Started Working On The Bush Hog Hd-12

I know what you mean about it being scary. On my wedges I have 4 that I made at work, I made them out of oak and there about 8" long, I can't even count how many times they came in handy. Some times in a case like this, if I know I have clearance behind it, then I will drill and tap two 3/8-16 holes so I can mount a puller. Biggest thing in pulling anything is to make sure you have even pressure on 2 sides. Just take your time George, I know you will get this off.
Yep, without pulling holes, it's scary getting them off. If it were mine, I'd wedge a cold chisel under the flywheel, one to each side, where there is engine block as a backer. I usually can find chisels that will just lightly drive in, putting a forward pre-load on the flywheel. Then I use a hammer against a brass drift on the crank end. Hardwood wedges may work, but you only have a few thousands of crank end-play to wok with. The taken up end-play is what pops them loose when the shock/push hits it. If you use wood, the wood usually compresses, taking away the "push", leaving you with just the shock factor. 2 advantages are better than just one. I sure hate hitting on the end of a crank, but have had to do it many a time. Only problem I ever had was with an old Kohler with a threaded end, and I was using a puller. When I tapped the tightened puller, the threaded end of the crank broke right off! No worries with that on this one with that large crankshaft extension.

Good luck with it George.
Posted April 29, 2012 - 06:15 PM
We did manage to get the flywheel off. Used to long punches and wedged them behind the flywheel to put outward pressure on it as suggested. I tried using a block of wood to cushion the blow a little but it didn't work. I finally gave in and whacked it good two times directly with the hammer on the end of the crank and it came loose.
However I have other issues with the engine. I somehow broke a little piece on the governor gear counterweights and will have to see about getting a new governor gear/counterweight. Also the piston is chewed up pretty good at the top above the rings which I am guessing is from all of the carbon that was built up. The cylinder bore looks good though although I can't check out of round. I need to decide if I am going to spend the money and do it right and get the bore machined and get a new piston. Which would also mean the rings that I got wouldn't do any good.
Or I can save the money and use it towards putting a diesel in it
Here are some pictures:

I think the HD-12 will actually be easier for her to drive then the Massey 12H because the lever is easier to move.
Posted July 19, 2012 - 08:46 PM
gotta go get a hone and a ring compressor
The hone is a nice thing to have, but this is the only ring compressor set I've ever used.
Good luck getting your HD going again, gonna be close... but if you put on your big red cape and spandex suit with the big "S" on it, I'm sure you can get it done...
- NUTNDUN and olcowhand have said thanks

Why are people so polar and imbalanced? Of course a hug does not solve this. I don't know why you would construe something such as this, nor do I understand why such an incomplete and unhealthy response was warranted on your part.
There are all sorts of ways to attempt healing in this manner. Just because it is difficult, just because it requires the strong to be strong and aid the weak, does not mean that we should act so childishly.
Use your brain. Use your heart. Use your understanding. Use your soul.
Give to your neighbor as you would give to yourself if you were in the same situation.
If you believe that vengeance is appropriate healing, then your imperfections will be answered with retribution also by Perfection.

A Marine Corps captain who died in Iraq will have a second street named after him.
Clifton Park officials recently voted to call a small street near the park and drive and Northway Exit 8 ramps "John J. McKenna IV Way."
McKenna, 30, died from a gunshot wound Aug. 16, 2006, in Fallujah during his second tour of duty in Iraq. He had moved to Clifton Park from Brooklyn and worked as a State Trooper. A block near his childhood home on East Second Street in New York City was already named after the Marine.
Clifton Park recently ordered the McKenna sign for its U-shaped road, and will dedicate it to the Marine at a ceremony with his mother and father, John and Karen McKenna III, who reside in Clifton Park.
"I feel honored," Karen McKenna said by phone Monday. "I'm sure in 50 years, someone will say who was John McKenna. Our mission is that people will know who John McKenna was."
A sniper in Iraq shot McKenna as he tried to save the life of Lance Cpl. Michael Glover, a University at Albany graduate from Queens. The platoon leader assigned to Fox Company, 1st Battalion, 25th Marine Regiment, then out of Albany, received a posthumous Silver Star for his bravery,
The sniper accused of shooting McKenna and Glover was captured Sept. 29, 2006, in Fallujah. Iraqi authorities released him after the Marines withdrew from Iraq, John McKenna III said in an interview.
"It was a terrible waste from Day One," John McKenna III said of the war. "What did we accomplish there? Our guys did the best they could."
The McKenna family created the Capt. John McKenna IV Military Courtesy Room at the Albany International Airport in Colonie. Nearly 8,500 service personnel and their families have used its services since it opened in March 2010.

LeToya Luckett Shares Her Summer Hair Secrets!
Hey Glamazons! I hope that all of you had an amazing Fourth Of July weekend. Once again, I travelled down to New Orleans for the 2011 ESSENCE Music Festival but this time I really worked instead of hanging out as a guest of FORD like last year. However, it was really cool because I got to meet tons of new celebs and shoot really great videos (more on that later!) I teamed up with beauty brand Carol's Daughter to be their official social media correspondent for the weekend at their pop-up store (located at 309 Chartres St.). While there, one my fave singers LeToya Luckett stopped by (Side note: that's her pictured above holding Mary J. Blige's newest fragrance, My Life Blossom, which she purchased right after my interview because she wanted to support Mary. Love that!) and I just had to get the scoop on her hair (plus anything else that she wanted to share with me, of course hahaha). She's super cute and really nice! Here's what she had to say:
A: What are some of your hair secrets that you'd like to share?
LeToya: I try to shampoo and condition it at least once a week. I do deep conditioners as well and sit underneath the hair dryer and everything. I don't use a lot of heat on my hair. Pincurling is my secret! I wear my hair wavy alot and so I don't have to use all that excess heat everyday trying to curl it, I just pincurl it. So, when I take it out, it just does this (points to her wavy hair). Um, wrapping if I do something straight. Also, I try to keep my scalp moisturized so every once in a while, I use something to massage into my scalp but not like a greasy grease. I'm also into hair masques.
A: Ooo! I love hair masques!
LeToya: Looove hair masques! You know what, I sell Carol's Daughter at my store in Texas!
A: You do! Have you used the Monoi Masque?
LeToya: No!
A: I feel like you need some Monoi because that hair masque will change your life.
LeToya: My clients in my store seriously love Carol's Daughter. They come in more for the hair products than the body products. They say that it moisturizes very well but it's not oily.
A: So, what's your favorite Carol's Daughter product?
LeToya: My favorite is the bath salts and I love the lotions, too. The Shea Souffle is so creamy. Almond Cookie is my fave. I like it because it smells clean and it's not greasy. It has like a warm smell to it. I also like the Ocean Shea Souffle.
A: Most people that live on the West Coast really like that one (the Ocean Shea Souffle).
LeToya: Really? I live on the West Coast!
A: So, what else is new with you? What else do you have going on?
LeToya: The movie From The Rough starring Taraji Henson. (Side note: This film hits a theater near you in October 2011.) I'm also working on my third album and I've also shot some stuff for HBO's Treme.
A: When does your album come out?
LeToya: Hopefully sometime next year. But I'm in the studio working on it right now.
A: What's been inspiring you so far as you create that new album?
LeToya: Just life. (laughing) But it's going to be R&B.
A: Awesome! Can't wait to hear it!
LeToya: I can't wait to hear it, either!
And there you have it, Glamazons! Who else out there is a big LeToya Luckett fan? And, most importantly, what are some of your summer hair beauty secrets that you'd like to share? (LeToya can't be the only gal on the planet that believes in the power of the pincurl!)

It was learnt that the property of others linked with the $2.1billion scandal were also confiscated by the anti-graft agency in Kaduna.
Among them is a former Theatre Commander of the Operation Lafia Dole in Maiduguri, Major General Yishau Mahmood Abubakar.
It was learnt that occupants of some of the buildings were expelled by EFCC operatives who took over the property, which they marked with red ink

Dasuki's confiscated property are said to be a hotel complex on Rabah Road, Malali GRA in the heart of Kaduna metropolis and a mansion under construction on Sani Sami Road, also in Malali GRA.
Except for some workers moving out their tools, the site was empty yesterday.
Maj.-Gen. Abubakar's residential duplex located at No. 5C, Sultan Close was sealed off Sunday evening.
When our the Nation correspondent visited the property yesterday, it was marked in red paint, "Keep off, under EFCC investigation" in red paint.
It was also gathered that when the EFCC operatives arrived at the house, there was a birthday party going on. Everybody was asked to vacate the premises immediately and they obeyed.
A shopping mall allegedly belonging to Gen. Abubakar's wife was also confiscated by the anti-graft agency. The inscription "Keep off, under EFCC investigation" was put on it.
Sources said the property belongs to the General's brother and not his wife – as alleged.
Another shopping mall on Sultan Road, which is believed to belong to Gen. Abubakar's friend who is an Ambassador was also confiscated.

This is post #4 in my series on how writers can use the 4 elements to help them develop characters and plots. Previous posts can be found here, here and here .
Your story plot calls for a character that is intellectual, unconventional, constantly in their head, a little bit like a distracted scientist. You have tried different tactics to get under his skin, but somehow your "perfect" character is not living and breathing in the pages of your story. So what do you do?
Most writing coaches would advise you to resort to unusual tactics. Using astrology to profile your intellectual character would certainly fit the bill.
The orator, the brainy kid, the communicator, the rational guy that think things through in your story, all of them pertain to the Air element.
Let's examine this element and how it can help you flesh out a credible character for your story.
The Air Element: Concept and Keywords
Some keywords that describes this element and consequently the Air signs (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius) are:
- analytical, curious, thinking, intellectual, social, detached
- communicative, logical, objective, rational;
- co-operative, inventive, alert, sociable, balanced judgment;
- superficial, intuitive, hyperactive, aloof, scattered;
- calm, charming, chatty, cold, eccentric, friendly;
- harsh, haughty, highly-strung;
- imaginative, impractical, inventive, idealistic;
- lacking direction, lively, logical, mentally active, planning;
- resourceful, sarcastic, self-opinionated, talented, unfeeling;
- curious, unemotional, animated, uninvolved, devoid of feeling;
- very sensitive, needs to communicate, impersonal, distant;
- theoretical, abstract, needs to socialize, needs to share ideas.
This list of keywords can serve as a starting point when you need to know what motivates your airy character. It also provide enough information to get a good feel on how to develop your character (personality, mannerisms, interests and attitudes) using this element.
The Air Element Characters' Positive Traits and Attributes
An Air character would exhibit the following personality traits:
- A character who is a smart thinker and handles abstract reasoning well, always analyzing, synthesizing and probing.
- The character in the story plot who can solve a dilemma.
- Someone who is inventive and clever, capable of seeing all sides of the equation and glean the best approach to the problem.
- A communicator who likes to ponder out loud about weighty matters.
- A character that is alert, curious and perceptive.
- A character that can truly wear another's shoes, as it were.
- A character that is guided by the desire of making the world a better place. Their idealism is their most charming quality
- This character is truly cooperative, fair minded and with no prejudice.
- Someone who rarely make foolish mistakes.
- People-oriented, but more inclined toward the group than the individual.
- A life-long student with many varied interests.
The Air Element Characters' Negative Traits and Attributes
Let's now have a quick look at the downside qualities of our Air character that could be used to give more depth to our hero:
- He can live in his head and lose touch with reality with unrealistic goals and flights of fancy
- He can be an impractical dreamer, constantly thinking, but not always following through as well as others.
- He appears impersonal, detached.
- He is very social with many friends and acquaintance from all walks of life, but the associations are not deep, or lasting.
As a writer, the more you understand each of the 4 elements the better your characters will drive your story, the better you will know them intimately – their likes/dislikes; physical description, past, present, dreams of the future, what motivates them etc.
I would love to hear from you. What did you discover by using the Air element method to create the characters in your story?

History Feature?I have a very bad memory, so I was thinking a history feature would be helpful. Occasionally, I forget how I got to a story that I want to read again, or maybe share with someone. It would be nice to have a history of stories I read along with title,time, group, and author.
Alternatively maybe I could right click on a story title and be able to save it for later reading. Often times I want to followup further on a story, but don't because I'll lose my train of thought. (reading the next story in the list - I read them one after the other and in some groups there are many stories and if I lose my "place" I'll end up having to see old and new stories intermixed.

Title: Spark
By: Becky
Pairings: Unrequited Justin/Richard. Maybe . . .
Disclaimer: Not mine. Don't sue.
"You really need to get laid, Bonaparte."
Justin doesn't know why Lisa calls him that, and he doesn't think he wants to. Outwardly, he ignores her. If he were a different kind of guy, a guy like Richard, he would ask her if it was an offer. But he isn't like Richard, he would never be - and so he pretends to ignore her.
He catches Richard's eye after Lisa turns back to the front of class. Sees a spark in them, a devious spark he's become all too familiar with. Justin shifts uncomfortably in his desk, hoping it isn't noticeable. He doesn't need that kind of humiliation today.
Lisa is right, he thinks. He does need to get laid. He needs to feel the paradoxically calloused and smooth hands on his flesh. He needs to feel the short flaxen strands yielding beneath his fingertips. He needs to breathe in the scent of expensive cologne and brand new leather and everything else that makes up the very essence of Richard Haywood. Yes, Justin needs to get laid.
When the bell rings a few minutes later he's careful as he stands up, adjusting his shirt in hopes to conceal the evidence of his thoughts. But he can't miss the laughing eyes and knowing smirk as Richard walks past him.

To me, the Clinton Hill pizzeria Emily is famous because my neighbor and her husband own it. My boyfriend and I started going there because they offered everyone in our building a free dessert, and there aren't many places I wouldn't go for a free s'mores calzone. We kept going to Emily because it turned out the pizza was really the epitome of what great NY wood-fired pizza can be, with an airy, crisp crust that wasn't hard and overly chewy. And then all of NYC went there, too, not only for the funky pizza concoctions (like the Colony with pickled chilis and honey) but for the award-winning burger that the Internet couldn't stop talking about. Now there's Emmy Squared in Williamsburg, an offshoot offering Detroit-style pizza because it wasn't enough for Matt Hyland to just be a master of NY pies.
These things must be triple-battered, for all of the crunchy stuff that falls off of them onto the plate as you pull them apart. Growing up in Ohio, we asked for "extra crispy stuff" or "more crunchies" at Long John Silver's to get a little pile of fried batter on the side of our hush puppies. These are the adult version of that. Dip those little nuggets of cheese into your spicy "sammy" sauce or tomato sauce, and don't forget the crispies.
When I was a kid in Ohio (and truthfully, up until about five years ago), Pizza Hut was my favorite pizza. The popular pizzas in Ohio–Donatos, Massey's, every mom and pop shop in my little town–had the Midwestern cracker crust, but if my pizza wasn't piled on an inch of bread, I wasn't interested. Emmy Squared takes the idea of that pan pizza and makes it so your stomach won't explode. It has that same crust that rises up along the side of the baking pan, but here, the cheese spills over the side and fries up crispy to give the crust a crunch and a buttery-ness that you can't get with wood-fired pizza. And the dough at Emmy Squared isn't a brick that expands in your stomach; it's a light, airy thing just weighty enough to support the loads of toppings.
I ordered the Roni Supreme to harken back to those days when we used to use the crispy curled-edge pepperoni of Ohio pizzas as bowls for other toppings. It wasn't for the faint of heart, with clumps of chile seeds to make your eyes water. My boyfriend's mom got the Angel Pie, because mushrooms are a hot commodity back in her native Poland, where every member of the household is a fungus-picking expert in the forest. We all loved the texture of the ricotta and the sauce replacement of truffle cream. But our favorite was The Emmy, which we added sausage to like hedonists. But of course it was going to be our favorite, because it had all of the best things in life: banana peppers, red onions, and RANCH. Homemade ranch, with extra herbs in it to make it green. I didn't even know there was a way to make regular ranch better. I couldn't stop exclaiming about how this was my new favorite pizza. And it wasn't just the Moscow Mules talking.
Remember GreenBox from an episode of "Shark Tank"? Emmy Squared uses them! How environmentally responsible and convenient!

text: We will of course be back to inform you when it starts and when big talks are set to happen but we thought we would get ahead of things this year and make sure people are aware of 29C3 a few days ahead of time. To that end starting on the 27th of December at 11am Berlin/Hamburg time 29C3 will open and run for four days. For those not aware the C3 congress is a long running annual hacker convention based in Europe and put on by the Chaos Computer Club that sits up there with the likes of Defcon in terms of the speakers it attracts and information that gets released there. In years past the wii and the PS3 had their security systems dissected and dissed. Sadly despite events recently there does not seem to be a Wii U, DSi or 3ds event scheduled (workshops, guest presentations in other related presentations and lightning talks are a potentially different matter but there is not much information available for those at present), however various people involved with such hacks in years past do have talks on various related matters. To go further seen as one of the more common questions we get asked around here is "how do I learn to hack?" we like to note watching presentations such as these are great places to pick up more information on the ideas that underpin various hacks for "hacking [insert device]" is not really a discipline and most that do it start out with a deep understanding or electronics, computer science and other aspects of engineering and go from there. Being a European conference from what started out as a largely German hacker group several presentations are not in English though the language of choice is noted in the schedule/Fahrplan and presentation overviews themselves, likewise times on the schedule/Fahrplan are Berlin/Hamburg times (one hour ahead of UK times). Most presentations are streamed live by various methods, are available for straight download in fairly short order and ultimately make their way onto youtube and other such places. Official schedule/Fahrplan (though it is called a schedule this year for most previous events the German word Fahrplan was used by all so that is what many will call it) PDF and other versions of the schedule/Fahrplan Streaming arrangements do seem to not quite be finalised right now but Congress everywhere will eventually get relevant links (right now, among other things, it has a list of hackerspaces, universities and rooms that have been co-opted across mainland Europe that are participating with various types of streaming) and we will certainly be back with the necessary links as and when. So then GBAtemp, what presentations are you looking forward to this year?

Events will be held in Sylva and on the Western Carolina University campus to raise awareness of conflict mediation as an alternative to litigation and to settle personal disputes on Tuesday, Oct. 23, and Wednesday, Oct. 24.
A panel of lawyers and certified mediators from Mountain Mediation Services on Oct. 23 will discuss the advantages of mediation as an alternative to the often costly and time-consuming process of bringing a civil case to court. The event will be held at the Jackson County Justice Center from 12:30 to 2 p.m.
Then on Oct. 24, members of WCU's Campus Mediation Society will stage a mediation followed by a question-and-answer session at WCU in Multipurpose Room B in A.K. Hinds University Center from 5 to 6:45 p.m. The presentation will feature student mediators who recently qualified for the 2012 National Mediation competition sponsored by the American Bar Association.
Both events are free and open to the public. They are supported by WCU's College of Business and Campus Mediation Society, Mountain Mediation Services and the North Carolina Agricultural Mediation Program, and by a grant from the American Bar Association.
The Campus Mediation Society is a student organization advised and mentored by Jayne Zanglein, an associate professor of business law, in conjunction with WCU's Department of Student Community Ethics. Whether the dispute is a civil case referred by a judge or a relationship disagreement between neighbors or college roommates, the mediation process and role of the mediator is the same – to be a nonjudgmental third party who facilitates a voluntary agreement between two disputing parties.
For more information, call Zanglein at 828-227-7191 or send an email to email@example.com.

When a teenager (voiced by Amanda Seyfried) comes to live with her oddball father after the death of her mother, she finds herself trapped in a different world, one of miniature creatures of the forest. After the forest is threatened by evil, she, her father and her new band of rag-tag friends work together to save their world. Also with voices of Blake Anderson, Aziz Ansari, Colin Farrell, Josh Hutcherson, Jason Sudeikis, Steven Tyler, Christoph Waltz and Beyonce Knowles. Directed by Chris Wedge. [1:42]
SEX/NUDITY 1 - A miniature teenage girl instructs a miniature teenage boy to put his arms around her, which he does, and they kiss; as they kiss the girl is pulled away by a glittery wind that interrupts them.
► A miniature teenage girl and a miniature teenage boy lean in, about to kiss, but the boy shakes the girl's hand instead. A miniature teenage boy instructs a miniature teenage girl to put her arms around him, reaching out his hand to her; the girl jokes, saying she barely knows him and the boy lifts her up with their faces close (they do not kiss). A miniature teenage boy instructs a miniature teenage girl to put her arms around him as he pilots a sparrow they are riding; the girl balks, saying she does not know him. A miniature woman and a miniature man stand with their faces very close; the woman appears almost ready to kiss the man until they are interrupted.
► Throughout the movie, a slug flirts with a miniature teen girl. A miniature man teases a miniature teenage boy, saying that he can dress up and the boy can be his "lady friend."
VIOLENCE/GORE 4 - A miniature man fires an arrow into a piece of tree bark and a frog/insect like creature with the arrow in its torso (there's no blood) lurches from the bark and falls to the ground followed by the bark of the tree, which changes into frog/insect like creatures, that engage in battle with a group of miniature men; the frog/insect like creatures fire arrows at the miniature men and when the arrows hit the ground rot spreads killing all plant life; the frog/insect like creatures attack a group of dragonflies carrying a miniature woman in a leaf boat, the leaf boat falls to the ground and the woman runs to escape chased by a frog/insect like creature; the woman grabs a miniature girl, who helps her pull down a tree root on top of a group of frog/insect like creatures and an arrow hits the woman in the torso (there's no blood) and she continues to run until a life-sized teen girl finds the dying woman, who speaks her final words and turns into glitter and moss; a miniature man throws a frog/insect like creature off the back of a raven and we learn that the frog/insect like creature was the son of the leader of the frog/insect like creatures and that he died; we later see the teen girl experience a flashback where she sees the miniature woman dying a second time and a caterpillar also experiences the flashback, remarking that the teen girl's flashback is very vivid.
► A miniature man meets up with a miniature teenage girl and a miniature teenage boy and they discuss their chances of escaping from a rotten tree, surrounded by frog/insect like creatures who want to kill a flower bud that they need to protect; the man tells the teens to escape while he creates a diversion and the man leaps into the middle of a tree stump drawing attention to himself; many frog/insect like creatures race toward him and he engages in hand-to-hand combat as the girl and the boy escape with a slug and a snail, but a mosquito creature tries to pull the girl and the boy off the backs of the slug and snail until a frog/insect like creature gets into a slap-fight with the boy and the mosquito gets in a slap-fight with the slug; the slug, snail and teens escape unharmed as the miniature man is surrounded by frog/insect like creatures and confronted by the "main" frog/insect like creature; they have a drawn-out sword battle and it is implied that the miniature man might have been killed, but we later see him alive, with a black eye.
► A swarm of bats being ridden by frog/insect like creatures are directed to block the sky when a group of miniature men riding hummingbirds engages them; a miniature teenage girl throws an acorn backwards, knocking a frog/insect like creature off a bat (a dog eats the frog/insect like creature when it hits the ground); the frog/insect like creatures on bats try to punch the miniature men off the hummingbirds and we see two miniature men knocked off hummingbirds (we do not see them hit the ground); many bats are knocked down, but the frog/insect like creatures are not seen hitting the ground; a frog/insect like creature hits the bird that a miniature teenage boy is riding causing the bird to turn into a skeleton and the boy begins to fall to the ground but he leaps onto a tree safely.
► A miniature man and a frog/insect like creature engage in a heated battle and the frog/insect like creature remarks that he will not "leave" the miniature man for dead, but will make sure he is dead; they fight with swords and we see the frog/insect like creature knock the miniature man to the ground and places its foot on top of the man (we see rot bubbling from where the frog/insect like creature's foot is on the man's chest) until a miniature teenage boy strikes the frog/insect like creature (we see a swirl of glitter appear and blow away the frog/insect like creature).
► During a heated battle, we see a miniature man and a frog/insect like creature punching one another, circling each other and the frog/insect like creature fires multiple arrows at the miniature man, missing.
► A man watches as three large crows chase a hummingbird and that scene cuts between the full-size man and a miniature teen boy riding on the back of the hummingbird, being chased by three frog/insect like creatures riding on the backs of crows; the scene cuts between the two perspectives, stopping with the miniature teen boy being thrown off his hummingbird and leaping from tree to tree while the frog/insect like creatures fire arrows at him, missing, but creating bubbles of rot on the trees as the arrows hit; the boy leaps from tree to tree, but is knocked off a leaf and is saved, moments before hitting the ground, by a miniature man riding on a hummingbird; the man fires an arrow at one of the frog/insect like creatures on the back of a raven, knocking it off the bird (we see what is implied to be the frog/insect like creature hitting the windshield of a taxi) and in full-size perspective, we see the miniature teen boy's hummingbird fall to the ground, and it is picked up by a man, who takes the saddle off the bird, and then sets it free, unharmed.
► A swarm of frog/insect like creatures on the backs of ravens chase a miniature teenage girl and a miniature teenage boy on the back of a sparrow: the boy steers the sparrow to the ground, crashing and dipping into a mouse hole and the boy is terrified when a mouse appears (it is three times larger than the teens), bears its teeth and tries to attack the girl; the boy leaps out of the hole to safety and when the girl tries to do the same, she hits her head and lands unconscious on the ground; the boy distracts the mouse as it corners the girl and a miniature man jumps into the hole and cuts off one of the mouse's whiskers before it scampers away and the girl and the boy escape safely.
► A frog/insect like creature slaps another frog/insect like creature angrily while a large mosquito watches and laughs; the frog/insect like creature punches the laughing mosquito as the first frog/insect like creature walks away and they are seen slapping/hitting one another as the other frog/insect like creature disappears.
► A frog/insect like creature riding on the back of a massive mole rips through the center of a tree where a large group of humanized plants and forest creatures are standing and the frog/insect like creature shouts at the crowd, then grabs a snail and a slug and quickly races away; a miniature man tries to chase them but is stopped when rocks block the underground tunnel.
► A miniature man slams a miniature teenage boy against a wall angrily as a miniature teenage girl watches and the man then shouts at the boy.
► A frog/insect like creature shows off the pelt of a rat to his father, with the skull of the rat being used by him as a helmet; the frog/insect like creature tells his father that the rat was "caught in the crossfire" during a fight earlier in the day.
► We see a miniature teenage boy being roughed up by a frog and a mole when the frog lifts up the boy (we only see his torso and leg) and we hear a punching noise, then the frog instructs a miniature man to kill the boy by feeding him to a snake until a second miniature man interrupts them, suggesting that the frog put the boy in a beehive to torture him and the frog drops the boy and walks away, obviously upset; the boy later jokes with the man that he was punched twice and the man did nothing to stop it.
► A miniature teenage girl, a miniature teenage boy and a miniature man run through a full-sized office as a full-sized dog chases them: a full-size man (the miniature teenage girl's father) chases them and captures the girl inside a vacuum; he looks at her and passes out from shock hitting his head on a table (we see him being awakened by the sound of a buzzer and he is unharmed).
► During a high-speed competitive race, we see a miniature teenage boy on the back of a sparrow crash through a thorn bush; he rides through and comes out unharmed. A miniature teenage girl jumps and slides off the head of a hummingbird as the hummingbird snaps at her bottom (the girl is unharmed). A miniature teen boy on the back of a bird crashes in front of a miniature man and the boy stands up unharmed. A miniature teenage girl leaps from a windowsill aiming for a life-size table but falls and hits a tin; she stands up unharmed. A miniature teenage girl and a miniature teenage boy leap down from a tree; the girl shrieks in fear, but stands up as she hits the ground, unharmed. A miniature teenage girl shrieks as a miniature teenage boy flies on the back of a sparrow.
► A man jokingly refers to an elderly dog as only having three legs and the man's teenage daughter is surprised when she sees the dog alive. We see an elderly dog throughout the movie and it appears healthy, but missing a front leg and one of its eyes (we see a closed eyelid where a second eye should be). A three-legged dog falls as it tries to stretch from a chair to a desk; it is unharmed. A man stumbles, stands up and runs quickly, then stumbles a second time. A frog/insect like creature slips on slug slime then rights itself. A man falls out of a tree and a camera falls off the tree at the same time. A man is startled when a teen girl (his daughter) surprises him. A miniature teenage girl is startled when she backs into a talking caterpillar.
► A teen girl and her father act disgusted as they watch a computer monitor and the girl implies that she is watching a slug try to eat a miniature teenage boy (we do not see it). A slug, its eyes on the end of antenna and sticking off its head, jokingly hits a miniature teenage boy in the eye with its eye. We see a slug "suck" its antenna-eyes into its head and then spin them around in his mouth. A frog/insect like creature pokes a slug in the eye, and the slug in turn pokes the snail in the eye. A slug and a snail tease one another, and then tickle each other.
► A slug is shoved in front of a miniature teenage boy, we see the boy's face bounce into what would be the slug's backside and the slug jokes, "Enjoy the view." A slug and a snail talk to a fruit fly, remarking how the fly was spending his short life as the fly transforms into a progressively older fly, and then croaks and falls over, dead (for humor).
► A caterpillar announces to a massive gathering of humanized acorns, flowers and forest creatures that the "queen of the forest" had died. A frog/insect like creature warns a slug, "If flower dies, you die." A miniature man and a miniature teenage boy mock a miniature teenage girl's full-sized father, saying that he crashes through the forest. A miniature teenage boy tells a miniature teenage girl that a "crasher" (i.e. a full-sized human) had killed his uncle; the boy laughs and reveals that he was joking. A miniature man mentions the death of a miniature teenage boy's father on two occasions. A man vaguely refers to the death of his teenage daughter's mother and the girl tells him that she does "not want to talk about it." A teen girl's voiceover explains that there is an eternal struggle between "rot and decay" and the life of the forest. A man refers to bats flying into hair, saying it is a myth.
PROFANITY 1 - 1 mild anatomical term, 1 mild obscenity derivative (heck), name-calling (vile, gaudy, unlike you � she's got orders, old fleabag, disgusting, flat face, funny, psychopaths, idiot, crazy old uncle, jerk, like a bear, big dumb and slow, ginormous flabby and stinky, mean, head like rocks, whole lot of ugly, terrible, big bag of shut-your-flat-face, jelly butt).

We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process.

In this installment of What Brides Should Know we look at what the wedding planners had to say. There seems to be a lot of confusion on just what a wedding planner does versus a Day of Coordinator. Also, planners want you to know just how much is involved on there end to plan and coordinate your wedding.
Having walked in their shoes, I have the utmost respect for good wedding planners and what they do. A good planner is the lubricant that makes all the parts of such a complex event glide smoothly. A good planner will save you more than they will ever cost you. By that I don't necessarily mean that your bottom line will be less, more that the value you get for the dollars spent will be so much more than you can do on your own.
Even the smallest wedding is a highly complex dance of timing, goods and services and style. All culminating in a day that you, as the bride, groom or mother of the bride want/ need to be able to relax and focus on the meaning of the day; not wrangle vendors, details and guests. For even the smallest budget bride, there is a planner or day of coordinator to make this happen.
Without further ado, here is what the planners had to say in their own words.
I think a lot of brides out there don't fully understand the full scope of what it is a planner/coordinator does. Many see it as a frivolous expense, or something that's only for the rich and famous. Not so! Also, "planning" and "coordinating" are two completely separate things, which I think some brides aren't aware of.
PLANNING ~ Your wedding is probably the biggest event you'll ever plan in your entire life. Contracts, comparing vendors, packages, pricing, meetings, traditions, etiquette,timelines and everything else you need to think about when planning a wedding can be seriously overwhelming and take all the fun out of planning your happy day. A professional planner will handle your planning headaches, leaving you to enjoy the process.
COORDINATING ~ A professional coordinator is DIFFERENT than a professional planner. A coordinator, in my opinion, is even MORE important than a planner. Some brides that I've advertised to respond saying "I'm really creative and good at organizing, so I'm handling it myself." Good for you! But who are you going to delegate tasks to on the wedding day? Mom? Bridesmaids? Girlfriends? You want your loved ones WITH you on wedding day, not off doing the time consuming setup details and directing the vendors. The best way to ensure that everyone is free to enjoy the day is to hire a coordinator.
Amy Kemp Nixon
I would love for brides to spend one day in our shoes. We have been very blessed with brides that appreciate what we actually do for them and the amount of work we spend on our client's behalf. However, there is always that handful that think we just get on the phone and make a couple of appointments and that's it! A good designer/planner/coordinator will do everything on your behalf except walk down the aisle and sign the marriage license. That is what you pay for. Appointments, hours of design and changes, talking to and booking vendors on your behalf, producing a good timeline and coordinating between each vendor according to that timeline, ensuring payments are made on time, ensuring all contracts are correct, ensuring the rsvp list is updated, ensuring incidentals are all taken care of, ensuring the musicians are all on the same page, ensuring guest list is in place, etc. The list goes on.
On-the-Day Direction? Same thing happens and there is no such thing as JUST on-the-day direction. You need to meet with brides ahead of time and go over itineraries, vendor responsibilities and carry out instructions on behalf of the client. This does not happen as a show up on the day and direct. Its a misconception and brides need to know this!
Brides need to interview wedding planners and get in writing exactly what they do. Full service means unlimited service. On the Day means on the day orchestrating, with some help prior to ensure everything flows smoothly.
Elyn Rahman
This from Denise, I just love…
I was talking to someone today who pooh poohed the idea of hiring a wedding co-ordinator when she married as she said that part of the 'enjoyment' was the planning side of things, then I asked her about her wedding day she said she hated every minute because there was a delay in the kitchen, she spilt wine on her dress and the disco played music that they didnt like. It was soooo stressful – and I explained that is why brides need co-ordinators to deal with all that and chat to the other vendors so that they know exactly what they are supposed to be doing and when.
Denise Meredith
Real bride Jessica had this to say
As a recently married bride, the one thing that I've had the most difficulty with in regards to vendors has been the fall-out when something goes wrong. When I sign a contract and pay a fee for your service, I feel that whatever I paid for and what is included in the contract should be included in my wedding. Jessica
To which Layla replied
To the real bride, Jessica: I also handle complaints afterwards for my brides. Vendors respond quickly to me. I am bringing them business all the time. They do NOT want a coordinator to know that they did not quickly resolve a complaint, b/c I will tell any other brides that ask me about them, that they don't deal well with problems after the fact.
Layla D. Smith
If you are a bride, you owe it to yourself to at least explore the possibility of having a planning or coordinator by your side. It is the single best way to be sure that you are free to enjoy one of the most special days of your life .

Washington Post profiles new head of March for Life
January 25, 2013
On the day of the March for Life, the Washington Post has published a profile of Jeanne Monahan, the new head organizer for the annual march.
The Post story contrasts Monahan's approach with that of Nellie Gray, the founder of the March for Life, who ran the event until her death last year. While depicting Gray as rigid in her approach and isolated from the media, the Post offers a more positive portrayal of Monahan, suggesting that she will give a new look to the annual March.

The Boston University men's soccer team wrapped up its 2012 season Saturday with a difficult 1–0 loss in overtime to the University of New Hampshire.
"You know, it was a struggle from the very beginning," said BU coach Neil Roberts. "Obviously I'm not happy with our record, but I am very happy with the way the kids competed and dealt with the adversity."
Six of the Terriers' first seven games were against ranked teams including then-No. 1 University of North Carolina and then-No. 3 University of Connecticut. In the difficult stretch, BU defeated rival then-No. 11 Boston College on Aug. 27 1–0 on a goal from junior midfielder Derek McCaffery.
Though they suffered four losses in the stretch, Roberts said he was happy with the Terriers' determination.
"BC was the only team we had our whole team for and we showed we can compete with those teams," Roberts said. "We can compete with Connecticut, we can compete with North Carolina, but then we just keep losing bodies and that makes it difficult. Any kid, any athlete with merit wants to compete against the best."
The injuries were frequent and devastating for BU, especially on defense.
The first blow was a significant one as reigning America East Defender of the Year junior Kelvin Madzongwe went down early against Wake Forest University on Aug. 31. Madzongwe was later diagnosed with a torn ACL and forced to sit for the remainder of the season.
Freshman defender Jeroen Blugh, in his first home game as a collegiate athlete, went down with a torn ACL. Blugh's lost the rest of his freshman campaign. Both defenseman underwent surgery during the season and will be ready for next year.
"It's a very difficult rehab, but they are both mentally ready for it and they should be 100 percent in August," Roberts said.
After struggling early in the year, the Terrier offense found a rhythm on Sept. 18 against The College of the Holy Cross. Against the Crusaders, BU put up four goals including two goals from redshirt freshman forward Mac McGuire and another for senior forward Michael Bustamante. The two goals were the first of McGuire's collegiate career while Bustamante's goal was his first in over a year as he sat out all of the 2011 season due to injury.
With the Terriers moving to the Patriot League next year, BU opened its final season of America East conference play on Sept. 29 at home against the University of Hartford. Though the game ended in a 1–1 tie, BU outshot the Hawks 35–11. Bustamante netted the lone goal in the game while also recording a career-high 11 shots.
After taking care of Adelphi University, BU visited Stony Brook University for a difficult match against the defending America East Champions. Coming into the game, Stony Brook was the top team in America East and was playing strong soccer. BU was not intimidated. The Terriers defeated Stony Brook on an overtime goal from sophomore forward Dominique Badji and headed home to play an equally difficult match against the University of Vermont.
Neither the Catamounts nor the Terriers could score, and the game ended in a 0–0 tie.
BU hit a significant roadblock on Oct. 13 when it visited University of Maryland-Baltimore County and suffered a humiliating 5–1 loss.
Disappointed with its performance in Baltimore, BU practiced hard for the next few days and was ready to take on a Harvard University team that entered the game with only one win on the season. The Terriers appeared to dominate the entire game, but with only a few minutes left in the second overtime, the Crimson got one chance, and made the most of it, scoring and ending the contest.
Though their chances of making the tournament were slim to none, the Terriers continued to play hard in their final games. They shut out both Binghamton University and Albany University in their final home games before suffering a loss to UNH in overtime to end the season.
"Unfortunately, we just kept losing quality players this year," Roberts said. "Having said that, I couldn't be happier with the kids that were left standing and how they competed right up until the end in the New Hampshire game.
"The last few games they knew they weren't going to make the tournament, they knew they couldn't play in the conference tournament, but they still went out and fought hard every game, won games and that was enjoyable to watch."

Give an explicit example of a bijection from [0,1] to the set of real numbers.
I'm confused on how to do this one because it is a closed set.
Recall that a finite composition of bijections is also a bijection. [I don't remember the infinite case]
Let f be a bijection between [0,1] and (0,1) and let g be a bijection between (0,1) and R. then g o f is a bijection between [0,1] and R
f(x): [0, 1] -> (0, 1) by
f(0) = 1/2
If n is a positive integer, then f(1/n) = 1/(n + 2)
Otherwise (that is, if x is not zero and cannot be written in the form 1/n for n a positive integer), then f(x) = x.
g(x) = tan( x - /2)
See also this thread for a bijection between [0, 1] and (0, 1).

Roger Federer vs. Ernests Gulbis: Score and Recap from 2014 French OpenJune 1, 2014
For the last nine years, Roger Federer has been a lock to make at least the quarterfinals at Roland Garros. You know what they say about good things.
Federer's attempt to make his French Open quarterfinals streak a decade long failed Sunday, as Ernests Gulbis came back from a first-set defeat to earn a 6-7 (5), 7-6 (3), 6-2, 4-6, 6-3 win over the world's fourth-ranked player.
Gulbis, 25, will make his second French Open quarters appearance. His first came in 2008, when the then-unseeded Latvian shocked the world and announced his arrival on the professional scene. Given Federer's steely consistency and opening-set win, Gulbis' latest trip six years later is no less surprising.
Judy Battista of NFL.com highlighted the new "reality" for Federer:
Federer came into the fourth round looking to set his latest record in a career full of them. With 41 Grand Slam quarterfinals appearances, Federer is tied with Jimmy Connors for the best mark on the men's circuit in the open era. Sunday's match proved why Father Time is the biggest opponent to that level of prolonged success.
Federer has been borderline unstoppable with his serve throughout the 2014 season, but his game betrayed him at the worst possible time. He allowed Gulbis to break him seven times, was hit-and-miss with his accuracy levels and won barely half of his second-serve points. The fourth-seeded Swiss also made an uncharacteristic 59 unforced errors to aid his opponent along the way.
Meanwhile, Gulbis was at times overpowering with his serve. His serve reached a maximum speed of 222 kilometers per hours (138 mph) and averaged well over 200 kmh (124 mph) throughout. Placing the serve proved difficult early on, but Gulbis only gained confidence as the match went along.
That confidence can be traced in large part to a key point in the second set. Following a back-and-forth slog of an opening set that saw Federer win in a tiebreaker, the Swiss took a 5-3 lead in the second and looked to be on the verge of closing a win out in fine fashion. He then held a double-set point only to lose it as Gulbis battled with his back against the wall.
Gulbis broke Federer and held serve himself to force a second tiebreak, which he won mostly with ease. That was followed by a dominant 6-2 triumph in the third set.
As it became clear the momentum had shifted, the seams began to show for Federer. He made 12 unforced errors in the set compared to just two for Gulbis and failed to dominate the net despite an aggressive, attacking strategy.
The fourth set provided the match's second turning point.
Like he did in the second, Federer started the critical fourth set dominant. He broke Gulbis and held on his own serve to take a 5-2 lead. Facing the prospect of a deciding fifth set and cramping in his back/hamstring area, Gulbis requested a timeout and went back to the locker room with the training staff. He emerged to the sound of boos raining down upon him nearly 10 minutes later.
Fan displeasure or not, that break was just the boost Gulbis needed.
He came out of the locker room renewed, winning the next two games and giving the crowd a strange sense of deja vu. Federer was able to stave off Gulbis to win the fourth set 6-4, but whatever momentum he'd gathered had vanished. Gulbis opened the fifth and deciding set by winning each of the first three games, making five of six since the injury timeout.
The result felt largely academic from there. With both players gassed as the three-hour mark came and passed, Gulbis' power began taking over. He won his first nine first-serve points in the set, overpowered Federer with a thunderous forehand and avoided costly mistakes. Federer fought to hold his serve, but Gulbis rode that initial break to finish off the match.
For Gulbis, this win is a long time coming.
Not only does it come with the satisfaction of taking down arguably the greatest player in history, but it also happened where his rise first began. Gulbis went from French quarterfinalist in 2008 to advancing past the second round just once over the next six years. With two wins on the calendar year and a rise to No. 17 on the world rankings, though, Gulbis is finally realizing the promise he showed in Paris those years ago.
"I'm jumping on the last train," Gulbis told reporters prior to his match against Federer. "I'm 25, so this was my last opportunity to be really successful, I think, and I think I have a good seven, eight more years to play at the top level."
Up next is Tomas Berdych, the sixth-seeded Czech who beat John Isner in straight sets to reach his second quarterfinal at Roland Garros. Berdych has taken four of his first six matchups against Gulbis, including their only previous head-to-head battle on clay in 2011. It's worth noting, though, that Berdych's level of play has tended to vary wildly on the clay surface—specifically at Roland Garros.
Gulbis may wind up continuing his run to the semis, where Novak Djokovic would likely wait.
Federer is left with the latest in a list of growing frustrations at major championships. His streak of 36 straight Slam quarterfinals ended last year, starting what's now a string of three missed quarters in four tries. With age 33 coming up in August, it's an open secret that Federer is nearing the end.

CSCOPE program under fire
Updated 7:45 pm, Thursday, April 4, 2013
Despite heated messages to the Region 5 Education Service Center, its director continued to tout the benefits and successes of a widely used educational curriculum support system at a public forum in Lumberton last week.
More than 100 people gathered March 25, several upset with the use of CSCOPE, to hear from Lumberton ISD and Region 5 ESC officials. The system - which is used by 858 other districts - has attracted attention from across the state and many critics have said it promotes anti-American and pro Islamic attitudes and beliefs.
Danny Lovett, Region 5 ESC executive director, said many of the accusations against the curriculum have been sensational - some calling the organization anti-American and Communist. The nonprofit has received letters and emails from some residents calling the staff the "most disgusting bunch of creatures," Lovett said. He said one recommended certain teachers go on a "freedom fighters" weekend and have them be doused with an accelerant and set on fire or thrown out a building or worse, he said.
The first threat came shortly after the Sandy Hook School Elementary shootings. Lovett said one of his employees called him asking if she needed to be worried about the safety of her children and herself because of the growing hatred over the anti-American claim.
"No one here is out to tear down this state or this country," Lovett said.

2013 Michigan music roundup Part 2 of 3
- December 18th, 2013
- Posted in Reviews
- By Sean Bradley
- Write comment
Here's part 2 of our three-part round of Michigan releases for 2013. Read part 1, featuring Jake Simmons and the Little Ghosts, Flint Eastwood and The Swellers.
Lights and Caves "In Satori" EP
Formed late in 2012, Lansing-based Lights and Caves started writing songs and playing gigs almost immediately. With 2013 came the addition of Elliot Street Lunatic founder/guitarist/singer Jason Marr on guitar and vocals. Marr helped produce, and even played on, the EP. Released in August, the band has been playing gigs around the state any chance it gets.
From my Lansing City Pulse review: "The opener "Manchy" gives a nod to Atlanta's Manchester Orchestra, with rocking but polished guitar chords mixed with pounding drums that proclaim the music's danceability in no uncertain terms. "In Satori" recalls Radiohead's "Reckoner," with a finger-picked clean guitar countering another, Ebow-laden guitar that calmly washes over a light snare-dominated beat.
It all combines to hold Gorden's Thom Yorke-esque falsetto to Earth. The same Radiohead influence is evident on "Run," but with a lot more ambiance and spaciousness. Marr's influence on this band is pretty obvious; the opening of "Tragedy" recalls ESL's own song "Maps" from their second album "Ghost Town Lullabies." Some of his guitar tones here sound straight out of ESL's soundworld.
Moses "Gush" LP
Mount Pleasant band Moses, originally a large, multi-instrument acoustic outfit, changed its sound dramatically in 2013 by going fully electric and cutting down to three members (or sometimes four, adding the occasional extra guitarist at live shows) with just electric guitar, bass, drums and vocals. The band released its long-awaited debut album, "Gush," in November on its Bandcamp page and played a few low-key shows to promote it.
From my Central Michigan Life review: "The vocable "ah-ha"s throughout "Huron," recorded with ambiance and the live crowd in mind, will stay in your head for days.
The guitars driving the signature melody are accompanied by Schaeffer's smooth and driving drum patterns and a crunchy rhythm guitar, while Pitzer's vocals provide chill-inducing feeling, especially the line "When did we, when did we become what we are?" This line is delivered with a great conviction and energy and is definitely a stand out track on this LP."
Small Parks "Meet Me In Cognito" EP
Formed out of the ashes of post-rock band Good Weather for Airstrikes, Lansing-based Small Parks strips away the long, drawn out instrumentals and exchanges them for tight, to-the-point emo punk songs.
From my LMTV review: ""Parallel Thoughts" has such a Gin Blossoms vibe toward the beginning, especially recalling their early 90′s hit "Hey Jealousy". Talo's distorted, intricate guitar picking gives the songs another tip-off to emo; noodley and textured like Connecticut's The World is a Beautiful Place and I am No Longer Afraid to Die or Rockford, Illinois' Joie De Vivre. Radick shows honesty and sadness in his lyrics: "You're no longer with me when I sleep but your body still haunts me in my dreams/We could be onto something here/But I'm too afraid of failure to find out" and "yes it is true I once loved you/And at one point I loved myself too"."

I do hate labels, but they are necessary. Labels serve to classify things, and convey a lot of information in a word or two. As misleading as labels can be, they are necessary for good communication in a limited amount of time and space (for example, a tagline for a blog).
Other than announcing I am now embracing the "secular humanist" label, my previous post said remarkably little. That is my way of dealing with things that feel very large to me, my approach of taking little steps, one bit at a time. The post did not announce a change in my perspectives, my perspectives have been stable for quite some time. Also, I did not go looking at secular humanism and think "Ooh, this sounds great! I'm going to become this!" Instead, I followed the path in front of me, I was on my search for truth. Amongst other things, I spent too much time reading up on theology (while I should have been finishing my Master's in Engineering). This search for truth, this search for "God" if you will, led me to where I am now. With the previous post, I'm just acknowledging to the world and to myself, that the "secular humanist" label is possibly the one that most accurately describes my views. My other alternative is to drop the "secular" and capitalise "Humanist".
So, what is Humanism? Francis Mortyn left the following comment on my previous post, and I like the way it describes Humanism:
The word "Humanist" implies definition by reference to humanity. The word makes no reference at all to any Gods, whether to affirm or deny them. In this, it differs clearly from terms like "atheist" which are about Gods or God.
Humanism is not about metaphysics, the existence of things, whether to assert or deny them. Humanism is about ethics, asserting that right and wrong do exist and do matter, and they are a human rather than a divine concern.
As Humanist Albert Einstein put it, "I believe that we have to content ourselves with our imperfect knowledge and understanding, and treat values and moral obligations as a purely human problem – the most important of all human problems."
Where is the measure of what is right and what is wrong? Humanists say it rests firmly in human experience. As Humanist Karl Popper points out, if an act results in a reduction of needless suffering, it is a good act.
Human experience is known by observable evidence interpreted by reason. This is solid ground on which to build. It provides a dependable ethical foundation better than the speculative claims of alleged supernatural revelation.
Great stuff…

Starting With An Attention Grabber
Starting a piece of writing with an attention grabber is a good approach to securing reader interest. Hooking the reader with an attention grabber such as a question, a surprise, or maybe a quotation creates a desire to read on to see what happens next. Even if all the information in the body of the essay is solid, it's important to get the reader to that point with a good attention grabber. Starting an essay with an attention grabber ensures that your audience will want to keep reading.
Time4Writing's free writing resources show students how to start a paper with an interesting attention grabber. Designed to help students improve their writing skills, regardless of academic grade or proficiency level, Time4Writing's 8-week courses provide more in-depth practice and one-on-one instruction by a certified teacher.

apr 10 works great thats my bday
By April 10 we should have a good idea what most teams could/should do in the draft.
Eh, I got the Jets, man I hate them. They are such a mess, they need almost anything.
So your pick will mean a lot to the rest of the draft
So we're doing April 10th?
April 10 is perfect for me. Really any time during the week starting April 1 is fine.
If this thing is on April fools days you guys can be sure I'm taking Warmack or Leon Sandcastle No.1

But I Can't........I collected Rosa as a kitten from the vets office, initially for a few weeks til he could rehome her, but once he saw us together he ticked that job off his mental 'to do list'..there was never a doubt in my mind that I'd keep her, or hers come to that!! We had almost 12 fun & love filled years together..I donate money to animal charity and would help in any way needed, like recently an injured dog was thankfully reunited with his family.......I did agree to foster him shortterm if his family hadn't been found, but having now thought things through, I won't have any more pets, my heart has been so badly broken and I for one have decided not to risk it been broken again..not for anything
deleted 26-30 3 Responses 5 Dec 14, 2011
No one will replace Rosa, but each one brings his or her own love with them. I always say never again - but I can't turn my back. A bit of my heart breaks off and goes with each little one, but somehow there seems still enough to go round, in time you'll find that I'm sure, but you have to have time.
You and Rosa shared a beautiful Love. It will last forever. How you feel is understandable, when you love that deeply it is very painful to lose someone.
You and Rosa, you both were a great couple! <br />
I suffer everytime when one of my furry friends dies, but love without grief is impossible.

Project Description
Since 1981, The Gugging House of Artists (a colorful building approximately 12.4 miles north of Vienna, Austria) has housed and encouraged the creativity of artists whose drawings, paintings, photography, objects, and writings have made them world-famous. There are currently 12 residents at the House of Artists (six of them represented by Galerie Gugging) who are among the most important representatives of contemporary Art Brut.
The history of the Gugging House of Artists dates back to 1954, when psychiatrist Leo Navratil administered diagnostic drawing tests to his patients at the Maria Gugging Psychiatric Clinic, unexpectedly discovering artistically talented individuals in his ward. Navratil's first book Schizophrenie und Kunst ("Schizophrenia and Art") was published in 1965. In 1970, the Gugging artists had their first exhibition in the Viennese Galerie nächst St. Stephan. By 1981, all artistically talented patients were housed under one roof—the Center for Art-Psychotherapy—and exhibitions featuring their work began to pop up all over Europe. Eventually, the center's name was changed to House of Artists and the psychological analysis of their art was no longer the focus—thus emphasizing individual talent over mental illness. Navarti's successor, Johann Feilacher sought to promote the artists' work widely in the international art market and, to this day, the Gugging artists have been part of more than 250 exhibitions in galleries and museums worldwide.
Ricco/Maresca represents some of the most celebrated works by residents Johann Hauser, Franz Kamlander, Johann Korec, Franz Kernbeis, Henireich Reisenbauer, Arnold Schmidt, Günther Schützenhöfer, Oswald Tschirtner, August Walla, and Karl Vondal. Reductive forms are placed in sophisticated compositions to create this overwhelmingly affective collective oeuvre that marries emotional intricacy, technical precision, imagination, and ingenuity—all of which epitomize the raw talent and artistic integrity fostered at Gugging.
