recommend the film to it's target audience though, which is frankly better than anything I've seen thus far. Very professional and considered (especially the latter one) so thanks for posting them.
I guess we'll see then, the one consensus I've noted is that it's a trend setter for visuals when it comes to animated film, which doesn't surprise me to hear after watching the trailers. To be honest reading the premise of the story I frankly don't and never did expect a plot line that would set the world on fire (and not just because the title bears an uncanny resemblance to a pretty crappy one shot 80's OVA), break cleanly from all established conventions, nor lean in any particular direction towards hard sci-fi or romance so I'm not really surprised to see evidence to that end. I do however find it amusing how selective the idea of tropes and conventions and how much of a detriment they can be to something seems to be though. Sometimes it's at the forefront of criticism, other times obvious tropes are completely ignored for the sake of ones own enjoyment and at this rate one might as well be able to flip a coin when it comes to when the idea of tropeiness is going to crop up and take center stage.

I think I was one of the very few people at the screening with any familiarity with the story of Nerawareta Gakuen, and my knowledge of that did help with certain parts of the film as it's something of a sequel to the original novel. The vast majority of the film has absolutely no reliance on the original novel at all and makes perfect sense without it, but there are certain moments that only really have the desired emotional impact if you know the original story, and I also think it makes some of the woollier plot elements clearer - but it doesn't completely excuse some of the gaps in the narrative.
As I've mentioned elsewhere, there are three plot points in the film which are poorly handled. Two of these are foreshadowed by throwaway lines of dialogue, but when they are eventually revealed leave far too many questions unanswered. The third, unfortunately, is the ending, where although all the dialogue makes sense the events which are taking place come so suddenly out of the blue without any explanation that it seems like complete nonsense.
It's definitely a film I want to see again - out of the reviews you've linked above I think the Chaos Agent one is very much in line with my own thoughts on it. I think the reactions of people who hated it are valid, because the climax is so confusing dramatically it pulled most of the audience out of the film, but the vast majority of the film is really very good indeed.

The dialogue is generally well written, the animation is lively and interesting to look at, the haracters are likeable etc. etc. It's just unfortunate that the climax of the whole film in particular doesn't live up to the rest of it.

There's a new trailer out for the movie. Must. Use. Lens. Flare. In. Every. Scene.
It makes Star Trek look dark and dingy by comparison. Also the longer the trailers get for this movie the more it's starting to look like some sort of slow paced romantic comedy as opposed to a science fiction flick. I can certainly see how there might not be anything truly groundbreaking in this film (never expected it in the first place though), but I'm still holding out on it not making me confused and lost or whatever like the people that went to Edinburgh claim. I think it'll probably also help that I know now more what to expect and that when I finally get to watch it I'll have the opportunity to review any overly dense scenes to make sure I pick up on everything. Just not sure how interested I'll be in it if it does turn out to be mostly romantic comedy glitzy visuals or not.

Spice Storage & Pot Racks: Reader Storage Solutions

After Hard-Won Lessons, Army Doctrine Revised
"The American military's difficulty in securing Iraq has led to much soul-searching within the armed forces on how to prepare for future conflicts… The Army has drafted a new operations manual that elevates the mission of stabilizing war-torn nations, making it equal in importance to defeating adversaries on the battlefield…" READ MORE >

Anthropologists at War: Are they crossing ethical lines?
"There may be some hope … in the military's approaching anthropology for guidance in the morass that is the 'war on terror.' One can see it as an encouraging sign for the future that more soldiers and policy makers want to think anthropologically, to see and understand the world from the perspective of others. If only military and government officials had come to anthropologists and other social scientists for insight about Iraqi culture, society, and history before the invasion of Iraq, perhaps we could have avoided this tragic war."

Holy See Denounces Misuse of Protection Principle
The Vatican continues to take every opportunity to discourage preemptive war: "The use of violence to resolve disagreements is always a failure of vision and a failure of humanity. The responsibility to protect should not be viewed merely in terms of military intervention but primarily as the need for the international community to come together in the face of crises to find means for fair and open negotiations, support the moral force of law and search for the common good," Also see this statement.

Online Shopping Tips
Shopping Online: Tips for the holidays
The holiday season is upon us, and that means millions of people will be shopping for gifts online. Though online shopping peaks between Thanksgiving and Christmas, you can be a safe shopper year-round. Here are some tips to remember:
-Always use a credit card. Never use a wire-transfer or a non-credit card method to buy anything online. Laws allow you to challenge any disputed item that shows up on your credit card bill, and most credit card companies have what's called a "zero liability" policy that doesn't hold you accountable for charges made if your card is lost or stolen.
-Make sure you're using a secure site when paying for something. The site you're visiting may not have an "https" in the URL, but you should see one when you go to check out. As an example, when you shop at Amazon, you only see www.amazon.com in the URL. But when you go to pay for the items in your shopping cart, you're taken to a secure version of the site. You can see that the checkout page begins with "https," a sign that you're on a secure site.
-When in doubt, do some research! If looking at a website that seems sketchy, pause for a second and do some research on the company before you buy. The Better Business Bureau offers a list of accredited businesses on its website. You can also Google the company. You may find customer reviews and experiences that could help you determine if the site is legitimate. If in doubt, don't buy.
-Finally, don't click on links directly from e-mails. Businesses love to send e-mails touting their latest sales. But so do scammers! If you get an e-mail from the Gap advertising 30% off, don't click directly from the email. Instead, type in the Gap's web address directly into your browser and then search for the deals. This helps prevent you from clicking on a link from a phishing email.
Online shopping is fun and convenient. Just make sure you're doing it safely and securely, and you should be fine.

Brass, Copper and Gold in the Kitchen
All that glitters is not gold. Sometimes; it's brass or copper. And sometimes, it does more than just glitter. Sometimes, it warms...enchants...and delights (especially when used in the kitchen).
It's here, that rich metallics seem to really shine. Like luxurious baubles amid a sea of utilitarian tile, countertops and refrigerators, warm-hued metals emit a glow that's wholly unlike their silvery counterparts. In kitchens light or dark, black or white, these luminous metallics hold their own, adding comfort and light to spaces that are, by necessity, filled with cold, hard surfaces.
What do you think of this trend? Would you use brass, copper or gold in your own kitchen? Which do you prefer?

2013 Maserati GranTurismo Values
Select a 2013 Maserati GranTurismo trim level
2013 model year changes
Maserati has updated the GranTurismo for 2013. A new trim level, the GranTurismo Sport Coupe has been added to the lineup. It promises to be the most performance oriented model amongst the various GranTurismo trim levels. The Sport Coupe also comes with a retuned and more powerful version of the 4.7L V8 that powers other GranTurismo coupes.
Competitive comparison
Strong, sweet-sounding Ferrari-derived V8; styling and details; ride comfort; tight-fitting canvas top (GranTurismo Convertible); customization potential
Special features for 2013
The GranTurismo is Maserati's high-performance grand-touring sport coupe, featuring strong Ferrari designed V8 engines and 2+2 seating. Compared to other grand-touring coupes like the Jaguar XK, BMW M6 or even the Audi R8, the GranTurismo has Italian design on its side, with an unmistakable expressiveness and flair--and an unmistakable engine sound--that simply isn't found in the more engineering-focused German grand-tourers. The GranTurismo models also have more opportunity for personalization.
The 2013 Maserati GranTurismo is luxury two-door 2+2 supercar coupe available in three different trim levels. The base S Automatic is powered by a 4.7-liter V8 engine that produces 433 hp for a 0-60 time of 4.9 seconds. Upgrading to the MC trim level boosts performance thanks to a 4.7-liter V8 engine that produces 444 hp while the Sport trim offers 454 hp. RWD and a 6-speed automatic transmission enables the GranTurismo to achieve an EPA estimated 13 mpg city and 20 mpg highway, for a combined 15 mpg. Standard features include alloy wheels, Brembo brakes, electronically adjustable suspension, adaptive bi-xenon headlamps, heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, navigation, and surround-sound. Safety is comprised of front-impact airbags, side-impact airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), and anti-lock braking (ABS). The GranTurismo is backed by a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty.

For even the most experienced performers, there's an art to working in the spotlight alone.
It takes more than solid material, more than self-assurance and engaging stage presence. All of those elements are required, of course, along with something distinctive, if not indefinable. A sense of humor doesn't hurt, either.
Alone at a piano, veteran singer-songwriter Bruce Hornsby touched all those bases in an ambitious two-hour solo performance on Friday at Plaza Live. At this point in his career, he could deliver the hits on auto-pilot, but instead took delight in the risk of re-inventing whatever song happened to cross his mind.
Like the Grateful Dead, a band that he briefly joined on the road in the 1990s, Hornsby looks at songs as fluid creations open to interpretation. It's the same philosophy that has inspired him to forsake the security of being a pop piano-man for forays into jazz, bluegrass and evocative soundtrack work.
All of those styles competed for attention in Saturday's show, which opened with a stately piano theme from Hornsby's score for Spike Lee's film "Red Hook Summer" that segued into the angular rhythms of "Sad Moon" and a rollicking "It Might As Well Be Me." The latter was a product of Hornsby's recent collaboration with Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter.
"Couldn't you have just heard the Grateful Dead doing that one?" Hornsby asked gleefully, adding that Jerry Garcia must be smiling somewhere.
At Hornsby's feet were dozens of pieces of white paper, requests that fans had left on the stage before the show. Although Hornsby eventually tackled a few of them, he wasn't in a hurry about it.
"I've seen the requests and I like them, but I like this more," he said, nodding toward his own set list on the piano. Nevertheless, the next song was "The End of the Innocence," Don Henley's monster hit that he and Hornsby co-wrote.
That was one of many songs that were prefaced by chatty monologues that were alternately endearing, self-deprecating and informative. Hornsby joked about preferring to be introduced as "10-time Grammy loser" and complimented the crowd on its appreciation of the discordant solos that reflected the influence of jazz greats Keith Jarrett and Bill Evans.
"You like your dissonance, Orlando," he said.
Although Hornsby's solos tip-toed to the point of self-indulgence a time or two, he never crossed the line. Mostly, the inventive interludes elevated signature songs such as "The Way It Is" and "Mandolin Rain," the latter slowed down to close the show with a wistful flourish.
"Why spend your life doing the same thing every day?" Hornsby asked at one point.
If change sounds like this, there's no reason at all.

XENIA, Ohio (AP) -- The southwestern Ohio city of Xenia is planning several events in April to commemorate the anniversary of a tornado that killed 35 people 40 years ago.
The April 3, 1974, tornado that hit Xenia was part of a series of 148 tornadoes over two days that killed 315 people across 13 states.
The Xenia twister destroyed 300 homes and seven schools, and caused more than $1 billion in damages.
The Dayton Daily News reports (http://bit.ly/1hQbGLp) that among the events recognizing the 40th anniversary is a memorial service on Thursday at the Greene County courthouse.
There will be a moment of silence for the victims of the tornado, and Xenia Mayor Marsha Bayless will read each of their names as a ceremonial bell rings.

New York—The largest advertisers in the U.S. increased their ad spending by 2.8% in 2012, to an estimated $104.5 billion, according to a report from Advertising Age. According to the annual "100 Leading National Advertisers" report by Ad Age, a sibling publication of BtoB, this is the lowest growth rate since the ad recovery began in 2010. Contributing factors included a shift to digital marketing, a trimming of nonmedia portions of ad budgets and holding the line on ad spending, Ad Age said. Some verticals, however, have shown stronger ad growth, according to the report. Technology companies, driven by competition in consumer electronics, experienced 2012 ad expenditure growth of 13.6%, and automotive advertising jumped 12.9%. However, the pharmaceuticals industry cut overall ad spending by 9.3% in 2012 as some significant patent protections expired. Most Popular In this article: BtoB

Accessing films or movies on Android has never been much of a problem. Support for a range of video formats, including Flash, means that streaming or playing local content is pretty simple - if you're prepared to do a little fiddling around.
Apple haa its movie offering tied up: iTunes has been doling out the goods for years, making it easy to grab yourself a movie for your iPhone or iPad, or just for playback on your PC. Whilst US Android customers have been better served than those in the UK, the arrival of film rentals for UK Android owners gives Google a foot in the door, ahead of probable rivals Amazon/Lovefilm or even Netflix UK.
- Format
- Android
- Price
- £2.49/£3.49
- Where
- Android Market
This is a slightly odd App of the Day, because films arrive on your Android device through the Android Market but they are actually handled by the Videos app, so we're dealing with both parts of the process here.
Browsing and buying films takes place through Android Market, which has been updated (for some) to include a Films tab, joining Apps, Games and Books. Dive into Films and you get the normal breakdown into categories, featured, top rentals and new releases. There are also Staff Choices within the featured section.
Then it really is as simple as finding a film you fancy and tapping the Rent button. We've been browsing the selection of movies on offer and they seem to be priced at £3.49 for a newer release, or £2.49 for older movies.
These prices match those on iTunes, unsurprisingly, but the selection of films isn't as comprehensive. Fortunately it doesn't cost you anything to browse, as there is no subscription involved, unlike streaming from a service like Lovefilm.
Once you've made your selection and paid for it, you'll get access to that film. At this point, you switch from Android Market to the Videos app. If you don't have the Videos app you'll be prompted to download it. Videos handles your rentals and provides playback.
The Videos app itself is divided into two sections, one for your rentals, the other for "personal videos". This scours your device for video content and presents it to you in one place.
You get access to your rented film for 30 days, but once you start playing, you have 48 hours to watch it.
Of course, this being Google there is another route, which is via the Android Market website. As with apps, you'll now find the Movies tab on the website so you can browse and watch on your computer or on your device.
Normal playback is streaming, but you do get the option to download it, with a warning asking you whether this should be over Wi-Fi only… we'd suggest you say yes to that. If you choose to download your film, you won't then be able to watch your film on other Android devices on your account, which streaming will allow.
Playback quality was perfect for a mobile device and if you have HDMI on your phone you'll be able to hook it up to a TV to watch it on the big screen.

Let's think about this for a minute. If I had a dime for every time I heard that from a woman, I would probably have a dollar. Like if we change to a woman that would make it better. If Barack Obama was a woman would his policies be any different? Remember Obama was a liberal commie before the election and he is the same today. He has no backbone to stand up to Russia just like Truman decades ago. And the liberals love and adore communism. They overlook the scores of folks massacred for the sake of imagined freedom via communism.
Obama could use the race card in the election. Even today if you attack Obama personally you are a racist. For a woman candidate it will be different. A black woman would not even be able to use the race card. After 8 years of Obama who in their right mind would ever vote for a liberal black person?
So let's see what we have in the political world. We have women all over the place in every political office. In every administrative position. They are present in the Secret Service. They are every where except maybe on the football field for the NFL. Is politics any better today. Is it any different? A crook is a crook even in a skirt!
So let's look at all the winners. Let's start with Hillary. She has accomplished just about nothing in many years of public life. Just like Obama is there any legislation with her name on it. Just like Obama and Clinton (Billy Bob) the terrorists and the dictators seems to manifest strength under these precious leaders. And they truly believe that if we become friends with our enemies, the enemies will become good, moral people. And these people who continue to think this are stupid and insane!
Look at Pelosi she has been a politician for ages. Do you really trust her. She signs a healthcare bill that she probably hasn't read yet. But how much money was placed in her coffers to allow this bill to pass?
Look at Feinstein.. These crazy people want to take your guns away, but their body guards and police are allowed to keep theirs. And they lie about automatic weapons!
Remember that goof in Illinois. Her name was Carol Moseley Braun. She became their senator. People actually voted for her! Because when you heard her speak she was a joke. Only lasted one term. Billy Bob then made her an ambassador. God Bless New Zealand!
The IRS Lerner woman just keeps taking the fifth. Is that a fifth of gin? Sebelius didn't know the Obama website would implode! We keep trying out women in these positions and they seem to be nothing but a joke. But is that because they are Democrat women?
Remember the wacky woman Democrat governor of Louisiana who wouldn't let anyone help New Orleans after Katrina hit!
So these are all women. In all fairness we could write about Schumer. Weiner, Edwards, Billy Bob Clinton, and Harry Reid. These are all losers. But they were elected by the masses. Most of their voters were women!
Sarah Palin is a wonderful gal, but the media was allowed to destroy her. Why didn't anyone try to destroy Johnny Edwards? Where were the liberal women to protect her?
Michelle Bachman. A truly lovely person but she has a difficult time communicating.
I am sure that there are a dozen women out there that would make great presidents. But they will never see the light of day.
As I have written before we need a promoter like Obama. Obama was a clueless, baseless racist but he knew how to promote empty useless ideas!
Just today I received an email from Lindsay Siler. She wants me to send $5.00 to help support the communist Democrat party. She is a woman. Used to work for Planned Parenthood. Tell me again how a woman who supports the rights of women who want to assist in killing, executing about 500,000 future women a year. If they only aborted male babies/fetuses then why not. But female zygotes … Stop the world I want to get off.
So let's get back to Hillary. Would she be the leader that could promote an agenda that would fix all Obama's follies? She stood by while Billy Bob sexually harassed a lot of women. She also assisted in helping to quiet any dissenters of her husband's transgressions. But would women really vote for such a person? I would hope not! There might be a few men. It won't be long before polygamy will be accepted in this country. Why not have Hillary lead the way. Do you wonder how many women had indirect contact with Hillary through the actions of Billy Bob. It brings to mind the SNL skit where the guy is seeing all the partners he has been with. I wonder what Hillary envisions. Was Hillary marked absent for Benghazi?
Hillary is not a good leader. She is not a good communicator. And she is not a good promoter. There are no females in the United States that can fill that role. Or is it that there are no smart females/mothers who would want to jump through all the hoops to get there. Look what they did to Palin! Would you want to go through that. They sent thousands to find dirt on Palin, would you and your family want to go through that?
And once in a while you see great communicators. People who can get the message out. You see this most in some preachers. But they have captive audiences to some extent. I caught Tammy Bruce at a University once. It happened to be aired on TV. She is a liberal feminist turned less liberal. And she put herself in the den of liberalism in front of a bunch of liberal students. I was impressed with the way she was able to keep the crowd in the room and allow them to listen. Most people have been turned off by Obama, so they have stopped listening.
So I don't care who wins the election. I am an equal opportunity elector. But to win, a non-liberal needs to stick to the economy. Be a promoter. Be positive. Most people know Obama and his policies have hurt the country. More people are unemployed or underemployed then ever in American history. And Obama can't blame President Bush. He can only blame B H Obama.
But America does not need to make the same mistakes. More people now understand why socialism is a failure. How crooked politicians get rich while the middle class and other classes become poorer. How the poor are trapped in the slavery of the never ending chains of entitlements of the social meddlers.
Bottom line is would you rather have a decent job or a handout? There was a time in America when the answer would be overwhelming. Today we all wonder… How many would rather have FREE handouts than a job?

Awash in Coal, U.S. Imports Even More
Power Plants Reap Benefits From Cheap Colombian Shipments as Mines in Appalachia Begin to Close
Coal imports to the U.S. are rising sharply even as coal mines close throughout Central Appalachia.
A big reason: price. It costs $26 a ton to ship coal from Central Appalachia to power plants in Florida compared with $15 a ton to get coal from a mine in Colombia, according to research firm IHS Energy.
Labor costs are lower in Colombia, and...

Ray Tamarra/Wireimage
Who: Emma Watson
Where: Heading into the Late Show With David Letterman in N.Y.C.
What She's Wearing: A Saint Laurent suit with Christian Louboutin heels and jewelry by Anita Ko, Eva Fehren and Sabine G.
Why She Nailed It: Menswear is notoriously tricky to pull off. It needs just the right tailoring, accessories and attitude to keep it from tipping too far into costume territory or going the opposite way and being a little frumpy.
There's a high degree of difficulty in making a crisp black suit with a fully-buttoned shirt look alluring, but Watson pulls it off and makes it look easy. It's the combination of the perfect fit, the gorgeously precise vibrant lip, the just-undone-enough bun and the perfectly matched shoes that elevate it past other red carpet menswear looks. Sharp, chic and oh-so-sexy, this is in our pantheon of all-time favorite Watson outfits.
Tell us: What do you think of Watson's outfit?

Bulls put win streak against Pistons on the line
The Chicago Bulls can still improve their positioning in the Eastern Conference playoff race and look to resume a dominant winning streak against the Detroit Pistons Sunday night at The Palace.
The Bulls are fifth in the East, 1 1/2 games behind Brooklyn and 1 1/2 games ahead of Atlanta, and have ripped off 18 straight wins over the Pistons. Chicago is 23-2 in the past 25 meetings with the Central rival Pistons, who have lost eight straight to the Bulls at home.
Chicago is coming off Friday's 87-86 victory over the Orlando Magic as Nate Robinson scored 12 of his 19 points in the fourth quarter to lead the way. Luol Deng also had 19 points for Chicago, which trailed by five with 10 minutes to play before using 18-4 run to take an 87-78 lead with 3:51 left.
"We played as hard as we could for as long as we could and we pulled out the victory," said Robinson.
The Bulls have won six of eight games and will try to improve their 20-17 road record. Carlos Boozer came up short on a double-double with 12 points and nine rebounds, and owns seven double-doubles in the last nine games.
Chicago is 31-14 against the East this season and hopes to have center Joakim Noah and guard Marco Belinelli against the Pistons. Noah (foot) has missed eight straight games and Belinelli (abdomen) has missed seven in a row.
Detroit is back home for a short stay and went 1-3 on a recent road trip, which culminated with Saturday's 107-101 loss at Minnesota.
Brandon Knight scored 25 points and Rodney Stuckey netted 20 for the Pistons, who have lost 15 of the last 17 contests.
Pistons coach Lawrence Frank witnessed Wolves coach Rick Adelman notch the 1,000th victory of his career.
"It's phenomenal. It's unbelievable. I will say it for the millionth time, he was one of the most underrated coaches in this game," Frank said. "He is a phenomenal teacher. For him to do it at every single stop with the consistency he has done, he is a tremendous coach."
Detroit will try to stop an eight-game slide at home and is 15-23 at The Palace of Auburn Hills this season.
Pistons guard Will Bynum has missed six straight games with a hand injury and is questionable versus the Bulls. The Pistons haven't beaten the Bulls since Dec. 23, 2008, a 104-98 victory at home..


text: "Typical C. uva uva probably comes from the hills behind Willemstad. This lot (Table XI) happens to give a mean size and the mean number of whorls near those of all of the lots taken together. Although the change in form, due to the number of whorls and the resultant difference in altitude, is very conspicuous (Plate XVIII), it is too variable to be of any racial importance; in fact, aperture formation appears to be hastened by injury. The actual size of the shells seems more important, and the extreme lots deserve recognition as ecological forms. The most dwarfed shells may be called form diablensis, new (fig. xviii-A2), with the top of Ronde Klip (C12b) as the type locality. The largest shells also have the heaviest sculpture, and may be included in the form hatoensis, new (fig. xviii-F6), with the eastern escarpment of Seroe Spelonk, near Landhuis Rato (C11d) as the type locality." (H. B. Baker, 1924:100).

THL Toolbox > Tibetan Texts > Sigla
Sigla-ID Assignment for Tibetan Texts
Contributor(s): THL Staff.
Every text, and every collection of texts, needs a unique ID. We need to resolve immediately whether we want to use a one to a billion ID system where everything just gets a numerical ID, or some type of distinctive letter-numerical ID that uses sigla for each collection and/or text. That would indicate we need a ID generator that keeps track of IDs for texts, images, etc. all separately.
While letter-numerical IDs are characteristic of the print world, the real ID should be a THL id that is one to a billion. At the most there might be a "T" prefix to indicate the ID is a Text, while AV would indicate audio-video. We could also use traditional sigla as a kind of mneumonic for people, even though the "real" ID is a random numerical ID.
We have created a sigla manager system. For staff and permitted participants, see the administrators-only page to get information on its access. It allows you to view and add siglas. Plus it also provides an XML feed for the Authority List of Siglas. So every time a new sigla is added or changed, the list will display the changes. What remains to be done is add code for deleting sigla entries.
Sigla rules:
- For Collected works, use 2 letter author initials +CW. If 2 letters already taken, add number 1, onwards.
- Kangyur-Tengyur - use field's established sigla in IATs volume, but also use KG- and TG- to preface it. Master sigla is then KG and TG.
- Use NG to preface Nyingma Gyubum editions. So NG-TK, NG-TB, etc. Master sigla is NG.
- Use CW for collected works, and DKCW for Dilgo Khyentse Collected Works

Talk:Characters by Surname
| This talk page is for discussing the Characters by Surname article.
This includes commenting on the article, questioning whether it is correct, or adding suggestions for improvements
Questions about GTA games, not about the wiki page itself, should be asked at Community:Questions.Remember to always add your signature to the end of your comments/replies using four tildes:
To anyone who has completed GTA IV, is there anybody who appears in the game that is not listed here? This also applies to any other GTA game, but primarily to GTA IV. Also, is the opening section a good explanation on how to use the Find function, or should this be re-worded/re-written? A-Dust 21:27, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
Split Article
Should this article be split so as to be more accessible to users with slower connections? A-Dust 01:38, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
- Hmmm, it is rather large. Perhaps it could be split into pre-GTA III and post-GTA III? It's annoying because the level of detail is useful. There's no point splitting it down any further than that, because of inter-game and even inter-era overlaps (eg Lazlow). Perhaps at the very top you could link to a separate page, which would be a names-only list, or even just link to Category:Characters (and explain why that is a better option for some people). That gives people the option, rather than totally ruining the point of this very good page. Gboyers talk 03:11, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
- I think the link at the top is a very good idea. The main problem though is that the article is going to become much larger, because I'm going to doing the article over (so it looks like the characters 8-B do currently) and will of course be adding the characters from The Lost and Damned and GTA Chinatown Wars, as well as multiplayer characters from GTA Liberty City Stories who are not on the list. What would you say to splitting the article into sections (characters 8-D, E-J etc,)? A-Dust 03:16, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
- Also, there is already the GTA III era Characters article, listing the GTA III era characters. So should there be one for GTA IV era characters? A-Dust 23:26, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
- A-Dust asked me for my opinion. This page is 236Kb, some browsers have trouble editing a page of 32Kb. This is a definite sign that we should think about splitting it up.
- I like the idea of A-Dust's to split it up alphabetically. We could treat it like the gripes. Make this page like a contents (link to all the others), and have a header page transcluded onto every other page, which will include the intro. I don't like the idea of splitting this page into eras, cos then it will be by era, not surname. I do however agree with the idea of the (seperate) GTA IV Era Characters page (though, maybe move GTA III era Characters to Characters in GTA III Era and make Characters in GTA IV Era) Thoughts? Biggest GTA Fan EverTalk 02:47, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
- I think splitting the article is the only option, as it is getting longer and longer as I change the article and add more information to the information section and add voice artists. Plus there are characters from GTA Chinatown Wars and The Lost and Damned that have not been announced and know there are characters in GTA IV that I know nothing about. I also agree there should be a GTA IV Era characters article and that the III Era page should be moved (for consistency). Does anyone else have thoughts on this? A-Dust 20:01, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
I made the move to the GTA III era Characters because that's the kind of thing that I do constantly, without discussion. If I found that myself without it being mentioned above, it would have been moved by now. As for this page, it needs to be split up. Splitting it up alphabetically (8-E, D-J etc) will keep it sorted by surname (the point of the article) and not era/game. Does everyone else agree with that? Biggest GTA Fan EverTalk 05:59, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
- I've now moved part of the article to three different pages: Characters by Surname (8-B), Characters by Surname (C-E) and Characters by Surname (F-I). I've not moved any other content as it has yet to be changed to the new format, so no accurate judge on length can be made. What do you think of the pages? A-Dust 00:22, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
- That's perfect. I noticed how they load instantly like any other page, whereas the long one has that delay, and when it does load it won't scroll properly and things like that. So I like it. Does everyone else? Biggest GTA Fan EverTalk 00:46, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
- Just to say that the splitting of the article has now finished. What does everyone think? A-Dust 15:09, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
Looks great. I would however suggest like a template at the top and/or bottom of each page, linking to the previous and next page and also a link back to the main article. Thoughts? Biggest GTA Fan EverTalk 23:54, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
- That is a good idea and I've now done that, using a new template. Any other opinions? A-Dust 19:46, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
The following images are needed for this article. Any help in obtaining these images is greatly appreciated. If users do add an image of characters listed here, please remove them from this list.
GTA Vice City: Fernando Martinez, Pepe and Amy Sheckenhausen.
GTA San Andreas: Freddy and Mr. Whittaker,

GTA Chinatown Wars: Wade Heston and Wu Lee.
Virtually all characters from GTA 1, London (both 1969 and 1961) and GTA 2 need images as well, although no 3D images will be available. Thank you for your help. A-Dust 02:54, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
Repeated Category
I have one question that can be presented in two forms:
- Why does each of these articles include the characters category, when the category is automatically included by the header?
- Why does the header include the category?
I just edited the header to use
<includeonly></includeonly>, because it's a template, and doesn't need to be in a content category. But why does the category need to be included in two ways? Which one should we stick to? (they both produce the exact same result) JFletcherTalk (formerly User:Biggest gta fan ever) 04:13, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

Latin GRAMMYs Slated For Las Vegas
Latin music's most prestigious awards telecast, the 12th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards, returns once again to Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Events Center on Thursday, Nov. 10, and will air live on the Univision Network from 8–11 p.m. ET/PT (7 p.m. Central). Nominations for the 12th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards will be announced on Sept. 14 at a live press conference in Los Angeles (venue to be announced shortly).
"What better place to host the Latin GRAMMYs than Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Events Center and once again offer music lovers unique and memorable performances," said Gabriel Abaroa Jr., President/CEO of The Latin Recording Academy. "We are delighted to return to the entertainment capital of the world and showcase the best and brightest in Latin music, as well as highlight new and established programs and initiatives throughout Latin GRAMMY Week. We look forward to another successful Latin GRAMMY season."
Since the annual Latin GRAMMY telecast debuted on Univision entirely in Spanish in 2005, the show has consistently earned increased ratings year after year worldwide. Additionally, the Latin GRAMMYs has become one of Univision's highest rated shows, as well as one of the most watched and highly regarded awards events by Hispanics.
For updates and breaking news, please visit The Latin Recording Academy's social networks on Twitter and Facebook.
