Prince didn't like to play by the rules and remained an enigma to the end.
The 57-year-old singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist, who died Thursday at his estate in a Minneapolis suburb, had little respect for genres, tumbling freely and confidently among funk, rock, R&B, jazz and everything along the way. It made him one of the most prolific and influential figures for generations of musicians.
He flaunted his sexuality, delivering some of the most assertive come-hither Top 10 hits of the modern era while adorned in lace, heels and satin panties — preferably purple, thank you.
He didn't do many interviews to promote his albums and he still became one of the best-selling pop artists of all time.
He rarely announced formal tour dates, preferring to just show up in a city one day and set off a ticket feeding frenzy. He knew the shows would sell out. They always did.
For nearly a decade of his long career, Prince recorded and released music not as Prince but rather as an unpronounceable glyph, and yet he remained on the tip of everyone's tongues.
Then he found religion and rejected his past, and still his fans stood by him — through the endless, tireless smooth jazz and gospel records — until he found himself again and embraced it with so much enthusiasm that it truly felt like we would have him forever.

Jan. 30 (UPI) -- General Atomics has received a $532.6 million contract modification to manufacture an additional Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System for the U.S. Navy.
The modification includes manufacturing, assembly, inspection, testing, and checkout duties for the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System to be used by the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise. The contract also covers installation tasks, spares and repairs.
Work on the contract will be performed at a variety of locations including San Diego, Calif.; Mankato, Minn.; Tupelo, Miss.; Cincinnati, Ohio, and others. The U.S. Department of Defense expects the work to be complete by September 2027.
General Atomics received $11 million in funding at the time of the modification award. The Naval Air Systems Command in Patuxent River, Md., is listed as the contracting activity.
Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System, or EMALS, is a device being developed by General Atomics to replace existing catapult systems used by U.S. aircraft carriers. The system has already been installed on the Navy's USS Gerald R. Ford, with John F. Kennedy scheduled to be the second vessel to receive the upgrade.
EMALS is designed to improve upon current launch systems by reducing manning and life-cycle cost, installed volume, topside weight, and thermal signatures. General Atomics says the systems also increase launch operational ability for both manned and unmanned aircraft.

My recent physical exam revealed that I have a "high" LDL cholesterol level of 160. What foods might I be eating that cause a higher LDL? Any foods that I should be eating more of to help lower it?
Eating more plant foods and fewer animal and processed foods is an excellent way to lower LDL cholesterol. Many foods are linked to an improved LDL cholesterol profile including garlic, onions, chili peppers, shiitake mushrooms, artichokes, soy products, grapes, and the new margarine spreads that contain plant sterols and stanols. Foods high in soluble fiber are particularly helpful in lowering LDL cholesterol levels. Brown rice bran and oat bran are especially useful because of their soluble fiber content. Carrots may also be beneficial because they contain calcium pectate, a type of soluble fiber. In addition, choose foods that are high in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, pantethine (active form of vitamin B5 pantothenic acid), chromium, copper, and lycopene.

"I'm thrilled to be working with CMG," states MacKenzie. "I really think of my team as family. I believe when a family works together they are strong, and I am certain we will accomplish great things."
The young but multi-faceted artist has been putting pen to paper since the age of 12 and putting those lyrics to melodies by learning the bass, electric and acoustic guitar. The singer-songwriter has opened for established acts Big & Rich, Trick Pony, Tracy Lawrence, Joe Diffie, and Mark Chesnutt, and has headlined events such as NAMM, Nashville Rising Star, and the Airborne Annual Convention.
Previously featured on Radio Disney, the Oklahoman will release a new self-penned single, (produced by Emmy Award-winning Will Edwards), later this year.

As this holiday weekend comes to a close, I wanted to reflect on what a wonderful one it was. :)
On Wednesday night, my parents—with Melvin's help—surprised me and my younger sister by flying from Hawaii and showing up at our front door to celebrate Thanksgiving with us. It was such a wonderful surprise.
We helped ourselves to an amazing feast on Thanksgiving Day. And, as my dad blessed the food, I teared up thanking God for His many blessings.
I hope your Thanksgiving weekend was a blessed one.
Live on the Bright Side,

Isn't this a wonderful, non-run-of-the-mill cover? And as a Canadian author, she's willing to send to Canada, so if you're a Canadian who laments the lack of contests for you, definitely sign up for this one. 🙂

From political danger to personal drama, life is about to get explosive…
The legacy of literary icon Sherlock Holmes is alive and well in 1912 Canada, where best friends Merinda Herringford and Jem Watts continue to develop their skills as consulting detectives.
The city of Toronto has been thrown into upheaval by the arrival of radical anarchist Emma Goldman. Amid this political chaos, Benny Citrone of the Royal North-West Mounted Police arrives at Merinda and Jem's flat, requesting assistance in locating his runaway cousin—a man with a deadly talent.
While Merinda eagerly accepts the case, she finds herself constantly butting heads—and hearts—with Benny. Meanwhile, Jem has her hands full with a husband who is determined to keep her out of harm's way.
As Merinda and Jem close in on the danger they've tracked from Toronto to Chicago, they uncover a sinister plot to assassinate presidential candidate Theodore Roosevelt. Will they be able to save the day and resolve the troubles threatening their future happiness before it's too late?

Others in this Series, in order, the last is pre-orderable:
Questions about Rachel's Story
What did you enjoy most about writing this book?
The research (which took me around Toronto and to Chicago ). I loved reading about Roosevelt. One of my favourite books that I read in conjunction with him is called Team of Rivals and I highly recommend it. Especially because I am fascinated by the history of journalism during this era of upheaval. I also really really enjoyed all the research and works I consulted on the Royal Northwest Mounted Police. The Force is a massive part of my family history and I loved digging into it.
Did you include a real historical character or incident in your story?
I actually included two: Theodore Roosevelt and Emma Goldman. I also included (quite fictionally) the Republican National Convention in Chicago in August 1912. I studied the convention and all of its minutes with a lot of depth although, of course, put my own fictional spin on it.
If you could be guaranteed to publish a book set anywhere and at anytime, what setting would you love to set a novel in?
I would love to set a book during the American Revolution. Especially during the time of the Boston Tea party. I love that part of history and I love the Canadian (British) connection. I have dappled with this quite a bit. Readers of the Herringford and Watts series will learn I am quite passionate about the history of journalism and the journalism of this time period and its printing presses (and the influence of both) are a huge passion of mine.

Wonder Girl barely escaped Lex Luthor's sadistic control. She is determined to track down the criminal mastermind and decides the best place to start is at the beginning.
Back at the rundown gym where Luthor captured her WG comes up on the Luchador. It can't be a coincidence that the super-thug for hire she thinks, and, confident she can easily handle the second rate goon WG moves in to take him down. The fight is not as easy as she expected, especially when Luchador rips of her belt of strength and gets the upper hand. However WG is far from helpless and manages to turn the tables and claim victory. At least until a massive form comes up and KO's her from behind.
WG wakes up and finds her power items laying near by. She is confronted by Baine who wants to destroy her in a fair contest where she is at full power. Many times Wonder Woman warned WG about going after super-villains that she isn't ready to take on, but she is confident that with the bracers and belt of strength she is more than a match for Baine. WG starts off strong, avoiding Baine's grasp and landing one hit after another, but suddenly baine gets the upper hand and WG takes a devastating beating.
When WG comes to, she finds herself chained arms over head and at the mercy of the Luchador that wants to pay her back for the beating she gave him. Luchador takes full advantage, using a special "toy" he brought along to force WG to cum despite her desperate struggles. WG tries to resist and get back control but Luchador tears open her uniform, exposing her perfect young tits and little pussy, already soaking wet. WG is forced to cum over and over until Luchador is satisfied she is weak and ready for a little test he wants to do.

The festival is celebrated with intense enthusiasm in West Bengal. It is popular as Durga Puja there. Other whole state The festival is celebrated for a different reason here. The festivities last for ten days. The tenth day is dedicated to the worship of goddess Durga. Durga embodies 'Shakti', the life force. The idols are kept in pandals specially constructed for this occasion for a period of nine days. And on the ninth day they are taken for visarjan (immersion ceremony) in rivers and ponds.
As the legend goes, a mighty demon named Mahisasura had conquered Indralok (heaven) thereby forcing the gods and their king Indra to flee. The gods then approached Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, the holy trinity in the Hindu pantheon. They, in turn, prayed to the divine mother Durga to intervene and put an end to Mahisasura's tyranny, as the latter was bestowed a boon that his death would come only at the hands of a woman and nobody else. Goddess Durga riding her vehicle the lion defeated the demon king. Since then, Durga has been revered for her invincibility. Durga is also a manifestation of Parvati, wife of Lord Shiva.

GORHAM – You do indeed pass a small, reeds-ringed pond when you follow the private drive to this pleasantly secluded home in a woodsy neighborhood of very few houses. But the smallness pretty much ends with the pond.
Open and spacious are two key words with this 2009 house, which sits on two acres and at 2,362 square feet is not huge, but rather just as big as it should be. Single-level, and top-quality-built; finely finished, completely custom, and super-efficient, the home features a wonderful great room measuring 29 feet wide by 38 feet deep. It is a room designed to bring families together, and to entertain in.
In one corner is the kitchen, whose stainless GE Profile appliances include both a wall oven and a four-burner gas range. The curved island with dining overhang, and other surfaces, here and in the handy butler's pantry with sink, are granite. Cabinetry is hickory, and abundant.
The great room's inside-wall alcove offers a perfect media space, and can accommodate a very big screen indeed. Beside the door, there is a chimney in the wall; many buyers would add a wood stove or gas stove to create a hearth.
There's plenty more space for a second sitting area, and a kids' play area. The dining space can hold a very long table, and opens out to a back deck that runs the length of the house, where there's a hot tub at the far end.
Down the center hall, a full bath (with laundry) serves bedrooms two and three. In the east wing, the private master suite has two walk-in closets with built-ins, and a bath with both a jetted tub and a shower enclosure.
The full basement is open, its expanse beneath 9-foot ceilings uninterrupted by posts. Heat (six zones) is radiant throughout, basement and garage included. The latter has 10-foot doors, a great workshop area with built-ins, a sink, and a 12-foot overhang for a tractor and other equipment. The setup is ideal for a contractor.
The home at 60 Small Pond Road, Gorham, is listed for sale at $379,000 by Connie Howe of Alliance Realty in Westbrook. Taxes are $5,377 (2016). For more information or to arrange a showing, please contact Connie at 232-9108, 874-7653 or at [email protected].

Advantages and Disadvantages of Interlaced Scan Signal
Different types of television sets, uses different program scan signal, thus projects varied images whenever a program is shown on the screen. A flicker or an alteration of the images may be present when the signal projected is drawn by a bandwidth conservative pulling interlaced scan signal.
Once you see video formats as 480p or 720p, the numerical value designates just how many horizontal lines of resolution the video signal uses, while the letter "p" indicates it is a progressive scan signal, hence 480p would just mean 480 horizontal lines of resolution with progressive scan. Correspondingly, the 1080i scan signal format confines 1080 lines of resolution that are interlaced. Both 720p and 1080i are used by HDTV.
There are a couple of methods by which video images may be displayed or projected on the image display devices. It could either be through an interlaced scan or through a progressive scan.
Progressive scanning, which is also referred to as non-interlaced scanning, was initially known as "sequential scanning," is an electronic image display device stores, presents as well as transmits moving images in which all the lines of each frame are drawn in sequence.
An interlaced scan signal, on the other hand, is another way in which images are projected since the invention of the television, and are designed exclusively for the large Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) televisions. With the interlaced scanning method, a TV draws images in an alternating fashion. In order to display an image, the television sequentially draws all of the odd numbered lines from top to bottom and then proceeds to fill in the even lines. This process occurs at a rate of 30 frames per second, which means that the entire process only takes around 1/30 of a second. With the interlace program scanning method, the image quality of a video signal is improved with no extra bandwidth consumed.
Since more bandwidth means a more expensive as well as complex system, interlaced video reduces the signal bandwidth by a factor or two for a given line count then refresh the rate. As TV sets designed with an interlaced program scanning method are less expensive, consequently, it makes TV models such as these more popular than competing models requiring progressive program scanning method.
On the other hand, these types of TV models display images less desirable as the images interlaced devices projects are prone to distracting image artefacts. This also causes intentional blurring, flickering (also referred to as "interline twitter" and is produced by the image on the display screen that contains vertical detail and approaches the horizontal resolution of the video format).
All of these that are present in an interlaced program scanning method have been totally eliminated with the progressive program scanning method. Thus, a more vivid or rich image is displayed with this image projection method.
When selecting the most appropriate display device for your home theater, you need to consider the over-all quality that your device will provide.

Wall 1: shelves of all my "machines" :-) (Cricut, laminator, typewriter, etc)
Wall 2: My dog, for some odd reason, cries and whines if we try and put his crate anywhere besides my craft room. So I got creative and put a top on it and made some table/work space.
The business side of things.
Wall 3: My table space. Computer on the right and TV on the left.
Wall 4: All of my supplies organized into their labeled containers including (but not limited to. lol): yarn, projects in progress, fabric, gift wrapping supplies, craft books/magazine, paper, Cricut supplies, knick knacks, sewing supplies, etc.

Discussion in 'General Rugby Union' started by noikz, May 25, 2007.
That was a good, one very enjoyable.
But, be prepared for RBS to start shouting at the injustice of your blinkered view of football.
Top video.
As matt said, The football/kissball/wogball/soccer fanatics will in no time discover this thread and THE debate will begin.
Hehe, it's ok, the more they moan they more they love it. It will give him something to cheer him up after possibily the worst Kissball season on record. The most incredibly tedious FA Cup Final ever followed by the worst CL (EC) Final of all time. Classic stuff. :zzz:
Off to the pub to watch Oz v Wales with a nice cooked brekkie now. :bana:
What's the point...it's so blinkered and one eyed as to render it beneath all debate.
You know those idiot mtv xtreme sporters who go on about how their ridiculous minority event is more awesome & radical than the maintstream games. They are dickheads too.
I assume it'd be totally impossible to piece to together a video of rugby players doing lots and lots of long kicked clearances.
Mate, you've really got to lighten up and not take it so personally when we insult football.
And who's to say their extreme sports aren't better than mainsteam ones. It's an opinion.
Plus, you saying that is like saying Indie movies aren't as good as Hollywood movies. Arguable.
Just take it with a pinch of salt, that's all i'm saying.
What's the point...it's so blinkered and one eyed as to render it beneath all debate.

I love it! :cheers: :bana:
Well I'm sorry but that's just the sort of attitude that's going to make this place the world's most dull foum.
Desist with this pinko hippy talk immdediately. Is this what you want? :
Member A : I have this point of view
Member B : I fully resepct your view even though I disagree with it
Member A : I am gratified you respect my view...I also wholly support your right to disagree...after all we are all different unique individuals
Member B : Yes my friend....You are correct in that. Our points of view may differ but through mutual acknowldgement of these different weltenschaung our our subjective opinions can both flourish in harmony
Member A : Let's hug
Member B : I am literally sobbing tears of joy here
Haha, that was classic!
But seriously, I was swayed to think rugby was more exciting simply because of that dramatic music they used!!!!!!
On a serious note, have to agree that this years FA Cup Final and Champions League Finals were incredibly boring... but I dare anyone to say the Liverpool Final two years ago was boring as well!
Oh good, we're being mature about the discussion. Mate, i was just being polite, you know the forum will never go that way. I was simply telling you to lighten up somewhat. Ok?
*Matt shakes his head at how boring the argument is and couldn't care less about how RBS feels football is treated on this site.*
Football can learn from rugby in many ways
Lesson for football from rugby
Both are supposed to be gentlemen's games rugby shows this football doesn't e.g. diving
The fans in football **** me off so much with their offensive chanting ,riots and the lack respect for the oppostion side in forums try using AOL forums it's like talking to a Brick wall people actually go out of their way to try and wind up other supporters on other boards
Rugby v Kissball jajajajajajaja
the Football is the worse sport of the world
perhaps my favourite bit of the entire match!
Stamping, punching, gouging and spear tackles are the height of civilisation of course.
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/65MojXiv1mA"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/65MojXiv1mA" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
I'm not getting all bolshy about this...I'm just providing a service. This way I point out the obvious nonsensical nature of your argument on here and you people don't make tits of yourselves by repeating your ill thought-out pontifications out in the real world.
rugby is a very full contact sport though. Footballers shouldn't get themselves into the situation of a punch up. You've just highlighted one player and one moment. I could easily do the same.
god that does my head in. It's ruined the game.
Still, you'd agree that stamping on someones face is a tad ungentlemanly?
Please do...not just for the sake of this arguement, I genuinely love examples of true corinthian sportsmanship like that. I was at that game....it was amazing as the moment of realisation hit everyone. Remember di Canio wasn't exactly a saint.
I've seen many a rugby game ruined by constant snidey infringements at the ruck. It's just that rugby has long since come to terms with it's gamesmanship.
infringments at the ruck is part of the game. Its playing on the borderline level to win. Diving is completeley different. Its blatent lying - the ruck is such a tricky area that even the best back rowers winning the ball are going to get blown up. And slowing the ball is a tactic. Diving is disgusting and is the height of bad sportsmanship. In diving you're getting the opposition man in trouble and that's cowardly. At least when you infringe in the ruck you can get yourself raked as a punishment. Divers get rewarded with a free kick.
As for stamping on peoplese faces - that's just a friendly hello.
And instances off the top of my head. Colin Charvis was knocked out by a tackle from Jerry Colins and Umaga left the defensive line went straight for Chharvis to clear his air way. Erm there was a scrum from a game and i don't remeber who was playing but the player in the front row shouted neck as he felt it go and the opposition front row stopped immediatley. And the very fact that every week us players go out to hurt the opposition (legally) on the field and on the scoreboard and dominate them, get into spur of the moment punch ups but at the end of the game it stays on the feild and we look each other in the eye and shake hands. None of this storming off in football (which is probably linked to the diving)
It's a good job it's a free service else we'd be asking for a refund.

SP Crater
The cinder cone volcano with a less than complimentary name.
SP Crater gets overlooked for a few reasons- the neighboring volcano, Sunset Crater, is a bit more picturesque with its forest setting, and has national park status. SP Crater is off by itself on private ranchland, but the landowners permit visitors to check out this perfect example of a cinder cone and its nearly six-mile lava flow.
The crater was eloquently named by 1880s rancher and landowner of the cinder cone C.J Babbit, after what he felt the view from the top resembled the most- a shit pot. Unlike Sunset Crater, you can climb to the top of SP Crater, and if you're sure-footed, you can even drop down inside of it.
Volcanologists estimate SP Crater is 65,000 years old.

My move to my first full-time parish at Tilton coincided with an important national decision—the Supreme Court ruling in Roe vs. Wade. Legal abortion, formerly restricted to a few states and people of wealth, was then available through qualified medical facilities to every first and second trimester pregnant woman at relatively low cost. Two local obstetrician-gynecologists and workers in the county health department realized that they had a challenge on their hands. Who would provide counseling to the many women who now had a choice that they did not have previously?
The doctors and health workers did not feel ready or able to counsel at length with women who were facing new and legal options for which they had not prepared. The two OB-GYNE doctors disagreed between themselves about the morality of the new option. The health workers had mixed feelings. They turned to local ministers, asking for ministers and other counselors who were concerned to join in providing free, confidential, and non-directive counseling to women who desired it. Eight ministers and counselors responded.
The sticking point was the need to be non-directive, not to tell women what to do, not to impose a religious position, but to be willing to listen to different circumstances and needs and religious positions, explore feelings, provide information that was as objective as possible, and let women make their own final decisions. We all faced a steep learning curve, gathering information on all options that were available, including the medical facilities that provided abortions, procedures used, and costs involved, as well as the ethical and psychological considerations that women and their partners and families might face, whichever decision they made. Available resources for supporting a new child or adoption were necessary as well. Before we began, we developed a standard list of themes that would be a part of each session, and we revised it regularly.
The Problem Pregnancy Counseling Service continued for the next seven years. The counselors met together regularly to compare and enhance what we were learning, to recruit and replace counselors, and to support one another in emotional struggles. Not everyone of the original group could maintain the standards that we had imposed on ourselves, nor did new volunteers find them easy. At the end of that time, the polarization of abortion as an issue had grown to make non-directive counseling sound like 'permissive' or 'encouraging' to outsiders, so the counseling pool had shrunk and recruitment of new counselors became politicized. Women and doctors were more familiar with their own options as people had made their separate decisions and shared them with others. Fewer women were asking for counseling. We disbanded.
What had we learned as counselors? There was no standard case of a woman coming for counseling. Women's motivations and circumstances varied enormously, and our awareness of heart-wrenching circumstances and difficult decisions expanded. Male partners were seldom available for support. We varied among ourselves in our ability to empathize or offer emotional support to those who came to us. We also had to deal with our own grief and depend on others for support. The politics of the issue made abortion more accessible to some and more difficult for many. What had long been an illegal underground activity remained part of an emotionally charged secret, as 'underground' as ever, although usually without the dire medical consequences of local illegal abortions.
None of us were immune to the personal threats that were directed at us from abortion absolutists. Yet all of us had people come to us later thanking us for help in their difficult times. We would face the same issues again wherever we were, but not with the frequency or intensity of those seven years.

An energy method given by Quinnfor determining the dynamic characteristics of planar mechanisms under the action of displacement-related forces is extended to spatial linkages. These linkages may, in addition, be subjected to time-related forces or to velocity-related damping forces. Recently developed matrix methods are used in the linkage analysis resulting in a method well suited to digital computation.

Irish Pub Joke
A drunk was sitting at a bar when a woman stood behind him and raised her arm really high to get the bartender's attention. The drunk saw that she had very hairy armpits.
The drunk yelled at the bartender, "Get the ballerina a drink!" She got her drink and went away. Later, she returned and raised her arm again. The drunk saw her and yelled to the bartender, "Get the ballerina another drink!" She got her drink and went away again.
The bartender asked the drunk how he knew she was a ballerina when she was a stranger and had never been in the bar before.
The drunk replied, "She's got to be a ballerina if she can lift her leg that high."

U.S. considers ending protections for northwest Montana grizzly bears
By MATTHEW BROWN
Associated Press
BILLINGS, Mont. — On the heels of lifting protections for Yellowstone-area grizzly bears, the U.S. government is considering the same action for bruins in northwestern Montana, home to the largest group of grizzlies in the Lower 48, federal officials said Friday.
Hunters and trappers widely exterminated grizzlies across much of the U.S. early last century. But after being granted threatened species protections in 1975, the animals have made a dramatic comeback around Yellowstone and a second area centered on Glacier National Park, known as the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem.
The mountainous ecosystem along the Canadian border has about 1,000 bears. The population has more than doubled since 1993, and biologists say the bears now occupy at least 22,000 square miles.
State Rep. Bradley Hamlett said lifting federal protections would allow Montana to hold "extremely limited" grizzly hunts. That could help deter run-ins between bears and humans that have become more common as the animals spread onto the plains east of Glacier, he said.
A grizzly bear earlier this month killed 10 calves east of the park near the small town of Dupuyer. On Sunday a grizzly was shot and killed by a man after it attacked his adult son while the pair was hunting black bears west of Kalispell.
"I'm all for grizzly bears, but everybody's got to realize they were a plains animal," said Hamlett, a Democrat from Great Falls. "You don't want to shoot them all and get rid of them. But the bears will adjust and there won't be as many bad encounters."
By year's end, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service expects to release details on criteria it will use to determine if the Northern Continental Divide population has enough habitat to protect it from the threat of extinction, U.S. Fish and Wildlife spokesman Steve Segin said.

Assembly roundup
In its meeting December 13, the City and Borough Assembly approved issuance of a new sewer revenue bond.
Amounting to $91,000, the 40-year bond will finance a portion of the cost to acquire, construct and install additions to two of the borough's main sewer pump stations. The work includes new piping and control systems for the stations, which together service about 80 percent of the city's waste.
As of this month, Public Works estimated the city's sewer system has treated 112,994,910 gallons of wastewater, while maintaining 1.5 employees at the treatment plant. The system maintains 1...

(Btw: yes I am 21 and have a hamster. You're just jealous!)
Now, her name is Boo and she's a Syrian Hamster. I got her in February when my girlfriend convinced me it was a good idea - so she's just gone 8 months old. Doesn't seem too old but seen as she only has a life expectancy of two years she's nearly halfway! Maybe that's why she keeps escaping, it's a midlife crisis!!
She's quite an odd looking little hamster as she is all black, so she looks like a rat just with a short tail. She got her name because of her colour - she looks like a shadow and obviously she can jump out of the shadows and scare everyone! Boo!
This has lead onto a multitude of nicknames for her including:
- boo boo
- boo boo mouse
- mouse baby
- rat baby
And because of today - boodini - after the great escape artist himself, Houdini.
Trying to catch her once she has escaped is also extremely difficult! If you're here for tips then I'm afraid you're in for some bad news! Basically all you can do is look behind and under everything until you see the cheeky escapee! The first time she was under my housemate's bed and the second time she was under a different housemate's desk! Who knows where she will be next time!
Anyway, as a photo subject she is extremely difficult to capture. As she moves around so much and is CONSTANTLY sniffing everything, trying to get her in focus is extremely difficult. She does however take good pictures as her jet black fur with bright colours looks really awesome - especially the yellow of her cage!
So, I whacked up my shutter speed to give me afighting chance of capturing her before she moved and gave it a go! Here are the results!

Conspiracies, Conspiracy Theories, and Conspiracy Theorists
Everybody has secrets. We all have aspects of our lives that we don't want others to know about. The problem with secrets is that they are only secret when they are kept secret, and there is sometimes a temptation to share the secret with someone. When we tell our secrets to someone, we ask that person to become part of a conspiracy and not share the secrets with anyone else. If a conspiracy is defined this simply, there are many millions of conspiracies on the planet at any given time. The fundamental problem with secrets and conspiracies is that they are undermined by the most common human activities: story-telling and gossip. A storyteller is granted additional credence if the story reveals a secret. And the more people that know a secret, the more likely it is that someone will reveal the secret to someone who should not know the secret. So most conspiracies unravel because of the human love of gossip.
However conspiracy theorists do not believe that secrets are hard to keep. Conspiracy theorists are those who passionately theorize that successful long term conspiracies exist. A conspiracy theory presents 'facts' that explain how and why the conspiracy exists. These presumed conspiracies are not just ordinary secrets; they involve plans to engage in some major immoral, unethical, illegal sequence of behaviors that will harm others. Conspiracy theorists view conspirators as different from the rest of us. According to conspiracy theorists, conspirators do not succumb to the weakness of gossip or doubt. They can keep secrets forever, and therefore conspiracies can go on forever. Theorists further believe that the conspirators weave elaborate lies about their evil goals and their complicated plans, and that everyone else is gullible enough to believe these lies, except the theorists themselves, of course.
Conspiracy theories can be dangerous. Conspiracy theories can easily become propaganda (lies) in the hands of the unscrupulous. The world's oldest conspiracy theory concerns the Elders of Zion. According to this theory there is a hidden group of Jewish elders who are secretly and successfully extending their control over all aspects of human life. This theory has been a building block of anti-Semitism in Czarist and Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany, many Arab countries, and various extremist hate groups at both ends of the political spectrum. Another dangerous conspiracy theory purports that the 9/11 attacks were an inside job perpetrated by various United States government agencies. Polling indicates that forty percent of Americans believe this theory!
Why do people believe in conspiracy theories? First, we humans have cognitive biases that make believing in conspiracy theories easy. We have a tendency to see patterns where none exist, and we interpret new information and recall old information in ways that confirm our already-held expectations and beliefs. Second, conspiracy theorists have strong animosity toward the institutions that dominate our culture, such as corporations, universities, the government, the media and the military. And they tend to feel that they have very little personal control over their own lives; this combination creates psychological vulnerability and paranoia. Research conducted over the last several decades indicates rising American anxiety about the increasing lack of control in their lives. In essence conspiracy theories allow people to blame their less-than-optimal personal circumstances on mysterious powerful secret groups.
And now, at a time when the Internet encourages fake news and high speed rumor spreading, we have a conspiracy theorist President. Having a President who believes in conspiracy theories will unfortunately encourage more Americans to believe in conspiracy theories. The timing of this could not be worse. Americans need to have faith in our basic institutions, which means believing that the people who run and staff these institutions are not conspirators, but simply imperfect humans trying to do their best to serve their constituents and the public.

With a pair of new heavy-duty charging stations, Tesla Motors has cemented its affection for Oregon and Washington drivers.
Tesla has installed two more "superchargers" between Portland and Vancouver, B.C. The strategy "enables (Tesla's) Model S drivers to easily travel for free, forever" between the two cities.
The superchargers are located in Centralia and Burlington, Wash. Tesla will unveil the units on Thursday.
The Centralia supercharger is located between the Totes Factory store and Dress Barn on Lum Road. It will be open 24 hours a day and feature 10 charging stalls.
Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has 14 charging stations in the U.S. The chargers provide 120 kilowatts of power and can offer three hours worth of driving charges in about 20 minutes.
Patrick Jones, a Tesla spokesman, said the company plans to add superchargers in Oregon but has yet to officially announce the locations. The company offers eight superchargers in California, one in central Illinois and three along the eastern seaboard.

Brighter by the day
Today may be the shortest day of the year but to me it has seemed interminable.
Esteban is ill and the weather is crappy, so I've spent most of my day in the apartment. And in doing so I've learned three valuable lessons: (1) cable TV sucks; (2) beer tastes better chilled; and (3) refried beans are not actually food. (Though they'd make an excellent industrial adhesive, I think.) So many things about our culture suddenly make sense.
On the bright side, I did get out for a lovely walk this morning.
Today, I left the highway for a bit of scrambling among the rocks. Along the way I met two overheated English setters, one avid hunter, a covey of quail, and about 3,000 scrubby, thorny bushes.
I loved watching the weather blow across the valley. At first I was sure I'd get drenched, but the skies never opened. So I spent an hour or two enjoying the wonderful changeability of the light.
I also wondered how some of the red rock formations had gotten their names. Bell Rock seems pretty logical:
Coffeepot Rock? Not so much.
I also came up with a few names of my own. I dubbed this formation "Bear Market Rock:"
… and this one, I called "Old Sentinel."
How long has he been sitting there, I wonder, gazing toward the horizon? If only rocks could talk …
On the way home, I paused at one of the roundabouts to watch the traffic. Esteban told me yesterday that the cops love them: Not only do the roundabouts reduce accidents, but they're also an excellent drunk-driver trap. Apparently more than one inebriated motorist has been found driving endlessly in circles, unable to figure out how to exit. Yowser.
Well, that pretty much sums up the day.
Tomorrow is supposed to bring more rain — but also another minute or two of sunlight. Can I get a hallelujah for the latter?
Happy winter solstice.

Sunday morning shore dive at North Coogee Marina
written by Matthias Liffers – Perth Scuba PADI Dive Master
The forecast was looking pretty grim as I got my gear together for the dive. Thankfully, when we got to North Coogee Marina, the worst of the weather was just a few drops on the windscreen. The water was mostly flat and was only a little choppy due to a slight breeze.
We buddied up, kitted up, did our checks and the seven of us walked into the water to follow the artificial rock wall. We spotted a few different fish, including crested morwongs, Woodward's pomfrets and even a little blennie sticking its head out of its hidey hole. Many of the rocks had small pink sea cucumbers clustered at the top, and there was even a single seahorse with its tail wrapped around a sponge.
Towards the very end of the dive, I took a photo of what I took to be an uncharacteristically diurnal crustacean. On closer inspection, however, I was disappointed to find it was just a lure leftover from somebody's fishing expedition.

Crowd Protection
Major sporting, cultural and political events can attract large crowds to specific locations, making them easy targets for criminal and terrorist attacks. Maintaining high-level security nowadays is a prerogative. Passive protection against explosive blasts or gunshots can be provided by resistant panels and barriers while specialized radar systems can detect unauthorized Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and locate the source of small arms fire. Law enforcement and security agencies can be further aided by the use of UAVs to monitor large areas.

HAGERSTOWN - Near the end of a recent radio program that he was hosting, a caller asked Will Kauffman, "Do I know you?"
The caller recognized Kauffman from his more than 30 years working at area radio stations.
Kauffman is school communications/web coordinator for Washington County Public Schools and hosts a monthly radio show on WJEJ 1240 AM called "Lunchtime Live."
The interview program runs nearly 30 minutes and starts at 1:06 p.m. on the third Thursday of the month.
"I have the ability to do what I did before and tie it to my current employer," Kauffman said.
The first "Lunchtime Live" aired in early 2004, and Kauffman's first guest was Superintendent Elizabeth Morgan.
Guests during the most recent broadcast, including Assistant Superintendent for School Operations Boyd Michael, discussed new school construction and redistricting.
"The guest list is endless," Kauffman said.
"Lunchtime Live" covers tough topics by going straight to the source, and accomplishments of staff and students are highlighted on the program, Kauffman said.

Hey Cindy,
You sure are being a trooper!!! I am proud of your attitude to fight on. The ringing in the ears could be any of the things you have mentioned. I have never had that but I have heard that it can make you just crazy!!! I am sensitive to noise so I can imagine the nightmare it would be to be unable to escape that. I hope you have a great visit with your neuro. Be aggresive about the leg pain. We have a member on here that was convinced her leg pain was from the rebif itself. Ask if that is a side effect.
The good news is you had some good days there. Let's hope you get to that place again. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Gretchen,
I am also convinced the leg pain I have and some of the weakness is due to the Rebif. I had leg burn and some weakness a couple of times a year which now we realize was a flare but this is an ache that is totally different. A lot of this has to due with the medication. Hopefully it will get better with time. Some of it has but a bad day still sucks! Thanks for all the encouragement and support. Maybe that member will post and let me know how rebif makes them feel. Thanks again.

The Best Gaia Online Sweaters
I have a confession. I have an unhealthy relationship with - sweaters. Yes, I just love sweaters! In any color or cut, I think sweaters look dashing on anyone. Whether you are young or old, a sweater is a classic top that looks great. Now, it never fails that the clothing I like in real life becomes something I want for my avatar on Gaia Online. So I have built up a pretty nice sweater collection! If you are like me and want all the best Gaia Online sweaters for your avatar, check these options out.
14th Street
This item is actually inspired by the Nightmare on Elm Street movies, so it doesn't just have a sweater. It also has some Freddy Krueger claws and a hat! But the sweater is the gem of this item, with cute stripes. It will go with any casual outfit!
Blood Wine Turtleneck Sweater
This is my favorite one of these turtleneck sweaters. I love the deep purple color. The same style also comes in charcoal, dark slate, and dark umber. I like these sweaters because they are a little formal and dramatic.
Blu Cotton Stripe Sweater
This is just a basic striped sweater! I like the blue stripes best, but you can also get one with yellow stripes or one with orange stripes. These are cheap in the gold stores and they are great for any avatar outfit.
Brown Argyle Sweater
I love argyle! So obviously I love this sweater! The brown one is my favorite, but you can also get this sweater in blue, black, green, and red. You can get these sweaters at the H.R. Wesley shop.
Brown Longsleeve Baggy Shirt
Ok, this one doesn't say sweater but it sure looks like one! There are a few of these baggy tops available. I like the brown, but you can also get it in 'moss' and 'rust' colors. It's a pretty basic top that you can get for cheap.
Burnt Umber Phat Sweater
Another easily purchased sweater. This one is available at Gambino Outfitters and it comes in this color, burnt umber, or dark green or dark red. It's a nice, oversized sweater that looks pretty casual. I love it with a pair of jeans!
This is a special evolving item that just happens to have a super cute sweater! The item is based on stuff like webs from spiders to create some really cool items. This sweater is the color of webs and is it pretty preppy.
The Director
This item takes its look from a movie director. There are a few different avatar option in it, but the sweater is obviously the best one. It is a tight fitting sweater complete with a sheer scarf. Very chic!
Doufu Hua
This very expensive item has a super cute oversized sweater. It's alternate color version, Chilled Doufu Hua, also has this sweater. While the sweater is what we are looking at here, the item also has hair, glasses, and more.
Frosted Affection
More argyle, yay! This sweater is found with a bunch of other options. This item is super cute and also has earmuffs, a scarf, a coat, and more. It's pretty much perfect for making a bundled up avatar!
Jack'd Sweater 2k6
Hooray, a Halloween sweater! I love that it is not over the top, like a lot of the Jack series items. This one is just perfect and looks so comfortable. You can find it in the marketplace if someone is selling it, since it was released in the 2006 event.
Jittery Jill
I love this sweater! It is a little baggy and the bright colors are so great. Technically, it's label as 'blouse' but it is clearly a sweater. This item has other stuff too, including cute hairpiece and a short skirt.
Jumper Collection
This item is so great because it is literally just a collection of sweaters! You get five different styles, including this preppy one which I love. You also get some other poses, including a jar of jam, a mess of sweaters, and jam all over your face.
Junior Professor
This is such a bright and bubble sweater, I love it! This item also includes a bag, pants, bangs, and a hat. It's got a really nice color scheme of orange and brown, but I think it's worth it for the sweater alone.
Lite Rainbow
I love this long sweater! The white is really nice, and the touch of color gives it something unique. This rainbow themed item also comes with a hat and a bag, so you don't just get one avatar option.
Loli Pop
I love the off-the-shoulder look of this pink sweater. This item is sweet as candy and also has a lollipop, shorts, shoes, and a hairstyle for your avatar. It's pretty unique, so this one is worth the gold!
This item is all about super cute pandas! It comes with a lot more than just this sweater, too. You'll get some eye mods, hair, a belt, pants, dresses and tops, undergarments, and more! It's super versatile and of course the sweater is really unique.
Polar Tear
I love this one! The colors are so cute and they remind me of winter with family. This item has a lot more too, including hair, a scarf, boots, a background for your avatar, and more. It's a nice winter item.
Red Classroom Sweater Vest
This is a stand-alone sweater, and it's very cute. It looks like it has a hood attached to it. You can get it in other colors too, including blue and tan (which is totally yellow). It's affordable and easily acquired.
Swanky Gent
This item has a lot of different stuff for guy avatars, but the sweater looks great on anyone. It also has a really cute scarf. It has an awesome hat, pants, hair, and a coat. Of course, anyone can use the item!
Ted & Dusky
I like this plain, gray sweater. It has extra long sleeves and looks very comfortable! The item also comes with a few other things, including a hood, a teddy bear, and matching pants.
Ugly Orphan Sweater
No, this isn't ugly! It's so cute and looks well-loved! I think it's great for a casual avatar, but even this ratty sweater will cost you. It was only available though a special event back in 2007.
Winter Snow Flake Sweater
There are a few different options in the "Snow Sweater" category. There are three different colors - Snow Flake is white, Wind Snow is blue, and Green Snow is, well, green. I like the white one best, it looks fresh and clean.
Do you wear sweaters in the wintertime?

We live in a very hectic world where we are pretty much busy 24/7. Plus with exams only a couple of months away (well for me anyway) you can soon be left feeling extremely stressed and tired out.
Here are some tips to help reduce stress, I hope you find them useful.
Organisation: If you have lots of different things to do which come with deadlines this can soon leave you panicking about what to do first. Prioritize, make to do lists, organize what needs to be done. This allows you to set goals and prioritize what needs doing first, making all the things you need to do more manageable.
Exercise: This can be one of the best ways to reduce stress! There are lots of different ways to exercise, such as: Running, jogging, dancing, doing a workout ect. Not only relaxes you but it helps to take your mind off things, plus doing a workout can leave you feeling great afterwards.
Relaxing: Another really simple and effective way at reducing stress. Having me time and looking after yourself really does help! There are hundreds of ways to relax such as: Having a pamper night, reading a book, watching your favourite TV series ect.
Meditating: Meditating helps to unwind and relax your mind, it's leaves you feeling calmer. It doesn't have to be putting yourself in fancy yoga positions. One of my favourite ways to to meditate is by doing the one minute meditation (shout out to my ethics teacher for teaching me this) as 1 minute is sometimes all you need to feel more relaxed. Here is the link if you fancy trying it out yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6eFFCi12v8
Listen to music: Listening to music helps to blot out everything that's going on and it allows you to concentrate on the lyrics. I always find songs that have really uplifting/upbeat tune always help to perk me up.
Those are my tips on how to reduce stress! What do you do to reduce stress?

Updated 10:18 p.m. June 15 to show that Jermane Johnson Sr. was at home in St. Louis, not on a bus to Kansas City, on the day that his son died.
The casket is no bigger than a dresser drawer. The boy inside, Jermane Le Elliott Johnson Jr., lies peacefully even as the world unravels for those around him. His hair is braided and he wears an uncreased argyle sweater with alternating navy blue and baby blue diamonds over a white tee shirt. Tucked beside his left arm is a mini foam football.
A woman walks up to the casket, holding the hand of a small girl.
"He's a baby," says the girl.
"Yes he is," says the woman.
The woman purses her lips and shakes her head then walks back down the center aisle with the girl, past a sobbing older lady and a man with his head in his hands.
Nearly 150 sad faces pack the Williams-James Mortuary, which is roughly the size of a large studio apartment, to mourn perhaps the most unlikely death in America's most dangerous city. The boy in the casket, on this earth less than twenty months, was drowned in a bathtub June 4. Police say the girl who killed him was hardly bigger than the wide-eyed little girl at his memorial service last night -- that his five-year-old cousin intentionally held him under water because he "cried too much." The boy's mother, Nicole Curry, insists it was an accident.
The man with his head in his hands is Jermane Johnson Sr. He was at home in St. Louis when he received the most devastating phone call a father can imagine.
To the right of the casket stands a photo collage of the boy. Little Jermane the newborn, with chubby cheeks and pillowy nose. Little Jermane with a joyful toothless grin. Little Jermane staring at the world with big soulful brown eyes.
Many in the mortuary wear printed tee shirts bearing images of the boy. "RIP My Little Angel, Paky... Love Always." His loved ones called him Paky.
An old woman in a gray dress looks down at the little boy in the casket. Her back is to the room, but the way her shoulders tremble, it is clear she is crying. She bends down gingerly and kisses the boy on the forehead. A large man in an "RIP My Little Angel" shirt embraces the woman and she buries her head in his chest.
"You do everything right and you're still in the storm!" shouts the pastor, the Reverend Chaz T. Jaquess.
"Amen!" respond the mourners.
The women in the front row hug each other. Wiping their tears on each other's shoulders.
"Brother Jermane wasn't with us for very long," says the pastor. "But I know he is in Heaven."
"Amen!" respond the mourners.
"We will meet him and all the other loved ones we have lost there," says the pastor.
"Amen!" respond the mourners.
The memorial service ends, and many of the mourners line up to console the boy's family in front of the small white casket. The line stretches to the back of the room. Some of the children, visibly restless throughout the service, scurry outside. They run and giggle in the grass by the building's parking lot, chasing each other through the legs of their parents.

I start each weekday morning by scanning my e-mail and listening to my phone messages.
This is a voice mail that greeted me Thursday morning:
"Mr. Headlee, no wonder they call your paper the Republican paper. The lieutenant governor comes to Hagerstown to speak to 400 people. She's on the third page and you have a man chasing a bull and a kid winning a spelling bee on the front page. You know, people say because you are the only paper in town we have to buy it if we want any kind of news, which is usually not always valid, and if we had another paper you'd be down the drain."
My reaction to comments like this and from other readers who get angry at times with our newspaper is straightforward: I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend your right to say it.

The ASB Bank looks set to launch Internet banking later this month, using full 128-bit encryption sourced from Europe.
The bank is still keeping tight-lipped about the details, but says the encryption has come from a Swiss company.
Further details will be announced when the Internet banking service is actually launched.
The service will be a full transactional service, akin to what customers can now do with telephone banking.
The ASB looked at both home-grown products and overseas technology from the UK and Europe when deciding on encryption.
During that time both Microsoft and Netscape Communications received permission from the US government to export software that includes 128-bit encryption technology to banks worldwide for protection of online financial transactions.
The ASB says that announcement doesn't affect its plans.
In its Internet banking pilot, involving several hundred staff members, it has used the Edify Electronic Workforce system distributed by Parkers' Edge.
Parkers' Edge has, with Cardinal Networks, linked the ASB Web page to the bank's Linc software running on a legacy mainframe Unisys host. The bank cannot yet say what it will be using when it officially kicks off the service.
Eagle Technology announced recently that it would use 128-bit encryption for its Superstore Web site, as part of a pilot with the ASB Bank.
Another on-line shopping service, the Great New Zealand Shopping Mall, which provides online grocery shopping to Aucklanders, uses a direct debit system rather than online credit card payments.
However, Andrew Faris of Ad Pacifica, which developed the Great New Zealand Shopping Mall system, says the mall is likely to be an early adopter of the latest encryption technology but wants to ensure it's thoroughly tested and robust first.
He says the direct debit system is working well, but online credit card payments will be considered as an option in future.
Cybermall coordinator Mark Stevens says Cybermall uses an Apache SSL secure server with 40-bit encryption. He says Cybermall has a number of projects underway which will require a higher level of security and which will utilise the latest encryption technology. However, it is happy with the level of encryption it has at the moment.
Stevens says thousands of dollars are spent online each month and there have been no problems.
If people feel uncomfortable about using their credit card online, they can always fax an order.

Cardigan for Tiny Teddy: January 9th to 12th.
I made one of my passwords something to do with knitting this week—and spelled it wrong. Anyone want to play scrabble with me this week?
Knitting is meditative. So I have been thinking about this Osho thing. I am not sure I really buy 'transcendence'. I wanted the short version of why one would do these one hundred and twelve meditations, and so I asked V—— for the answer. He told me that it is so that we can realise that we are all one—a wave on the ocean is not separate from the ocean. He also told me that it means not coming back and having to do this all again. Okay, so I have two issues with those theories. One: I don't know if I really want to be one with all the people that I talk to (over the phone), even though I do understand that an acceptance of them may work better for me in the long run (where clashing doesn't). And, two: I won't know if I do or don't come back in the next life so why does it matter. All in all though, knitting certainly is giving me room for thinking. This weeks technique (and I'm paraphrasing from now on) is all about breathing again—to 'watch the fusion point of two breaths'. This is similar to the first meditation in that it speaks about the gap between the in and out breaths, but it is more about place. 'Civilization, education and morality' Osho says, have caused us to breath shallowly and in our chests; if we breath deeply instead, like children, into our abdomens, then that point of change in breaths touches our 'center' and in this way we know where our center is. It seems an egg and a chicken thing where not touching our center means we are not total (total in all our emotions, anger, love, whatever, and so completely open and completely vulnerable) and so we are in control. We don't want to do this because we are afraid—afraid to be so vulnerable and afraid because society doesn't allow for the way of life such vulnerability allows. If we can become aware of the breaths' fusion, we become aware of our center and access the cosmic energy. Simple. It's the path to enlightenment.
Teddy's cardigan is Bella Baby 'Sugar' pure wool in a creamy colour with pink, lilac and hot pink splotches. Teddy has no issues wearing pink.
This item is available for buying, bartering or if you can just convince me undoubtedly that you need to have it.
