Nathan Dean and the Damn Band Interview
We had the pleasure of hosting Nathan Dean & The Damn Band for our New Years Eve show last year, which was a really fun time! These guys have been playing at the Rose for years and always put on a roaring good time, so we decided to ask them a few questions to get to know the band a little better.
Tell us about the NYE show at the Rose. How did you enjoy the night and what was your favorite part of the show?
It was our first time playing at The Rose for NYE and the crowd did not disappoint! We had a blast from start to finish and when the clock struck midnight it was fun watching the mad dash for cash from the stage.
You've played at the Rose many times before. When was your first show with us?
We first started playing at the Grizzly Rose in June of 2008.
How did you guys all meet and start playing music together?
I met Bill on a Nashville craigslist ad when I was looking for a drummer to go on the road full time back in 2008. I met Jason and Nick on the road. They were both playing in other bands at the time. Over the years lineups and situations changed for those bands so I was able to get them to come and play with me.
Who are your top 3 favorite country artists out there at the moment
(besides yourselves)?
- Stoney Larue
- Eric Church
- Randy Rogers
What about other genres? Do you guys listen to other genres of music,
and if so who are some of your favorites?
We all listen to pretty much every type of music. Everything from Pink Floyd to Motley Crue to the Gaithers to Snoop Dogg.
If you had to pick a 'favorite show you ever played' whether it was when you were just starting out or if it was recently, is there a specific one that sticks out?
One of my favorites was opening for Diamond Rio when I first started in a theatre in AZ. But, more recently the shows when we opened for Cody Johnson, Randy Rogers and David Nail at the Rose were all incredible nights.
Which song are you most proud of that you've written?
I'm proud of most all of the songs that I've written. I don't think I could pick just one. I could narrow it down to 'Lonely Bed' from the Addicted to a Good Time Album. And 'From Me to You' that will be on our upcoming album.
When you guys aren't touring the country playing music, what do you like to do?
When aren't we touring the country playing music? LOL… A couple of us like to golf. We also like hiking and other outdoor activities.
What's the best part about being a musician?
I think the best part is getting to do what you love and seeing people enjoy listening to your music.
What is the most difficult part about being a musician?
Being on the road for long stretches at a time is probably the most difficult.

Fire alarms should not be allowed to go off at 5.30 in the morning when it's below zero outside....
Update 10.30am: Oh, it's another fire alarm.
Update 11.15am: And another.
Update 11.40am: And another. One of the sensors is faulty. Oh, FFS.
Bright feathers
I should be happy, out on the dancefloor,
I should be having fun with the throng,
I love this feeling, I love this music,
but tonight something just feels wrong.
Dancing usually seems a graceful thing,
A natural way to be myself,
I make love to the music, I don't need you to like it
I'll do what I want and to hell with the rest
But I suddenly find my perspective has shifted,
I'm up in the air and I'm watching the dance,
It all becomes an absurd mating ritual,
Everybody fighting for a good mating chance
Frantic gyrations, desperate for attention,
Desperate for love, bright feathers on display,
Looking around for a little attention,
Hoping for a mate to take care of me.
I close my eyes but I hope that you're looking,
I close my heart but please beat down the door
I'm not doing the two-step so I don't need a partner
But please don't leave me all alone on the floor
Stop being dumb, learn to ignore me,
Ignore what I'm saying and court me like crazy
I need the attention, though I'll cast it aside,
I'll make this hard though I don't know why.
Don't give up like all the others,
Don't move on and leave me here,
I need you desperately inside me,
I'm hiding it behind my fear.
Stop listening to what I'm saying,
Take pity on my foolish needs
Look at my bright feathers flashing,
Come over and take care of me.
Can't Forgive You (Natural structure)
When did it go wrong?
When did we lose touch?
When did you become a man
I saw but couldn't touch?
When did you stop listening,
Was it before I stopped talking?
Why did we still drift apart
When we both saw it happening?
Did we want it to stop?
Was it out of control?
Some predetermined plot,
Part of some greater whole?
You thought you knew me,
But you only knew yourself.
Knew what you thought of me,
Listened to no one else.
So when I said what I said,
Things you didn't want to hear,
The things you weren't expecting,
You gave in to your fear.
You unleashed words that stung
That cut me to the bone,
That tore my confidence away
And left me all alone.
I feared the wounds were mortal,
But I only bled inside
We told each other "it's okay"
And both knew we had lied.
I don't know how I hurt you,
You only hurt yourself,
But I know how you hurt me
And can think of nothing else.
My wounds still bleed, they will not heal,
not with time or change of heart.
No amount of soothing speech
Will smooth away my scars.
I love you for the man you were,
And hate what you've become.
My best friend has turned enemy,
The man who killed his son.
I do not want to hate you,
I'm desperate to forgive,
But my pain will not let me,
You're guilty while you live.
Every time I see your face
I hear the echoes of your voice,
You're hoping for forgiveness
But you've left me with no choice

When I bought a house, there was a separate garage built at the start of the garden. Initially I used the garage to store several bikes and innumerable random bits of bike components, (things which tended to lie around unused for year after year – but without ever able to really throw them away, because in principle they are quite valuable.) Anyway, after much soul-searching, I decided to convert the garage into a meditation room – out went all the oily bikes and in came a new blue carpet and insulated walls.
It is a great boon to have a room just for meditation. An additional bonus is that it makes me go outside, even in coldest winter. Often I go out to meditate at night and see a beautiful moon, it is like on the way to your meditation, you gain a brief glimpse of the Higher worlds – something untainted by the problems of this world.
Staying indoors in the comfort of a centrally heated house, you miss nature's free show. In the morning meditation, it is a cold journey to walk into the below freezing garden and only slightly warmer meditation room but, as ample compensation, I often eye out of the corner of my eye birds flying through the garden or least chirping noisily in the background. Ideally, I would be fully concentrated on the meditation to not notice the birds, but the feeling of meditating with nature all around is a good experience. I have put up a seed feeder near the meditation window so that I can attract more birds into the garden. When I have finished a meditation, I look quietly to see if the birds are coming for the seeds – this informal bird-watching is a form of meditation in its own right.

Metagenics Ultracare for Kids Medical Food
Our son has allergies to milk and eggs, so Metagenics Ultracare for Kids Medical Food has been a big help to ensure that he's getting the nutrients he needs. We blend the product with organic rice milk, which he drinks at least twice a day. "Ultracare for Kids" is rice based, which has worked well for him. We tried a corn syrup solids based medical food and he seemed to have more digestion issues with corn syrup solids based medical food.

My son has allergies too and our doctor recommended UltraCare for Kids. But he's only 7 months old so I don't know if that's too young. How old was your son when you started him on UltaCare?
Hi vids,ReplyDelete
Our son started UltraCare after he was weaned, around 17 months of age. He is now 3 and no longer takes UltraCare, but mainly drinks Organic Coconut Milk. I'd suggest following your doctor recommendations or getting a second opinion if you're questioning the recommendations. For what it's worth, I'm just a dad with no medical training :)

Bayonetta is a very interesting game with a very interesting history. The franchise is made by Platinum Studios, who is known for their over-the-top action and style, and this series has that in spades. Plus, the game has one of the sassiest characters in video game history via Bayonetta herself. The game debuted on Xbox 360 and PS3, but when a sequel wasn't approved by them, the franchise made a surprising debut on the Nintendo Wii U, and now, with the confirmation of the third game coming to the Switch, the first two are coming to the Switch as well.
But, if you're in Japan, you have a special opportunity, as the Bayonetta Non-Stop Climax Edition will bundle the first two games together and throw in some really cool stuff. You'll get not only Switch cartridges for the first two games, but also, some unique collectible cards, a trio of stickers, and a steelbook to house them all in. But now, as NintendoSoup reports, the special edition will feature language support for Japanese, English, Spanish, French, German and Italian.
Why should you care? Well, it means you can import the game from Japan (or whatever other countries it comes out for, it won't be the US though) and be able to fully understand the game. Plus, you'll get all the cool stuff! Who wouldn't want that?
The Non-Stop Climax Edition, along with the standard edition, will arrive on February 17th for the Switch. As for Bayonetta 3, there's no definitive date set for it as of yet. However, we can make some educated guesses in regards to what Platinum Studios will do. Between the first and second games they changed the look of Bayonetta herself, as well as upped the ante in terms of who she fought, and given the very grim nature of the third game's teaser, things will likely get darker for her.

The relentless winter weather this year has certainly spawned discontent for many across America. Fortunately, the threat of more snow and ice will soon give way with the onset of spring and the arrival of warmer days. Many participants in capital markets have also found themselves mired in an extended spell of discontentment that has spanned for more than a decade. But unlike the steady changing of the seasons, the problems that continue to plague investment markets may persist in a seemingly endless winter that never turns to spring. And with this discontent comes risks that should continue to be evaluated carefully when managing investment portfolios today.

Editorial: Struggle for respect of human rights
Today, December 10, is the International Human Rights Day (IHRD). This is the day that the United Nations (UN) General Assembly in 1948 adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and ever since has been commemorated annually by countries the world over.
IHRD is commemorated to remind the States or governments that there is such a thing as human rights that the State, being the embodiment of the people, should recognize, promote, uphold and defend. The UN has established offices like the Office of the High Commissioner on Human Rights (OHCHR) to monitor the human rights situation and erring member States that have violated or have not recognized these human rights have not only been strongly criticized but have also faced sanctions.
Recently, the Philippines has been the center of concern by the UN and international human rights groups like Amnesty International because of the growing human rights violations (HRV): in President Rodrigo R. Duterte's (PRRD) war on drugs and his policy to silence the opposition – from those in the Senate to the professionals and to the poorest worker or farmer critical of PRRD's policies. These HRVs are expected to intensify now that PRRD has declared to end the Peace Talks with the National Democratic Front and ordered a crackdown on the Left and even including the legal left organizations.
IHRD is being commemorated to remind the people that these rights were not "given on a silver platter" but is a product of centuries of struggle by the exploited and oppressed masses. It took a French Revolution for civil liberties to be recognized. The current 8-hour work is a product of decades of protest by the workers. Women, until now, are still struggling for the respect of their rights to equal employment and equal pay, right to quality health care, etc. Even the right to suffrage which started as a white male privilege. It was only through the protest and assertion of "colored" people as well as the women that there is the present "democratic" exercise to choose as a people. The recognition of our present day rights is a product of hard struggle and sacrifice since the time of forefathers.
Presently, contradictions have intensified between the ruling class as represented by PRRD and the exploited masses of farmers, workers and professionals. Yet PRRD shows no sign of backing down from his anti-people policies like the imposed phaseout of jeepneys, the war on drugs, depriving many of their right to life and due process. etc. And the people are growing tired of PRRD's antics and start to verbalize their opposition. And true to fascist tendencies, the PRRD dispensation has consistently resorted to violence to silence opposition like what transpired on December 3 and 4 where suspected state security agents gun down 10 civilian activists (1 priest from north Luzon, 1 pastor from south Luzon and 8 Lumads from Mindanao).
PRRD may think history is on his side and overthrowing a dictator may take 3 decades or more, but the world over, history has proven more than once that a people united can never be defeated. The simple end result is the collective effort of exploited masses triumphs. # nordis.net

Kristen Stewart hosted Saturday Night Live over the weekend and appeared in one of SNL's famous recurring Totino's sketches.
The sketches satirise Super Bowl ads in which women are often forced into stereotypical wife roles.
SNL cast member Vanessa Bayer spruiks Totino's pizza rolls, speaking about how she needs to feed her "hungry guys" until Stewart's Sabine shows up and rocks her world.
The sketch's second half turns into a hilarious riff on European art-house lesbian romances, all while promoting the snack food.

In response to The Daily Post's weekly photo challenge: "Happy Place."
I am blessed to live in an area criss-crossed with public footpaths and bridleways.
Perfect for that week-end recharge.
Here are three instagram edited snapshots taken close to home. Not masterpieces but they sum up some of my happy places.
Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vertigo
In response to The Daily Post's weekly photo challenge: "ROY G. BIV."
Unlike my much beloved, I had not heard of Roy G Biv as a method of remembering the colours of the rainbow. In our school, we learned:
I'd enjoyed looking at several responses to this prompt and had been stuck for a suitable shot until this morning, when I saw the spines of the unwatched films in a Hitchcock box-set. Ok, so there's one extra shade in there, but I was struck by the coincidence of the seven other spine colours.
Like most of the films so far, to good to miss.
On The Prime Meridian, Day Three
On the ground, in the skies.
Amongst the plans we made before arriving here was a trip to the nearest fishmonger in Louth. We are not that far from Grimsby where fish is still landed on a daily basis and we hope that this will mean fine fresh produce. A simple view in these days of global food transportation, but we'll hold onto it for now. Besides, fresh fish doesn't travel that well. Unless it is in the sea.
On this basis we make an early dash to Louth to visit Igloo Foods.
As we wend our way through its higgledy piggledy town centre I get a sense of faded glory. Louth is a market town and thankfully has many apparently thriving independent shops, a diversity of trades – an active ironmongers is always a good sign to me. But the discount shops have moved in. Just here and there, not in great numbers. I wonder how it will look in five years time, or maybe only two.
There are a couple of characters about who, given a change from shell suit to Victorian street garb, would have been ne'er do wells in a Dickensian novel. The ambling youth later blocking our way, apparently innocently staring into a shop window (it was empty), then following us a little too close until I brave a sharp stare – I'm onto you – and stop him in him in his tracks, is a case in point.
Only when we reach the next corner do we realise how quiet that little side-street was. I ask Si if he saw the man with the roll-up sat on the steps near to where we encountered our temporary shadow. Despite this, I love this type of town. Narrow dysfunctional streets, not knowing where you are, a slightly shabby appearance being spruced up in random places, independent traders each with their own speciality, having to visit at least four shops for your weekly purchases, and recommendations of who might have exactly what you want.
I also favour this time of day, just before opening time. Blinds being raised, unloading of goods, shouted "hello"s and "nice day"s, butchers carving up and hanging meat carcasses, windows and pavements being washed down, savvy shoppers arriving early for the best cuts, the promise of a good day's trade.
We collect our fish, grab a quick cache, then revert to type and complete the shopping in the co-op supermarket. Sad really.
A quick drop off of provisions then onto Gunby Hall, a National Trust property with pretty gardens and a prettier cat called Committee, because she looks like she has been designed by one. Much like Min the cat back home. She lazily greets us whilst sunning herself on the path to the greenhouse.
We find that we do not tend to visit the houses of National Trust properties, but the gardens and woodland walks. The former gives me ideas for our more modest patch back home, and the latter allows us to stretch our legs in a tame environment, plus some ideas for the wilder (less maintained) part of our garden. Gunby has the added bonus of a church (sadly locked), with views over the fields.
Close to the estate, and still part of it, is Monksthorpe Chapel, which has what looks like a cess pit, but is in fact a disused outdoor baptistery. On our way there we pass the former site of RAF Spilsby, now featuring a poultry farm. Large sheds emit a familiar smell, pervasive and persistent. We are pleased to leave and head to a grass verge near Revesby to have our lunch.
Being in these parts means a trip to Coningsby, home of the RAF Typhoons. It's a sunny day and makes for good plane watching. Himself is pleased as we sit in the car park full of similar couples but mainly many solo males armed with tele-photo lenses galore.
Down the road is Tattershall village boasting a fine 15th century castle-keep. We have visited before, decline the audio tour and head straight for the ramparts.
It's a clear day and the views are splendid. Lincolnshire does not have the dramatic beauty that you find in Snowdonia or the Lake District, but, being reasonably flat, you get a real sense of space around you. The skies here are huge. Really huge.
Next to the castle and visitor centre is the Holy Trinity Collegiate Church. A fine building with intricate stone work and a wonderful east window.
We return to the cottage via another of our favourite spots, known to us as the Scenic Lay-by. It is on the blue stone ridge and its allows us to look over towards the cottage, just about.
Dinner is delicious. Halibut baked in lemon and pepper, accompanied by purple sprouting broccoli and seasonal Boston new potatoes.
We round the day off with an impromptu stroll partway along the Roman Road which passes though Tetford.
Splendid. Just splendid.
On The Prime Meridian, Day Two
Thoughts and Prayers
I woke early.
As with our previous holiday, I enjoy observing the quirks of cottage, like the motion sensitive lights in Anglesey which I had to activate by waving broccoli at them. Here it is the noisiest fridge I have ever come across. Not that I am a seasoned fridge expert. It is almost constantly bubbling and whirring away to itself. Hang on. It's just stopped. Like the death of the Martian call in Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds, the silence is unbearable.
On the way back from our top up shopping, the promise of a geocache leads us to the little Saxon church at Lusby. It is one of the joys of geocaching that many members place caches in interesting places. It is not all about the numbers. This being a case in point. Not finding the cache didn't matter. The church was a joy to visit.
There was a sign warning of ponies in the churchyard, but they were either elsewhere or very very tiny.
On a related note, it is Open Churches Weekend in West Lindsey. Somewhere we had driven past on previous holidays but not visited is St Mary's in Stow. The church pre-dates nearby Lincoln Cathedral, and boasts Viking graffiti, believed by some to be from the 12th century. Entering the church at the moment is like entering a building site, probably because it is one. The roof is undergoing repairs, costing in excess of £500,000.
Above the ceiling is a void with a floor of jagged stone edges. It is said that if you can find the right one, removing it will cause that segment of the ceiling to fall to the floor below.
It is a majestic building in comparison to the many little chapels and churches in the surrounding villages, second in grandeur possibly only to the cathedral itself. Lusby chapel would fit inside several times over and I would be inside that chapel.
We spent lunch in an elevated lay-by near RAF Scampton with some bikers, waiting for something that never happened. I can't tell you what it was, because it never graced us with its presence.
Later we make a random choice of b-road and we are presented with a turning signposted Wickenby Aerodrome and RAF memorial. Wickenby was a base for Lancasters in the second World War and a maintenance unit was based here long after. There is a small memorial, sadly devoid of commemorative panels (stolen) and statue (stored in fear of theft). It declares the price paid for our freedom. A freedom that some have chosen to use to deface the memory of the fallen.
Just inside the aerodrome perimeter is a memorial walk. Trees planted and dedicated to individuals and or crews. It is very moving. The words "an uncle never known" are too painful for me to consider dry-eyed.
We continue our walk to the end of one runway and pause a while.
We are again a little early to return, and head for afternoon coffee in a favourite lay-by near Burgh On Bain. Last time we visited, Si grabbed the cache here before I had got the car door open. We check that it is still present before we leave.
Before dinner, we stroll along the lane and grab a couple of caches, taking in the gentle beauty surrounding us.
It's a pleasant end to a thoughtful day.

The controversial data privacy agreement between the European Union and the US - settled finally at April's EU/US summit in Lisbon - has now received approval from each individual EU member state. It will take effect in October following approval by the European Parliament.
The agreement follows nearly three years of acrimonious wrangling, during which time there were repeated breakdowns in negotiations.
The deal permits US companies to hold personal data on EU citizens provided the data-users adhere to agreed "safe harbour" principles. In cases of non-compliance, EU states are empowered to withhold data from offending companies.

"The finest of pleasures are always the unexpected ones." ― Erin Morgenstern, The Night Circus
A truly magical masterpiece.
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern in one of the most unique and captivating novels that I have read in a long time. Not only was the setting (the circus itself) absolutely beautiful, but the magic, the characters, and overall the main plot of the story was outstanding. I did find it to be slow at times and I was confused a lot, but in the end I discovered a book I will be talking about for a long while. The synopsis is as followed:
FROM PENGUIN RANDOM HOUSE: The circus arrives without warning.
No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night.
But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway: a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them both, this is a game in which only one can be left standing. Despite the high stakes, Celia and Marco soon tumble headfirst into love, setting off a domino effect of dangerous consequences, and leaving the lives of everyone, from the performers to the patrons, hanging in the balance.
Sounds great right? That's what I thought when I read the synopsis and I was right! TNC is one of those books that you need to go in completely blind. I didn't know what to expect when I was reading it and that made it that much better. Morgenstern has this way with words that is so poetic. Every sentence was so carefully crafted and each conversation was so thought out that the reality of this magical world really shone through.
The characters of Celia and Marco were very well written, but Poppet and Widget, the wile re-headed twins, stole the show for me. Poppet and Widget or Penelope and Winston Murray grow up with in the hectic circus and throughout the novel offer this whimsical layer that just makes it even better. I think the strongest part of this novel are the characters. Each was so intricately created that I believed these could have been real people.
Throughout the novel it is switching POV all the time along with setting and the time. I found that to be quite tiresome at times, but eventually grew to like the opposite POVs as they all started to tie together. In fact I wasn't quite aware that I liked the book until the ending. The end of this book is absolutely brilliant! If you are confused at the beginning of the novel, that will change once you realize the true story that had been somewhat hidden within the pages.
The magic is so beautiful and even though it is pretty basic such as healing wounds or vanishing objects, the illusionists use it to create beautiful images and masterpieces. You think it is a simple concept and then they turn it around and create rooms of ice and trees of candles! I loved it so much! I have a lot of admiration for authors who take simple ideas and write the most captivating stories!
I think if you are a fan of the novel Caraval by Stephanie Garber, then I have a feeling you are going to like this a lot. There is bits of history within that fuels my inner history buff, but also gives you that thrill of reading a fantasy story. This novel is one that I will have to read plenty of times to really absorb it and understand the depth of it.
I give this book 4/5 stars and hope you will read it. Morgenstern has not only created a unique situation between two magicians, but through the use of the other characters and the circus itself, she has created a world even bigger than I could have imagined. Full of plot twists, mystery, friendship, magic, sorrow, and love, The Night Circus is a novel for everyone and anyone and I highly recommend it!
Happy Reading!
– Haley

You're the type of guy who masturbates at the drop of a dime. The kind of guy who sneaks away at work to get off and spends most of your waking hours thinking about masturbating. Well that all ends when you're in chastity ... everything but the ache and the desire that is.
When you give yourself over to be denied and locked in chastity, you lose all control of that cock and it will now belong to ME. Your constant masturbating ends ... the sneaking off to masturbate ends; but the ache and denial begins.
I am fascinated with a man when he is locked in chastity ... many experience heightened excitement and, even better, find their focus in their everyday lives changed. More productive at work, and being more attentive to your spouse are just a couple of the changes I have witnessed happen to men in chastity.
Do you need a strong woman to control that cock and curb your masturbation addiction? Well chastity is a sexy, fun, albeit frustrating at times, solution to your problem. Whether it is short term chastity or long term chastity you will be amazed at what giving up that control will do for you, and just how much it excites ME!
Chastity with me is not a lock up and forget type situation ... I will be there every step of the way helping you through the rough days and being strong for you when you're at your weakest.
Are you ready to experience what chastity is like? Are ready to hand over all control of your cock? Give me a call and I will be the key holder and cock controller of your dreams.

Gas. What is the price of fuel around the world? – Z to A Blogging Challenge
In northwest Missouri, the price at the pump on Wednesday was 3.58 USD.
What is the price of fuel where you live?
Conversions (I probably shouldn't add this but here it is)
1 US gallon = 3.785 Litre

Here in Portugal it's 1.70 euros per litre. Gulp...ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 23, 2011 at 7:25 AM
OK, here in Tasmania, Australia I paid $1.48 a litre the other day. And since there are about 4 litres to a gallon, that would be $5.90 a gallon (since the Aussie and US dollars are about the same). If you take into account the exchange rate between the Euro and the US dollar, poor Lauracea above is paying around $9.90 a gallon.ReplyDelete
Just goes to show when it comes to fuel, you guys in the US are pretty lucky.
@ LauraceaReplyDelete
ditto 'gulp'
@ austrodavicus
yes, I agree. Time for me to quit complaining, huh?
- AnonymousApril 23, 2011 at 7:59 AM
I don't know Huntress, you guys have a lot to complain about over there, America IS doing it tough. So is Portugal from what I see on the news lately.ReplyDelete
I paid $3.79 USD a few days ago, just outside Washington, D.C.ReplyDelete
I try to keep my writing separate from this country's politics but,ReplyDelete
Okay. Feel better now.
*and w/o giving away my political views*
Gas is running between $3.75 to $3.84 a gallon locally.ReplyDelete
I'm always curious about this, too! Interesting... Here gas was $2.65 on Friday. Not as bad as you guys, but still pretty high. sigh. And I remember the days of 99 cents/gal... ;p <3ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing those conversions for gas prices. I don't know how much the gas is where I am because I often walk or take public transportation but I'm sure it's right around those three dollars and some change that you're charged in Missouri.ReplyDelete
The Madlab Post
It was $3.89 when I filled up on Thursday here in Ohio. It's getting to the point where I'm almost afraid to drive by the gas station for fear it will have jumped up again.ReplyDelete
Happy weekend to you! :)
Insanity! And another reason I'm glad not to have a car in the city!ReplyDelete
Gas is around $4.25 a gallon here in SoCal.ReplyDelete
Not sorry at all I: 1) bought a hybrid back in 2008, and 2)moved less than 1 mile from my day job last year. Between time saved commuting and gas costs, it is so worth it.
- AnonymousApril 24, 2011 at 1:13 PM
Yup- like Bev said, we in South Orange County, (southern California) and it's $4.25 for the lowest grade.ReplyDelete
Being laid off of work, I don't really drive except the kids to school and back...except our trots to Magic Mountain can get costly.
$3.57/gallon last time I looked... I could have sworn it was in the $2.?? range the week before, but I probably just hadn't been looking at the first number assuming it was supposed to be a 2 not a 3.ReplyDelete
In South Carolina, it's $3.69. We have a grocery store, BiLo, and they have coupled with Spinx, our gas station, to earn fuel perks. I had already earned 70 cents off a gallon, so I only paid $2.99 on Saturday.ReplyDelete
cheapest is 4.11 here in LA. And i have to fill up every week!ReplyDelete

Blueberry Ejuice
Blueberry Ejuice
At Premium Vape Supply we have thoroughly analyzed and compiled all of our Blueberry flavors from various brands such as Moo Blueberry, Donuts Blueberry and Prmyum Blueberry Melt. The flavors below will include some form or a strong resemblance of Blueberry flavor. They also may be blended with various other flavor combinations which will be more accurately depicted in the "Taste Test" section of each juice. Although taste is subjective and can be different for each user, we have done our best to classify Blueberry ejuice flavor based on our interpretation along with vendor profile descriptions to create a Blueberry specific category. Flavors under a certain profile can also be found under various other categories such as dessert, fruit, candy, etc. A Blueberry ejuice in candy can have a significantly different taste than a Blueberry ejuice fruit. Likewise, when the ejuice is comprised of several flavor profiles, the subtleness of the flavor notes can be affected.

Organising an Event: Staging an Event Essay
A contract is a mutual agreement which is enforceable in a court of law. The year thirteen business studies team organizing the Prague trip for the year twelve students had signed several contracts thereby agreeing to them. There is a criterion that each contract must have passed in order to be enforceable by law. The contract must be an offer. Therefore the business or individual must have supplied goods and services to another party i.e. the year twelve and thirteen business students and staff. The offer of the contract must have also been accepted by the business or individual providing the goods and services. Once the contract has been accepted by both parties, a payment of the supply of goods and services by the customer can be considered.
At Tuesday 29th January 2008, letters went out to the Parents of the year twelve and thirteen students concerning a parents evening based on the Prague trip. This was a contract offer since the year thirteen business studies team (the business), were providing a service for the year twelve students that required the parents/guardians (the other party) to accept the offer made by this team. For the parent letter to be a two-way agreement, both
Need essay sample ? We will write a custom essay sample specifically for you for only $ 13.90/page
The disagreement of signing the contract or the actual contract may occur because the parent may have more important commitments to attend to, or the parent may not have permitted their child to go on the Prague trip. If the contract has been signed mutually and one party has failed to fulfil the requirements of the contract, then necessary legal action can be taken. For example, if parents sign the contract and fail to turn up for the parents evening, legal action is permitted to be carried out. However, since there are no financial requirements in this contract, this would not be necessary. Since the parents letter did not request any financial payments, a payment for the supply of the service (i.e. parents evening) was not necessary, verifying the parents letter is legal and can be enforceable by law. An example of this contract is as follows:
A year thirteen business studies team representative 'Louise Conyard' emailed the coach letter she received after requesting a coach for the Prague trip, to another team representative 'Laura Port' to show Miss Crook so it can be provisionally booked, at 17th January 2008, who had legal responsibility to approve the Prague trip at all levels. This was a letter which the school had to accept by signing, agreeing to the offer of the 'Silverdale' coach service (other party) for the Prague trip which had been signed by the coach company, and just needed a year thirteen business team representative to sign the contract. The letter was signed both ways and then the coach services were paid for later on, making it a legal contract enforceable by law, so both parties have the right to carry out necessary legal action.
For instance, such legal action may be suing the coach company for not providing the transport services paid and requested for at the right place, at the right time. In this case, the coach parked at the Marlborough school parking zone at 2pm on Friday 22nd February 2008. This action may have occurred because a disagreement may occur between both parties i.e. the business and the customer. As a result, in reality the coach came twenty-five minutes early than it was supposed to be at the school, thereby fulfilling the contract's requirements.
At 17th December 2008, a year 13 business team representative 'Miss Carter' had to do a firm booking for the Prague trip and later received a letter which had to be approved by Miss Crook. This was a contract offer since European Study Tours were providing a school trip service (business) that required the year thirteen business team (the other party) to accept this offer made by the tour company. For this letter provided by European Study Tours (EST) to be a two-way agreement, it required the signature of Miss Crook, since a representative from EST has already provided their signature. For the declaration of this letter as a legal contract, it had to be paid for by the other party i.e. the year thirteen business studies for EST to provide their services. As a result, the services were paid for making it a legal contract enforceable by law, so both parties have the right to carry out necessary legal action.
This can be deduced by:
For example, if European Study tours fail to fulfil all the terms of the contract made with their customers i.e. the year thirteen business studies team, like providing accommodation for the students and staff at 'Park Hotel' in Prague, then the team is entitled to sue them for not doing so i.e. if the claim is worth being pursued. As a result, EST did provide accommodation at Park Hotel as they promised to, fulfilling the contract's accommodation requirements for students and staff.

Acts 2
1.We looked at the core characteristics of the early church seen in v. 42 & then explained in further detail in v. 43-47.
A: We started by talking about how they devoted themselves to sound teaching, the apostles' teaching. One part of sound teaching is that its aim is truth, not to be trendy. Why do people so often seem drawn more towards what's trendy rather than timeless truth?
B: Throughout the book of Acts, we see that sound teaching was foundational in the churches. It was said on Sunday that sound teaching is a part of the DNA of Christian community…what happens to Christian community when it departs from sound teaching?
C: We also talked about how they devoted themselves to meeting together. What helps you move beyond surface conversations/relationships into more meaningful conversations/relationships?
D: Their meeting together led to caring for one another…How can your community group become even more caring towards one another?
E: The passage speaks about how they ate together regularly & we were encouraged to think through the way we eat. What are traditions that you've established or want to establish that would lead to more value & significance during your mealtimes?
F: The early Christians also spent time praying together. How does spending time in prayer with others help produce unity?
2. We ended by talking about the outcome of their devotion to sound teaching, meeting together, eating together, & praying together.
A: One result was genuine unity. It was made clear that they weren't a perfect people, but they were a unified people. (Acts 6) Why is it good for us to read the book of Acts & see that the early church wasn't perfect, but had to overcome obstacles as well?
B: Pastor Matt alluded to Titus 2 & the idea of "adorning the doctrines of God our Savior." The early Christians appealed to those around them in the way they loved & cared for one another. What are other ways that you can make the gospel beautiful as you live your life?
C: We also saw that growth was a result of their devotion. Why is it so important to remember that growth is only by the grace of God, not our own doing?
3. We ended with some questions to consider.
A: What do you hope will be said about what you devoted yourself to?
B: What are ways that you would like to get more involved in the life & ministries of MBC?

We are in love with the 100% organic clothing range Dusty Road Apparel, designed specifically for our Aussie kids!
Dusty Road Apparel is a 100% organic Australian children's wear label that captures the imagination, freedom, playfulness and wild abandonment that comes so naturally for your children. Their vision is to create beautiful, ethical and unique clothing with a strong connection to Australian culture and the earth.

Founded by two mothers, Dusty Road Apparel is the combined concept of long term friends Amanda and Bessie.
'We grew up together on rural properties in a small town on the far south coast of New South Wales. It is here that we fostered our love for the Australian bush. Balmy summer days and nights spent exploring the coastline, listening to the rain on the tin can roof and kicking stones on the long and dusty roads. Much time was spent in the outdoors and it seemed only fitting we reflect this within the character style of our clothing.'
'Growing up, it was instilled in us the importance of protecting the earth and her beautiful gifts of nature. As we became mothers, passing on the concept of conservation to our next generation became even more important to us. When creating Dusty Road Apparel, we wanted to create something that was fun, beautiful and carried on our vision. Of course organic cotton was the only choice.'
Our clothing collection has been ethically produced, using sustainable raw materials, free from pesticides and chemicals and printed with organic dyes and pigments. We also strive to keep our business Australian made.

Summer means sew
Summer is my second favourite season (fall is my real, true favourite). However, I am and always have been a water baby, and there's nothing like a long day at the beach. That's why I've been thinking lately about some fun new summer projects- blankets that will work best for moms and babes on long sunny days and hot summer nights. I stumbled across this image and inspiration struck!

For the second year in a row, the E-money module of JPurse was used on Rockvillage, a luxurious camping during the festival of Rock Werchter. It was another success, just like last year's edition. No problems were encountered during 5 days of running in a live environment.
JPurse takes care of the check-in procedure, linking every (registered) guest to an account with a balance, which is spendable with a Rockvillage card. If people bought money vouchers on the webshop, their balance was automatically credited with the voucher amount during check-in. If they did not buy money vouchers, they were able to credit their account at the load point. Either by cash or by bank card. If they wanted to get something to drink or to eat, they just had to scan their card to pay for their purchases, and their balance was edited. It's as simple as that, but it's very effective and convenient. With the mobile app, guests were able to see their transaction history and balance, but also block their card in case of a lost card. Sales reports were handed over to the organisation, which is useful for marketing and planning purposes for next year's edition.
It is safe to say that it was a very nice and sunny edition. On to next year!

Conservative advocates opposed to House Speaker John Boehner's (R-OH) debt limit plan aren't relenting just because GOP leadership is twisting arms.
Club for Growth president Chris Chocola, and Red State founder Erick Erickson are both continuing to push House Republicans to vote against Boehner's plan when it comes to a vote on Thursday. Indeed, they're opposed to any plan that doesn't guarantee vast spending reductions, and allow conservatives to declare victory in a decades long fight over the propriety of federal safety net programs.
"That's why groups like the Club for Growth and others oppose the Boehner debt reduction plan, the Reid debt reduction plan, the McConnell debt reduction plan (has there been an Obama debt reduction plan?), and any other plan that does not include those basic tenets," Chocola writes in a Wednesday afternoon Politico op-ed. "Even newspapers like the Wall Street Journal that support the Boehner plan point out that 'It's true that the Boehner plan doesn't solve the long-term debt problem.'"
Erickson — an influential figure among House conservatives — is taking names.
"The GOP would not fight for smaller government when it was in the majority and now it seems it intends to cave abjectly in the minority hiding behind its minority status instead of fighting," he wrote in response to Wednesday's developments. "If the GOP won't fight in the majority and it won't fight in the minority, what good is it? Even now, guys like Jeff Flake and Mike Pence seem to be going wobbly…. these are the fights that define a conservative's legacy in Congress. The new guys might not realize that. But ultimately, we conservatives remember."
Several Republicans continue to oppose Boehner's plan, and several more remain on the fence. That latter group is getting pulled in every direction.

As I was buying shelves at Ikea I was also taking the opportunity to buy a hammock.

Ikea-hack Lerberg receiver stand
I'd this idea of a new receiver stand in my head, paralleled legs in a slight angle with different shelves.
So I browsed a little on Ikea and find the Lerberg-shelf (http://www.ikea.com/se/sv/catalog/products/70114753/), it was almost exactly the way I imagined it in my head. I thought if I could bend the back legs it would be nice and my maybe shorten the legs.
It's much easier to modify an existing product than creating a totally new one, so I decided to buy it.
Here are two examples of how the shelves looks like non-modified.
I cut out the legs to make it shorter and bent the back legs.
I attached the bottom shelf to get a feeling how it would be.
Screwed the rest of the shelves on.
This is the finished result.
It turned out pretty good. It is more stable than anticipated and could maybe even hold a 42″ flatscreen.

Things were looking promising up until the final moments of the day, but in the end, the Dow fell 14 points to 8277.32.
Obviously that's not huge, and if anything it just confirms the sleeper hold theory. There's no big impetus to move higher, nor any reason to go lower. The stock market is just kind of a zombie.
So, it's onto three days of enjoying the weather, eating bbq, and talking with your friends and neighbors about the future of America's sovereign debt (What, your acquaintances aren't going to be talking about that at this weekend's picnics? Sure...)
