BJ's daily beer review
Brewer: Hinterland / (@hinterlandbeer)
Beer: Pun Draught
Style: Pale Ale
Bought: Hinterland Gastro Pub, Milwaukee
Served: tap
Day consumed: July 25th 2011
My second anniversary dinner happened to be my second visit to the Hinterland Gastro Pub here in Milwaukee. It's an offshoot of the successful Hinterland Pub in Green Bay.
Always great food & good beer, plus an extensive wine list.
I got the beer paired prix fixe menu. 5 courses & 5 great samples of a wide range of Hinterland Brewery's offerings. I liked the Pub Draught on nitro (and their Luna Stout is always great).
Of course this was my anniversary dinner so instead of steadfast beer criticism, I opted instead for lovingly gazing into my pregnant wife's eyes as she ate a massive chunk of pork belly.

Guests keep telling us that they have seen the otters around and in fact yesterday the male was spotted in the lake just off our garden. But now thanks to the generosity of two regular visitors to The Old Rectory on the lake- Jane and Selwyn from the West Midlands – we have an otter either side of our front door! Knowing how much these delightful creatures play a part in our lives here at Talyllyn Selwyn spotted a model of one at a garden centre and decided to buy it for us. That was a year ago and yesterday he and his wife arrived here to stay again and they brought with them another one for company!
Watch a video we shot last year of the 'real' otters – mother and pups.

Perhaps you misunderstood what I was saying- or perhaps you didn't care. Yes I am a tank- I am a warrior tank besides. As a tank you are expected to be a leader- you can't be too confrontational or NO ONE LIKES YOU and you can certainly be too unconfrontational but it is your job to see a group through- to make sure that it DOES finish. So what the boomkin accidentally pulled another group with its huge aoe stuff- well you can do 1 of 2 things deal with it or 2 you can make everyone get a repair bill because your ego is bigger then your self-confidence. Being a tank is about knowing what you can do and about getting a feel about what the others in your group can do and planning for the worst case scenario often. See that other group of mobs on the other side of the boss in HoL before the boss? Grab em, get off your lazy butt and anticipate the crap your group may put you through and prepare accordingly. If something crazy happens then be ready to deal with it. Sure there are idiots and jerks out there and I'm not saying that you can't deal with them. When I said be Silent Bob its because people listened to him WHEN he did speak and he got stuff done. People respect others when they can take the crap they put out and are ready for more. I'm tired of people having no respect for tanks because they can't plan ahead for one little whoops here and there. These are 5 mans not ICC 25 hard modes against Arthas with a group of 17 people- treat them accordingly. Someone is being dumb repeatedly- let them die, they complain? Ignore them. There is an old saying: "don't guard your integrity, let it guard you". Be the best tank out there and even if people call you out for something that may or may not have happened then people won't get upset at you. People are stupid- be smart enough to compensate, that is what being a leader is all about.

This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
While all those hot coeds are out there partying, we're hard at work doing our review of Spring Break Fantasy. There's just something about the sun, the surf and the time off from studying that seems to bring the exhibitionist whore out in each and every gal. That's okay since they're flashing fancy breeds the voyeur in any red blooded male not to mention a few fellow females too.
This particular genre has some well-established and well-known competitors on the market, so when I first read the site name I thought it would be a badly produced generic rip-off, but I was wrong. Ironically, it seems that being less famous (or infamous some might say) has caused SpringBreakFantasy to compete by producing better quality content.
For example, currently there are 114 great-quality galleries. I mean the candid bikini-clad beach revelers and party goers are not only high-res, but also sometimes extra-large, high-resframes. You definitely have the impression that many shots are taken on the sly, but unlike so many other so-called voyeur cam type-sites, this one lets you see details clearly without compromise.
There are six sets of excellent-quality videos ranging in size from couple of clips to as many as 16 in a single set. These are most often shot during bikini contests, a daisy duke-to-duke competition, a salsa wrestling match and from various spy cams. Although, streaming-only the clips play in Windows Media format. This site has many chicks misbehaving badly since you'd be surprised what some will do win a $50 cash prize.
When I read the other couple of section headings I wasn't expecting much, but again I stand corrected, you'll find other bonus sites to enjoy each with great-quality galleries and more streaming videos to watch. The subscription is similar or even a bit lower than other sites, so Spring Break Fantasy seems worth it for coed voyeur fanatics.

Baked Grits Casserole
This casserole uses quick-cooking grits. If you have time, use longer cooking stone-ground grits, which yield even more flavor. To save time, cook grits the night before, adding seasonings and cheese; cover and refrigerate. In the morning, beat the egg whites and finish assembling the casserole. Note: The casserole falls slightly as it cools. Serve with fried eggs and vegetarian sausage or bacon.

Solar Stories
4-Year-Old Explains Solar Power
Sera is a 4-year-old who knows a thing or two about solar power, and she's spreading the news! The NY toddler, whose dad is a solar contractor with Real Goods Solar (formerly Alteris Renewables) thinks that solar panels are "neat". And why not?
Solar panels use the power from the sun to provide electricity to all of your home's appliances and gadgets. And, if you make more electricity than you use, in most states (like New York) you can sell that power back to the utility company. Your roof can become your very own power plant!
Solar power is clean, unlike coal or other fossil fuels, so using a solar electric system will help to preserve the planet for the next generation.
Incentives, rebates and financing options are making going solar easier than ever.
By installing solar panels on your home you can reduce or even eliminate your electric bill, protect your family's budget against rising utility costs, and help to keep the planet "clean and shiny" for future generations.
If you would like to learn more about what solar power can do for you, call 888.56.SOLAR or go online to schedule your free solar evaluation.

This product is perfect for us paper target shooters who occasionally like to shoot something with some mass (don't say that too fast!). Bowling pins have been a favorite of mine and these fit the bill. They are solid, wood cored - with a half inch hole in the bottom just like regular pins. Their profile - slender top, wide bottom - offers a variety of targeting possibilities. I shoot them at 100 to 200 yards (iron sights) with a white backdrop so I can gauge my misses. I highly recommend.

Salute to Moncef!!!
Hope he practices what he believes in! Pfizer is the worst amongst the big Pharma! as evidenced by 7billion/year for the past 7 years R&D investment with nothing in return!! That's because the R&D is overidden by incompetent and unethical managers!
Hear, hear! The comments would also apply to the marketing side of the business where CYA and "it can't be any good because it was not invented here" thinking have taken their toll. Some years ago, some newly minted MBA type authored an article entitled something on the order of "Its not the industry of our fathers anymore" which got widespread play. Unfortunate that it is not the industry of our fathers. When it was, it was a vibrant, risk taking and, at the same time gentlemanly, industry.
I sure wish I could invest in scientists instead of in company management.
Contrast the Schering-Plough "religion" per Tom Koestler – two of every three thumbs in the R&D pie belong to manufacturing and marketing.

Random access memory - it's what the computer uses for temporary storage. 1 + 1 = 2 would require three or more blocks of ram, since the computer see it as valueA + valueB = valueC. The computer would assign valueA and valueB memory space, then fill that space with the number 1. It would then calculate the sum of the pair, and assign it to valueC, before giving valueC back to the user. It's more involved than that, but that's the gist of it.
And the reason copyright lawyers go nuts over computers is because everything you do makes a copy. You have to copy stuff to RAM to use it, copy things over the Internet to "send" them, copy stuff back to the hard drive when you're done -- it's an endless stream of copies, and a strict interpretation of the law treats every single one of those copies as if you'd burned a pirated DVD and sold it from a box in Chinatown.
Blizzard's trying to use a specific addition to copyright law, the DMCA, to target Glider's activities, because part of what Glider does is copy WoW's information.

Can you guys do a primer on what bitcoins is?
I've never really understood
Untraceable currency pretty much. You mine it from block doing what is essentially brute force as a group or alone. When you discover a block you get bitcoins from it. Its pretty complicated but in the end its suppose to be a untraceable currency that keep inflation to a minimum. It does this by making it harder to find block, so the more people that do it the harder it is. Right now its at like 6-7 mil difficulty but 3 months ago was at 2mil. They are projecting it to be upwards of 100mil sometime this year if it keep going how it its.
I hope this helped some but I just barely grasp it enough to think about it much less put it in words.
appreciate sir. Did you have to google it? Cause honestly i hard time reading this too as i didnt really understand what was going on
No I actually heard about bitcoins a couple years ago I would say when they were in their infancy. I mined with my 6870 for a coupe days then said screw this and stopped. Fast forward a couple years later a buddy of mine started getting into it and so I have sorta. I got a couple low power AMD cards I use to mine in my HTPC but that's about it. I almost got 1 bitcoin actually but to make any money you need a ASIC which are going for 6-10k or alot of high end AMD cards to mine faster. Nvidia cards suck at mining as well as CPUs.
Their is other currency such as litecoin that use memory bandwidth that nvidia cards might be good at but since I only own AMD I don't have anyway to test them. Just remember my description is a very short one. To actually get into it you need to do and research alot more stuff.
Ops almost went for it
If you still wanna buy Bitcoins in the UK, directly without intermediators on ebay or other middle men (with huge fees) is difficult, I made this guide with a simple process:
3 years ago I tried to get my Bitcoin miner up and running but sort of just gave up and didn't think it was worth my time, man do I wish I had stuck with it.
I probably would've had about $10,000 worth of Bitcoins.
If anyone's curious to finding more information on it, recently a really informative thread's popped up on reddit, here's the link
You definitely would of had more. When I was mining a couple years ago I got a couple bitcoins but they were worth like $4-5 bucks and never did anything with them since it was not worth it to me to get actual cash for them. I wish I remembered where I had them and I could be buying a new GPU today. If you had been consistently mining the last 2-3 years you could have alot more than 10k I think.
I'm curious as to why all the headlines focus on the crash when they're still trading for double of a month ago. You'd think we'd be happy when geeks make a few bucks.
Heh im still waiting for it to crash back down to $50 per bitcoin. That or I got like 1 bitcoin and if it hits $200-250 I may just go sell it and be done. Right now the only way to make any good money is ASICs or having highend AMD GPUs like the 7950.

Latham launches in Saudi with former White & Case sponsor
Readers' comments (12)
How did they manage to persuade their NY based orthodox partners to agree to open in Saudi Arabia? And how does the Saudi practice sit with the much vaunted Latham & Watkins Israel Practice Group?
I would have thought that Riyadh needs "sophisticated legal counsel" about as badly as it needs sand.
What are they going to advise on?
Cutting Edge - clearly you have no knowledge of the ME markets. There are huge opportunities in KSA and every single international law firm on the face of this earth is desperate to have a presence there. There must be a reason for that - don't you think??
DLucre- haven't you heard that money has no religion? and guess what some international law firms even have orthodox partners based in the ME !!!
Anonymous | 8-Apr-2010 9:34 am needs to spend sometime in Riyadh before making such ill informed statements. As someone who knows the market well, I can assure that there are no orthodox Jewish lawyers operating in the Saudi market.
On the contrary, Anonymous | 8-Apr-2010 9:34 am, money IS a religion
Im orthodox and operate in the Saudi market. What a disgraceful debate. Why does it matter what religion a lawyer is. they are there to make deals not to preach!
Anonymous 3:20 pm - you are an orthodox what? If you an orthodox jew then please tell us which saudi embassy issued you with a visa?!
Anonymous | 8-Apr-2010 9:34 am
I am a lawyer in Riyadh with an international firm. I may know nothing about the ME markets but I know the Riyadh market.
You can believe the "massive opportunities" line as much as you like but the reality is sadly different. There is no job in Riyadh that can't be handled by a 6/7 PQE and most can be handled by a 3/4.
Must be really sophisticated if that is the case.
i think we all know what is being referred to by orthodox and lathams. They are a jewish firm. there is no place for religious discrimination in saudi or elsewhere.
What do guys think will happen in the upcoming months in terms of Latham vs. W&C?
In your opinion, will L&W succeed in taking over most of W&C's recent business? (I'd say yes, except for Aramco, which will continued to be managed by W&C from outside Saudi Arabia.)
Will W&C rise from the ashes and get back to being a great firm in Saudi? (I'd say yes as well.)
How will they achieve that? (I'd say from partners and associates relocation and lateral hires from some of the good int'l firms established in Saudi),
Hey Anonymous | 9-Apr-2010 11:00 am,
I agree with you that there should not be any religious discrimination but I sensed that you have certainly never stepped your foot into Saudi soil.
The religious police's main duty in the kingdom is to scrutinize ladies, and demand or apprehand (with the police's help) ladies who do not wear headscarf, wear short skirts or shorts beneath their abayas, etc. Also, shops are forced to closed for prayers 5 times a day. Furthermore, churhes are banned in the Kingdom. Prey tell me, do these scenarios (there are many more incidences and these examples are only the tip of the iceberg!) fit your "no place for religious discrimination in saudi" statement?
I think Latham is going to be the next Broebeck. They're growing too fast and some of their moves make no sense.

HomeWord - Dec. 6, 2007
This devotional was written by Kelly McFadden
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish the arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
Ephesians 6: 13-18
If you've ever been around or seen competitive sports you know at least this: Athletes don't just show up on game day and compete – there is a lot of preparation that goes on before ever setting foot on a field or in a gym. When I played professional volleyball for the St. Louis Quest we began training a month and a half before our season started. We barely even stepped onto the volleyball court during those weeks – we conditioned. We ran, we jumped, we lifted, we drilled – with three practices a day we ate, slept and breathed volleyball.
As the season began our practices became centered on that week's opponent. We studied the opposing teams by watching videos and coordinating drills in order to combat their strengths. We worked on areas that we knew would exploit their weaknesses. Our coaches developed strategies and game plans. We trained to win. We prepared to give ourselves the best chance at victory.
Jesus came and died for us. Even he 'trained' during his life by studying (Luke 2:41-52), fasting (Matthew 4:1-11), praying (John 17:6-26)…It is so important for Christians to realize that being a Christian is not a one time decision. Being a Christian is a daily decision to follow Christ. And let me warn you, this is usually not the easiest or most popular place to be. In fact, most of the time, it is difficult. That is why we must be prepared. A Roman soldier would never have gone into battle without all of the appropriate equipment, or he would surely have been defeated. Just like a soldier or an athlete if you are not prepared you will lose the battle. Christians are called to be alert and prayerful in their faith. If we are not prepared, sin will conquer.

1. What are areas in your life that you have to prepare and train for? What happens when you are not prepared?
2. How can you, as a Christian, put on your armor each day?
3. Why is it important that each day you are prepared and ready to make a Godly decision?

Angels top Rangers, 5-2Mike DiGiovanna, Los Angeles Times
ARLINGTON, Texas -- Mike Morin retired the side in order in the eighth inning, and Joe Smith threw a one-two-three ninth for his 14th save Saturday night, the Angels rolling to a 5-2 victory over the Texas Rangers that gave them 18 wins in 22 games.
The Angels could get used to this. Not just the winning, but the lock-down efforts of a bullpen that two months ago was viewed as the team's most glaring weakness but is emerging as a strength, the group pitching to a 1.68 earned-run average and holding opponents to a .188 mark in the last 19 games.
"We're filling up the strike zone, getting ahead of guys, and we're feeling better as a whole," said Smith, who has thrown nine straight hitless innings.
"It's a big turnaround from the beginning of the year. It's a good feeling when you come running out of the bullpen and you can see the guys have confidence in you."
The bullpen was a mess for much of April and May, the meltdowns of closer Ernesto Frieri, some early inconsistency from Kevin Jepsen and Fernando Salas and the lack of a left-hander preventing the establishment of defined roles.
The Angels used 18 relievers in the first 21/2 months, and through June 22, they combined to go 11-8 with a 4.48 ERA and convert just 16 of 28 save opportunities.
But Jepsen began racking up scoreless innings, and Morin, the 22-year-old rookie, was called up from double A in late April and began fooling hitters with his superb changeup.
Smith, the sidearm-throwing right-hander, replaced Frieri as closer in late June, the Angels traded Frieri to Pittsburgh for right-hander Jason Grilli on June 27, and they acquired veteran left-hander Joe Thatcher from Arizona on July 5.
Smith has converted all nine of his save opportunities since and retired the side in order in 10 of his last 11 games. Grilli has not given up an earned run in six innings, and Jepsen has given up one earned run in his 262/3 innings, lowering his ERA to 2.13 in 44 games.
Those three have solidified the eighth and ninth innings, and Morin, who has a 2.14 ERA in 32 games, and Salas, who has a 3.03 ERA in 30 games, have provided quality middle relief.
Thatcher hasn't been much of a factor, appearing in only three games, but he provides a dimension -- a situational left-hander with a funky delivery -- the bullpen has lacked.
"There's a different vibe," Jepsen said. "Early in the year, there was so much movement, and it's tough to get that chemistry until you have a set group of guys. Everyone knows their role, and everyone has bought into it. Everyone has the same mentality -- throw strikes, go after guys, don't walk guys. I like our bullpen."
So does Manager Mike Scioscia, who thinks the bullpen is much better equipped to compete in close games now.
"That really comes down to the effectiveness of our bullpen," Scioscia said. "I think we're evolving as a team, and part of that is the back end of the bullpen being able to hold leads in tight games."
Smith has anchored the bullpen, but not with the heavy fastball or nasty breaking ball most closers use. Smith rarely tops 90 mph, but his pitches dip and dart around the strike zone and are tough to square up.
"Everybody likes the power arm, the strikeout guy," Smith said. "But if I keep the ball down, induce grounders and keep the ball in the yard, it takes three hits to score a run."
A Cleveland setup man from 2009 to 2013, Smith said pitching the ninth "isn't any different" from the eighth, and it shows.
"A lot of setup guys do a good job in the eighth, and for some reason the ninth inning gets away from them," said catcher Hank Conger. "But Joe has done a good job of treating it as any other inning and not putting too much pressure on himself or thinking, 'Oh my God, one mistake can change the game.'"
Angels 5, Rangers 2
KEY MOMENT: With the Angels trailing, 2-1, Albert Pujols and Josh Hamilton led off the sixth inning with singles, and Howie Kendrick, on his 31st birthday, lofted a run-scoring single to right-center, his third hit of the game. David Freese added a tiebreaking RBI single, and Hank Conger grounded a two-run double to right to cap a four-run rally and push the Angels toward their 28th come-from-behind win of the year.
AT THE PLATE: The Angels got a scare in the eighth when Collin Cowgill squared to bunt, and Matt West's high-and-tight fastball nicked off his right thumb and the bat and struck him in the nose, opening a gash that bled profusely. Cowgill remained conscious and alert, and after receiving stitches in his nose, he was taken to a hospital for further tests.
ON THE MOUND: Jered Weaver, pitching in 97-degree heat, showed no ill effects from the lower-back tightness that forced him out of his last start after two innings. He retired 15 of the last 18 batters in a seven-inning, two-run, four-hit effort that improved him to 10-6 with a 3.45 earned-run average. "Everything felt great," Weaver said. "I didn't feel restricted or worried about it. It's nice to come out of it unscathed."

As the Ottawa Senators surrendered a 1-0 lead to Mike Fisher and the Nashville Predators in the third period of last night's game, you could almost hear Coach Paulrus speaking the steadying words of Gold Five in Star Wars to his young team; "Stay on target! Staaayy ooon targeeeettt!"
And that's exactly what the RABHA did against Nashville, extending their 11-point streak to six games (5-0-1). Minus a few minor giveaways and adding some great, momentum-correcting saves from The Alien, the Sens battened down their hatches, got a few lucky bounces, equalized the play, provided a solid penalty kill at the end of OT and buried the Predators in the shootout 2-0.
Zibanejad made a great outside move on backup Preds goalie Marek Mazanec, beating him blocker-side, while Spezza found a way to do a quick dangle and get a trickler to go through Maz's fivehole.
Aside from the obvious ridiculousness of shootouts, the Sens found a way to grab another two points on the road and helped to increase their playoff chances.
There's an old adage that streaking teams get all the luck, which has definitely been true lately for the Sens. Beating Montreal 4-3 in OT a few games ago, there were moments of complete D-zone breakdowns where the RABHA could have easily lost that game. In Colorado, they did lose, in fact, (after coming back from a 2-0 deficit to take a 3-2 lead and blow it in the third), but luckily, the game went to OT and the Sens nabbed a point.
In Nashville, the Sens were outshot 33-21 and had a tough time getting any shots or decent opportunities in the third…but in the end, that is all null and void.
As we all know, sometimes losses or wins just aren't 'fair', but in the NHL universe, the score sheet is what matters. Even though the nines line didn't see much action from Conacher or Michalek (minus a nice forecheck by Con-dogs to force a bad D-zone giveaway to Turris who netted the only regulation goal), the S line (Spezza, Stone, Smith) had some great moments of connection and look like they are going to start clicking.
But I think the major difference between big market and small market fans is this; Big market team fans want their star players to produce but small market teams fans just want to their team to win at any cost.
I'm not saying that big market team fans don't ALSO want to win – I'm just saying that sometimes, they want to win a specific way.
Right now, if you're a Sens fan, you can't help but feel good about this team's momentum and another two-point belt notch heading into the final thirty-five-ish games of the season.
There's one last point I'd like to add to this article, and I hope that I can emphasize this as strongly as humanly possible; Jason Spezza, no matter what you think about the guy, increases his team's chances of winning.
I understand that he is definitely a polarizing figure to the Ottawa media and Sens fans. He makes weird plays with the puck and sometimes, because he has a playmaker mindset, he gives the puck away. I've been there with you, raising my first and cursing his name while watching a game as he made a backpass to Casper the friendly ghost.
But for all of the rightful responses that are circulated about this guy, I have to laugh at some the asinine, mindless comments that are written about him.
This is the one that I love the most:
"Spezza makes us lose games".
Oh really? Well that's an interesting logical tact to take – and though I see your reaching anger, I also see the ultimate futility of your words and raise you this point (answered by a series of retardedly rhetorical questions):
Since his arrival on the team in 2002, who has been on the team every year that the Sens have made the playoffs (eight times in 10 seasons)? Oh right – Jason Spezza. But wait – who was on the team when they made their only run to the Stanley Cup finals, though? Oh shoot. Right. Spezza again. Wait, though – who has scored the most goals for the team since 2002? Oh wait – it's Jason Spezza with a stunning 240 NHL goals to date.
But hold on, since their recent four-game winning streak, Spezza came back and we lost our first game on this streak, so that counts for something, right?
Oh but – he also scored a regulation, PP goal to tie the game against Colorado and then he scored the game-winning goal in the shootout the very next game against the Preds. So…there's that.
Here's my point: As much as I love Ottawa, the city, and the hockey team, Sens fans often don't have a leg to stand on when it comes to their opinions about Spezza.
And what I find the funniest about these opinions are statements like "Spezza is not half the captain that Alfie was" when in actuality, a massive chunk of these same fans were calling into Team 1200 for the early years of Alfie's captaincy, saying things like "The Sens will never win with #11 as our captain."
Really, Sens fans? We would never win with Alfie? Do we have to keep having this conversation?
It's history repeating itself. Smarten up and be original. It's easy and weak to hate Spezza. If you're going to critique the team, have the balls and the decency to say that the whole team played poorly instead of scapegoating our new captain and throwing one guy under the bus.
Like him or hate him – but give the guy some f&*king time! He's been wearing the C for 12 weeks, now.
At any rate, the Jason Spezza-led 20-18-8 RABHA roll into Minnesota on Tuesday to play the Minnesota Wild at 8:00 EST.

Rebirth Chapter 8Chapter 8
The dark purple dragoness awoke the following morning, to the peaceful, quiet sound of birdsong in the distance, emanating through her open window. The sound, carried by a cool, early morning breeze was an ironically peaceful and tranquil beginning, to what for Cynder, and more importantly one of her best friends, would become a day from hell. As Cynder slowly awoke, to find she had (for once) slept alone in her own bed, her mind slowly began to fill her in on the details and events that had occurred the evening before. Raiko not coming back. The sight of his injuries worsening. The thought of Twilight melting in heartbreak when she would have to tell her the news. All the thoughts hovered around her mind, and slowly slotted themselves into place, bringing Cynder slowly back into her dreadful reality. Once her mind had briefed her on the events of the night before, and what she would have to do today, Cynder let out a long, deep sigh and began to stretch herself out.

Prologue - Restless Night
Through the darkness in a silent room, a young black dragon stirred restlessly up and down through the layers of sleep. His mate, the somewhat beautiful blue and white dragoness Twilight, slept heavily next to him, oblivious to his constant shuffling. Raiko awoke completely for the fifth time that night, to find he had barely slept another 20 minutes since he last awoke from his light sleep. Raiko at this point had lost his patience and instead of trying fruitlessly for a sixth time for any form of decent sleep, he decided he would try and solve the problem. He needed to wear himself out, and to clear his head. Luckily, there was one thing he loved to do more than anything (besides Twilight) that did both for him. Raiko rolled over to face his beloved mate sleeping next to him. She was on her side, facing away from him, wings tucked in her sides and tail curled in front o

Twilight closely and carefully analysed surroundings, both her heart and mind racing at light speed. Her blood was pumping round so fast around her body, and her muscles were so tight that she could barely think. She tried to concentrate on her surroundings, focusing all her determination into her mind, and attempting to analyze the environment for the slightest flicker of hope, faintest clue, or trace of movement. Brute force however refused to work for her. Her panicked and desperate brain, no matter how hard she forced it to, simply could not make heads or tails of anything around her, and couldn't come up with any information as to her beloved's whereabouts. Suddenly however, the spiritual side of Twilight soul suddenly kicked in. Twilight felt a faint voice in the back of her head telling her to relax, and take control of the situation. "Calm down Twilight. Relax and allow your environment to fill you up. Just relax and think for a moment." Came the ghostly voice at the

It was now late afternoon, and the temperature was rapidly dropping as Cynthia searched for food. She had been able to collect a few apples, assorted nuts, and had even been able to catch a juicy trout from the fresh water river that ran through the forest and fed several watery spots, including were she would soon have to head back to. She had eaten the fish pretty much instantly herself though, on account of her own hunger, (Lucia had often complained about how tetchy Cynthia got when she was hungry).
Climbing down from yet another fruitless tree, her ears pricked up, as a tempting sound invaded her mind. Clucking. Such a promising sound. She slowly peered over the foliage, trying to catch sight of her prize without being spotted herself. Sure enough, there it was. A juicy looking, wild chicken. Easily enough food for all of them; if she could catch it.
Staying low, Cynthia began to make her way slowly around the

As the four of them walked through the forest, Dash leading the way out in front, Raiko's mind turned to his life in the last few years, the years before his exile. In the years that followed, he had been through hell to be saved by an angel, but more on that, crashing into Dash again, (quite literally), had brought back an awful lot of memories; both happy and painful. Dash represented his old life; a life Raiko was desperate to forget. He walked along next to Raven, with Crystal lagging a little way behind. Raiko didn't look at either of them however, but simply stared into the middle distance, lost in his own thoughts.
"I suppose it must be awkward seeing Dash again after all these years eh Raiko?" Raven commented. He had been watching him for a while with great interest, staring at his absent expression and trying to guess what he might be thinking. Raiko snapped out of his daze and considered Raven for a few seconds an

It's amazing that with the growing popularity of social media, large, traditionally professional groups/businesses/etc. are doing things like this. It absolutely blows my mind.

Water-Wrinkled Fingers Hold Evolutionary Purpose
Wrinkly fingers caused by soaking them in water for a long time, such as in the bath or doing the dishes, have been shown to improve our grip on wet objects or objects under water. Scientists at Newcastle Univ. studied people taking objects out of water with wrinkled fingers and again without wrinkled fingers to explain why the effect occurs.
Author Tom Smulders, publishing the paper in Biology Letters says, "We have shown that wrinkled fingers give a better grip in wet conditions – it could be working like treads on your car tires which allow more of the tire to be in contact with the road and gives you a better grip. Going back in time this wrinkling of our fingers in wet conditions could have helped with gathering food from wet vegetation or streams. And as we see the effect in our toes too, this may have been an advantage as it may have meant our ancestors were able to get a better footing in the rain."

As we approach the one-year anniversary of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, where on Dec. 14, 2012, 20 children and six adults lost their lives, Eyewitness News will share a little about each person's life and how their families are honoring their legacies.
Benjamin Wheeler was born in New York City on Sept. 12, 2006, son to David Cole and Francine Wheeler. He was an adoring fan of his older brother, Nate.
The 6-year-old Benjamin had aspirations of being an architect, a paleontologist and a lighthouse keeper. Ben was bright, spirited, filled with creativity and had an excitement for life.
Benjamin loved soccer and was becoming a strong swimmer. He was eager to learn and loved going to school to see his teacher and his new first grade friends.
Just days before he died, Ben performed at a piano recital.
Ben's spirit shines on through Ben's Lighthouse, an organization created to honor the memory of him and the angels of Sandy Hook Elementary School.
"Francine Wheeler came up with the name Ben's Lighthouse, which was a perfect metaphor for what we're trying to do," said Rick Haylon, chairman of Ben's Lighthouse. "A lighthouse guides and protects, and Ben loved lighthouses."
At Ben's memorial service, the church was filled with pictures and models of his beloved lighthouses. The mission of his Lighthouse Fund is to support the children of Newtown and the surrounding areas in a safe and non-violent environment.
"We realized that there were many more than 26 families affected," Haylon said. "There were thousands of families in and around Newtown that were affected in many different ways."
"We saw immediately the need to support the children as they worked through this over the many years to come," Haylon said.
Ben's Lighthouse is committed to assisting the youth through whatever challenges the coming years may bring. There are outreach programs that empower and educate children to help others, workshops that teach coping mechanisms and events that build and strengthen the community.
"Last June 15, which was the weekend of the six-month anniversary, we introduced ourselves to the public through a free Lighthouse Festival," Haylon said.
More than 1,000 children came to the festival. Everyone was welcome to explore the beautiful, custom, 20-foot tall lighthouse in front of the Trinity Church in the center of Newtown. Family after family left their mark on the whiteboards and chalkboards.
"What was going to be a tough weekend - there were just smiles all over the place," Haylon said.
Ben's light still shines on the community. While the work of Ben's Lighthouse may never be done, it promises to always work to help each child find his or her inner light.

Freshies: Oblivion by M83 (feat. Susanne Sundfør)
M83 dropped a super orchestral tune this week for the release of the new movie Oblivion. The feature film's title track is complete with a roller coaster of melodies, tempo's and electro infused chords accompanied by the cinematic vocals of Susanne Sundfor. The song is a blockbuster movie experience of its own when listened to.
Currently Obsessed With: I Am Not A Human Being II by Lil Wayne
We're celebrating the return of Lil Wayne, back at it with, I Am Not A Human Being II. Weezy's latest album is loaded with inspirational tracks addressing his trials and tribulations about life pre and post jail. The first few seconds of the album alone are made of symbolic piano chords before filtering into Weezy's hard flow. Filled with energy and plenty of sexually explicit references to just about everything. I Am Not A Human Being II may not be Weezy's best record, but it's still good to have Lil Wayne back and just as crude as before.
Watch Out For: Foals
Gaining momentum from the success of their last record, Total Life Forever, Foals has been on the rise in, 2013 with their latest album Holy Fire. On the roster of this year's Coachella Music Festival, and about to kick off what's sure to be a sold-out summer tour we're stoked on seeing this bands new sounds live.

The problem actually has to do with the way that NetBoot filters computers. It used to be that you could turn filtering on and off, but now, it is not so simple. In the Image Properties window, you have the option to either all model types, or just the ones selected from a given list.
However, MAC filtering is different, you can't simply say allow all. The default selection is to allow only only those computers with the matching MAC addresses in the list below and deny others. This is what is preventing computers from being able to boot. And unless you are interested in manually entering in every new MAC address, it is impractical.
The second option is to deny only those computers in the list below and allow all others. It would be easy to select the second option, however, Lion Server has a bug that prevents you from selecting Deny Only if the list is empty. If you simply select it and save, it reverts to the default allow only option.
To get around this bug, enter in a MAC address of 00:00:00:00:00:00 and then select the Deny Only option. Save the changes and now all of your computers should be able to boot to any images you have.
Note: you'll have to make this change for every image.

The Intercultural Communication Center (ICC) offers on-going language support in a format designed to allow full-time students to attend a series of short workshops and classes during the length of their program. The goal of our center is to help students develop the skills needed to successfully complete their degree programs. We do not offer traditional ESL language classes; our classes instead focus on the types of skills needed for academic success, and are aimed at students who have at least a minimum TOEFL score of 600 PBT/84 iBT (the score generally required for students in academic programs at Carnegie Mellon). The ICC does not generally fit the needs of exchange students since those students are often on campus for only one or two semesters, and may either need more basic ESL training than we can offer, or be looking for advanced classes in writing, linguistics or public speaking.

Labor's 'dirty' ad pulled from YouTube at Liberal request
Summary: Shadow Education Minister Christopher Pyne has claimed that YouTube pulled a Labor ad from its website for breaching YouTube's terms of service, but it was actually pulled down due to a copyright claim from the Liberal party.
An ad mocking the Coalition's New Hope election-launching advertisement created by the Australian Labor Party was pulled just hours after being uploaded, becoming the first casualty of a digital war fought on all social media fronts between the two major parties in the 2013 Australian election.
The video, which was renamed "The Liberals' New Hope (For Power)", pointed out the flaws that Labor perceives in the Coalition's policies. It was uploaded to the site on Tuesday, but had been removed from YouTube by Wednesday.
In a press release late on Wednesday, Shadow Education Minister Christopher Pyne said that "even YouTube can't trust Labor to do the right thing".
"YouTube remove videos when they breach their terms of service, when they're offensive, contain illegal [Pyne's emphasis] material, or contain copyrighted content," he said in the press release.
"But having a political advertisement removed is unprecedented in Australia."
However, on closer inspection, it is clear that the video was pulled from YouTube at the request of the Liberal Party of Australia on copyright grounds. Undeterred, Labor also uploaded the video to Facebook, only to once again have to pull the video at the request of the Liberal Party on copyright grounds.
A Labor source suggested that the video should be allowed under copyright as it is a parody, but the campaign has not yet sought to challenge the removal requests from the Liberal Party, instead uploading the video to Vimeo. After this article was first published, the video was again removed from Vimeo, but has now been uploaded to Daily Motion.
The Liberal Party is also guilty of using Labor's own copyright material in its advertising, including a photo of Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's shaving accident taken from Rudd's personal Instagram account in one of its own ads on Facebook.
A spokesperson for Pyne was approached for comment, but no response had been received at the time of writing.
Google said it does not comment on the removal of individual videos from YouTube.

Interested in winning a $250,000 dream home? If you happened to miss out on the Pick 'n Save Monopoly Sweepstakes this past summer you are in luck.
Because this fall, Pick 'n Save brought out a new promotional tactic to capitalize on the success of the Green Bay Packers. Ironically titled "The Winning Play," the Roundy's marketing team has produced a scratch off game with millions of dollars and special offers as prizes. The premise is simple enough. By shopping at your local Pick 'n Save, a number of scratch cards will be offered in accordance with certain bonus items you purchase at the participating locations. Once the game cards are in hand, it is only a matter of scratching off the winning combination and quickly rushing back to the customer service desk and redeeming them for a myriad of wonderful prizes.
Which would of course be a delightful activity for all ages to enjoy except for the miniscule inconvenience that you NEVER WIN. No really, I mean it. The odds of finding a four-leaf clover on your first try (10,000 to 1) are greater than actually winning one of the top prizes in this game.
Oh, but the exhilaration is certainly there. It is impossible not to feel the air crackling as you put the groceries away and spread out your horde of game cards all over the kitchen table. Even as time and time again the scratch cards defeat you, the little voice in the back of your head reassures you that the next card is a sure winner. So you keep on scratching long after reasonable logic has told you to give it up. But then, as if by miracle, you scratch off three consecutive helmets and the trumpets start playing. You leap to your feet and in the same continuous motion you reach for your phone with the single-minded focus of alerting someone to your victory. Finally as your heart returns to stable condition and your fingers stop trembling you are able to scratch off the silver shavings that are the only thing separating you from early retirement. With the steady hand of a neurosurgeon you carefully scrape away the box and stare with abject horror at what lies beneath. "You could win two WINNING PLAY Game Tickets." The irony is overwhelming.
But it is too late, you are hooked. You have to hand it to those marketing guys. They have developed an excellent gimmick that plays on the weakness of the typical American greed.
Even so, it is not always heartbreak. Perhaps you will get lucky and by a stroke of luck will win twenty-five cents off of a product that you would only consider using if the planets were all aligned correctly. However, chances are you won't. Better to go back to the field and start picking clovers. Looks like they still could not find a winner for that $250,000 dream house.

It is one thing to buy a gun and have the guts to carry it and the courage to use it. It is an entirely different case with Bloomberg. He buys men with guns that can carry and use them thus lording over us. He aims to "fix" everything that he finds offensive to his personal values not the least of which are FATTIES! No guns. No smokes. No super-sized sodas. Bloomberg is in the business of protecting us from ourselves. Now . . . who will protect us from him and his ilk?
To make any sense at all, you must read my three posts in chronological order. This is the last one. The one with the quotes is number two. And the "Today I saw" post is number one. Forgive me. I am verbose and the paltry few lines afforded me here limit my coherence. Finishing the rant: Blacks are second class by their own admission in accepting racial preference. I know that blacks are as capable as any other race when given opportunity and positive incentive. Lest you think I am an unjust critic, my great grand parents father's side were black. I don't care about race as worth is determined by behavior alone.
We contend that for a nation to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. Winston Churchill (1874–1965) When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. When the government fears the people, there is Liberty. A government big enough to give you everything you want is powerful enough to take everything you have. - Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) It is the prohibition that makes anything precious. - Mark Twain (1835-1910) It really doesn't get more succinct! And about my seemingly racist comments previously . . . it was merely to make a point that poor blacks are enslaved by the government that coddles them and doesn't require any exceptionalism .
Today I saw on TV here in Atlanta just how far the blacks have come from slavery. There were hundreds of black souls standing in a very long line to receive a handout from Big Brother to "help" them with their energy bills for the winter. They were also complaining about standing in line for their handouts! Ingrates! Bloody INGRATES! They should be happy they aren't being beaten too! Look, this was all foretold by one the geniuses that founded the country and his prescient view is attached to everyone of my emails as are other brilliant words of wisdom that government types refuse to accept, liberals are too blind to see and most are too engrossed by their instant-gratification technolives. Here they all are in my next post:
