Done in the Zone with the Meneur the ringleader a lone elsen who constantly spews smoke stands in front of the guardian's door constantly. Abused and injured almost constantly he is the only guard for the man who has spent much time with this single elsen named Zed.
Do not take him as weak or cowardly. Thought abused he stands up for himself and isn't afraid to speak his mind to any others that are not Meneur. He respects the guardian with every bit of life he holds in him. A lot of respect coming from the fact that the man taught him a lot of control and gave him more privileges and things than any other elsen in the zone.
Idk i was having a little fun. Zed is a cute.

NASCAR driver Kyle Busch has announced that he will be closing his Nationwide team. The reason behind his decision is simply a lack of sponsorship.
According to an article by the Associated Press, found on ESPN,
Busch drove the car in 2012, when he went winless in the Nationwide Series. He went back to driving Joe Gibbs Racing's cars in Nationwide this year — winning 12 times — and used [Parker] Kligerman in his Kyle Busch Motorsports car.
Busch also fields three entries in the Truck Series and won Friday night's race at Homestead-Miami Speedway. It clinched the owners' championship for Busch, who won eight races as an owner. Busch had six victories and Darrell Wallace Jr. and 17-year-old Erik Jones also won for the team.
The driver for Busch's Nationwide team, Parker Kligerman, didn't have a bad season. He accounted for 13 top-10 finishes while driving Busch's No. 77 Nationwide car.
Sponsorship is a big part of NASCAR, and without it, teams can and will fail in the long run, much like Busch's team did here. It's unfortunate, but that's the business of the sport.

I didn't have a shower for my first baby -- can I have one for my second?
I had my first baby out of wedlock and didn't have a shower. Now my husband and I are expecting our first child together. (He has a child from a previous relationship, too.) Is it okay to have a shower for this baby, even though she'll be our third child?

I would most definiately have a shower for my second, third, fourth and so on. It's not fair to celebrate just one childs arrival. Plus with the constantly changing rules and regulations for toys, cribs, etc. you always need something new. Go ahead and celebrate the birth of your baby. Just think about all the baby scrap books - there is always a section in them that is dedicated to "your baby shower". You don't want to leave that part blank do you?posted 05/24/2004 by SdCalGirly
Of course its ok! Afterall, there isnt a rule that says its forbidden. You are having a second baby, you deserve to get new items, and start fresh again. A new addition deserves his/her own items..this is a big deal. GO for it, have your shower, and enjoy every bit it!posted 05/24/2004 by kiddin'
One thing some of my friends do for second (or third!) babies is have a small "shower" after the baby is born. That way, it's kind of an excuse to see the baby, and a way for the mom to see her friends for a bit and feel special. Gifts are appreciated, but not necessary, and are definitely not as big as at a first shower.posted 05/24/2004 by qirien
There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with having a baby shower for your second baby if you missed out the first time. Having one now will feel like the first time anyway! And what does it matter anyway? It would not hurt to get stocked up on supplies even if you did have one previously. No matter how many babies you decide to have, a new born coming into the world is a big deal, and he/she deserves all the attention in the world! Go ahead, have fun!posted 05/24/2004 by a BabyCenter Member
Hi I had never heard of someone having their own baby shower, doesnt a close friend of relative have it for you? As for it being not your 1st baby I dont think that really matters. Its always fun to do! And you can make use of the baby gifts. So go for it! Good Luckposted 05/24/2004 by My3Ls
Of course you can have a shower for your baby! Even if you had had showers for the other two. Just because you have given birth before doesn't mean your new baby is any less deserving. I think not having showers for second or third children indicates that they are somehow less special. Just because your baby has older siblings doesn't mean he or she should have all used stuff. You and your baby deserve celebration !posted 05/24/2004 by Gingeretta
Why wouldnt you have had a shower for your first? And who cares what number pregnancy this is. A shower is for expectant moms and their babies. I say go for the shower !!!posted 05/24/2004 by braedon1004
YES, I THINK YOU SHOULD HAVE A SHOWER FOR THIS BABY AS WELL BECAUSE EVERY BABY IS DIFFERENT AND SPECIAL. THIS IS #3 FOR ME BUT MY VERY FIRST SHOWER JUST LOTS AND LOTS OF GIFTS. YOU ARE ABOUT TO HAVE A SPECIAL DELIVERY AND THAT BABY DESERVES THE ATTENTION. EVERYBODY ARE GOING TO GIVE YOU GIFTS ANYWAY, GO FOR IT. GOOD LUCK :)posted 05/24/2004 by a BabyCenter Member
It's not appropriate to have a shower for yourself & your baby. Perhaps a friend or family member will have one for you. I didn't have a baby shower for my 1st child b/c I worked w/ a ton of men and most of my friends lived too far away to hostess a shower. Baby showers are perfectly acceptable for a 2nd or 3rd baby or more...just not when you host it yourself.posted 05/24/2004 by Irish128
Iam on baby #2 and i want another baby shower i had one with my first but when i asked my sister about it she said no you had one its my turn because she is now preagent but i thought you always get a baby shower with every baby my mom is now planning one so yes i think you should have a baby shower with every babyposted 05/24/2004 by a BabyCenter Member

Gretchen Wolf - President, Paramedic
My affiliation with Granby Ambulance began in the year 2000 when I took the Basic EMT course offered through the Association. My family had always volunteered for fire service - and as I was not interested in smoke and fire, I opted for the medical side. Being an ICU RN, I strove to provide more care then I was allowed as an EMT Basic. When GAA began the paramedic service, I took 2 weeks vacation to go to Omaha, NE for the RN to Paramedic certificate program at Creighton University. Since that time, I have been a volunteer paramedic for Granby. Over the years, I also became active in the Board of Directors serving intially as Secretary (2001-2003), then Vice President (2003-2008) and currently the President, Chief of Service.
Gregg Capps - Vice President, EMT
Nicki Ayotte - Bull - Secretary, EMT
I was a stay-at-home mom of three for about nine years when in 2006 I passed the sign on the green about the next Granby Ambulance Association EMT class. My children were 8, 5, and 3 at the time. I received my EMT certificate many years ago, but never did anything with it and decided to do it again. Kate Coupe taught my class and she was amazing. After finishing the class in February of 2007, I took the state exam on March 10th. I was hired the next month at AMR, (American Medical Response) in West Hartford, and have been volunteering in Granby and working in Hartford as an EMT ever since. I took over secretarial duties on the board last year and have been attending classes to become a registered nurse for about two years now.
Carol Brennen - Treasurer, EMT
I began my association with Granby Ambulance in 2002 when GAA renovated the ambulance building to accommodate paramedic service. At that time, I worked for the firm that was responsible for the design of the renovations as well as for the management of the construction. My responsibility was to get the interior of the building painted (and did some of the painting too). As my exposure to the GAA organization increased, my desire to join them grew. As a result, I signed up for the next EMT class given by Granby Ambulance and passed the certification exam in April of 2004. I've been volunteering for GAA ever since. In 2009, our Treasurer retired after 30 years of service to GAA. With my background in accounting, I agreed to take over as Treasurer. Now as an officer of GAA, I am looking forward to working with our board on the board's initiatives for the coming years.
Steve Johnson - Director of Operations, Paramedic
Kate Coupe - Board Member, Paramedic
I joined the Granby Ambulance Association in December 1997, two months into my EMT-B class. I always had an inclination towards medicine, between patching up my friends and having numerous pets, a family friend convinced me to enroll in his EMT class. I became certified while I was a Junior at GMHS and continued my education at Springfield College. In May 2003, I graduated as the Salutatorian of my class with a Bachelors of Science in Emergency Medical Services Management. When GAA became a paramedic level ambulance service, I was proud to be its first volunteer paramedic, and I continue to ride weekly. I have served on the Board of Directors for the last ten years, previously serving as the Vice President during the first six years of my tenure. I also served as lead instructor from 2003-2007 for the GAA EMT-B program. Outside of the GAA, I am a career crash-rescue firefighter/paramedic at Bradley Int'l Airport and an instructor for Capital Community College's EMT and Paramedic training programs. I was formerly a member of the Lost Acres Fire Dept, the East Hartland Volunteer Fire Department, and Connecticut Task Force 1 (CT-TF1) urban search and rescue team.
Dave Demchak - Board Member, At Large
Lorri DiBattisto - Board Member, At Large
Guy Hesketh - Board Member, At Large
I first became involved with the Granby Ambulance Association in the year 2000 when the Association was looking to undertake renovations of the "ambulance barn". As a partner in a civil engineering design consulting firm (F. A. Hesketh & Associates, Inc.), the Board sought my expertise in assisting with the local land use permits and consultation on related legal issues. Following the successful renovation of the ambulance facility, I was approached to serve as a board member at large in 2002 and have been serving on the Board since. I am thankful for the opportunity to serve on the Board and be a part of the valuable service GAA provides for the community. Thanks to all the volunteers who help to make the association a success.
Josh Holcombe - Board Member, EMT
Judy Jones - Board Member, At Large
I was pleased to join the Board of Directors of Granby Ambulance Association during 2010. I am a practicing attorney currently working for a national health insurance company. I have lived in Granby with my family since 2002 and have always been impressed by the full range of services offered by GAA. I look forward to helping GAA fulfill its important mission of serving the emergency medical needs of the residents of Granby and surrounding towns.

I don't want to be known for my writing or clothes.
I want to be known for my anger.
Writing just seems to be the form where examples are the simplest and situations the realest.
My frustration is the fuel which my characters face and just limiting the value of my writing to good prose is Kubrick cutting the end of A Clockwork Orange to make a shallow movie about violence.
My work is my anger and everyone's anger at ignorance at those who will limit anyone to the background.
The further work is not about love, love is the aid to get us through society which we've created, born into and have to struggle with every day.
And love is the fuel, the fuel to the anger which I have to bear for being queer and deviant.
And I am not a love story. I am not something to cry over. I am something which should make you realize if you are at a privileged position that you should make a change, if you are discriminated, that you are not alone, that we should all have this fuel and should never just be limited to love.
Because our anger is valid.
We became our anger, so that the love will not only nourish us now, but later when all is done and we are no longer deviant to a society who hates itself.
Jamie. Gay. Genderfluid. Polyamorous.

I look up. I feel my knees touch the grass. My left arm aching dragging me towards the ground. A burning flame in my throat, going down, down, down and reaching my heart as I see blurs, flashes of people hovering above me. One after another they flash their footwear digging into the ground, kicking mud into my face not on purpose.
Never on purpose.
Always on purpose.
I apologize for the delays, I've been quite busy, since it's my last ever year of school.
Shocking. I guess the thought or the feel is.
It's the last part of Mason and then we'll have the coda. I'll explain everything later.
Was that it? Was that the meaning of life?
"Can we meet again?"
"Sure, why not?"
"I can be late, mum could suspect something. She says older guys are perverted."
"I'll wait for you then."
I couldn't object as I saw her in the hallway a few minutes after her big dark green eyes looking at me with interest. The dialog was short, as I tried to convince myself to call her annoying but I simply could not. I just stared at her, at how she tucked the black hair behind her ears, revealing really small hoops which would get bigger with her age.

Case in Point: Cascade Microtech
White Paper
WHITE PAPERSponsor:Webroot Software
This case study describes how a technology company with globally dispersed locations addressed concerns about Web security. These included an increasing number of mobile workers, numerous malware infections on its network, and the legal and financial risks of employees accessing inappropriate material on the Internet. The IT manager at Cascade Microtech, Inc., tells how he initially considered appliance-based Web security but could not justify the cost and complexity of placing a box at each site, which would still not cover mobile workers. Instead, the company chose the cloud-based Webroot® Web Security Service. Even before fully deploying Webroot, the company saw its malware infections plummet from 2500 to 50, reducing workload on the IT staff. In addition, IT can now protect mobile workers while providing a service to HR that enforces Web usage policies by content categories.Download Now

Top 10 Atlanta Thrashers of All-Time
By Alexander Monaghan
The Atlanta Thrashers are no more. Atlanta, as a city, could not prove itself to be a strong enough "hockey city" and because of that sold the franchise to Winnipeg, who proved today to be a hockey town. Over their storied franchise, the Thrashers only made the playoffs once from their inaugural season in 1999 to their eventual demise in 2011. Those four fateful games would be a quick memory as the New York Rangers managed to sweep a team who could not find a way to win when it mattered most.
Laura Astorian graced us with an excellent goodbye to the Thrashers. She put her heart and soul into the effort for SB Nation Atlanta and Bird Watchers Anonymous, watching her hometown team leave because it was deemed to be not a hockey town. However, between 1999 and 2011 there were a few good players who passed through the system.
As a less sentimental goodbye to the Atlanta Thrashers, here are their Top 10 players of all time.
1. Ilya Kovalchuk — As the captain of the Thrashers during the 2009-2010 season, Kovalchuk tried to put his team on its back and get back into the playoffs. Unfortunately, it seems like whenever he tried to actually step up, his emotions get the best of him and his team failed. He refused a contract extension to remain a Thrasher for seemingly the rest of his career and was then jettisoned to the New Jersey Devils for three players and two draft picks. While with the Thrashers, he became their leading scorer of all-time, potting 328 goals and 615 points. His eight seasons in a Thrashers uniform were the most by any one player as well as he clearly became the face of the franchise. He also gave the team their only Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy, leading the League in goal scoring back in 2003-2004. Controversy and inconsistency aside, Kovalchuk will go down in the history books as the greatest Atlanta Thrasher ever.
2. Dan Snyder – As an honorary choice, Snyder gets our nod at number two due to how he tragically died back in October of 2003. As the team prepared for their season opener, they were forced to do so without their friend and teammate. His death led to Dany Heatley needing to leave Atlanta and his number 37 remains the only number to every get retired by the Thrashers. In addition, the team awarded their annual Dan Snyder Memorial Award to the player that "best embodied perseverance, dedication, and hard work without reward or recognition, so that his team and teammates might succeed."
3. Vyacheslav Kozlov — As a long-time linemate of Kovalchuk, Kozlov enjoyed seven seasons in a Thrashers uniform. He still is one of three players to score 100 in their jersey and the only player outside of Kovalchuk to post at least 400 points. When you think of Kozlov, you likely remember him for his long career in a Detroit Red Wings jersey but after that and a very brief stint with the Buffalo Sabres, Kozlov was all Thrasher, which made his benching/exile last year all the more hurtful.
4. Dany Heatley — Heater gets in at number four basically only because he was a high-end talent that the team grew on their own. His three short seasons with the team, which rendered him an All-Star MVP and a Calder Memorial Trophy winner, puts him in the top five in nearly every offensive category. His reign as a Thrasher will always be memorable whether good or bad, which gives him a slight edge over the player he was traded for.
5. Marian Hossa – Keep in mind the only season the Thrashers actually did make the playoffs, came with Hossa adding supplementary scoring to Kovalchuk. That season the team actually worked incredibly hard, earning the Southeast Division title. Hossa was the third player to ever score 100 goals in an Atlanta Thrashers uniform as he sits third in their all-time points leaders with 248 points in only 222 games.
6. Tobias Enstrom — Similar to Heatley, Enstrom gets a bump up the list since he is a homegrown talent. Unlike Heatley, he is only one of two players to actually remain active members of the team. Last season, the diminutive blue liner surpassed Hossa for the third-most assists in team history. His creativity with the puck put him on the top pairing and top PP unit when Kovalchuk was on the team. His intelligence with the puck and playmaking ability kept him there after the captain left. The team in Winnipeg received a very special player in Enstrom.
7. Eric Boulton — A sentimental choice Boulton is selected for his work dropping the gloves. His 639 PIM ranks first amongst every player as he spent six seasons in a Thrasher sweater. He is the only other member of last season's Thrashers to make the list as he gets honored for the many shots to the face he took. Don't believe me? Click here.
8. Kari Lehtonen — With bad years come bad goalies and Lehtonen just so happened to be the best of them. His 204 games played ranked first amongst Thrashers' goalies as they experienced a plethora of below average to mediocre netminders like Ondrej Pavelec, Johan Hedberg, Milan Hlinicka and Pasi Nurminen. Lehtonen for the majority of his time in Atlanta was known as the "goalie of the future" but he never got a chance to prove that due to injuries. Even in their four playoff games, Lehtonen was relegated to the bench in favor of Hedberg due to his inconsistent play.
9. Marc Savard – Savard was mostly known as Kovalchuk's playmaking center but he did a good deal of damage over those three years posting 63 goals and 196 points in only 184 games. Of the 31 players to dress in at least 164 games, Savard was only one of three to score at least a point-per-game. After a career-high 97 points with the Thrashers, he would opt for free agency and become a Boston Bruin, where he remains (sidelined) to this day.
10. Kelly Buchberger – He may have only played 68 games in the Atlanta Thrashers sweater but he also wore the C for the first time. With so many players on the bubble, we thought it right to mention the first choice to lead this expansion team.
Honorable Mention: Ray Ferraro, Patrick Stefan, Bryan Little, Jim Slater, Garnet Exelby, Shawn McEachern, Steve Staios, Scott Melanby, Bobby Holik, Andrew Ladd, Dustin Byfuglien, Jeff Odgers, Chris Tamer, Chris Thorburn, Niclas Havelid, Rich Peverley, Frantisek Kaberle, Todd White, Andy Sutton, JP Vigier, Yannick Tremblay

House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed, 1 Bath, (Accommodates a max of 7)
Enjoy one of the South's most beautiful lakes while staying in our lakefront rental, The Lighthouse. The Lighthouse is a second floor dwelling that has two levels. On the main level are the living room, which has a 12 foot glass door lending a nice lake view, and a big screen TV; a well-stocked kitchen with a dishwasher, refrigerator with ice maker, and microwave; one bedroom with a TV and king-size bed; one bedroom with a queen-size bed; and a split bath with a whirlpool tub. There is a pull-out single bed in the living room. A washer/dryer room is just outside the bathroom.
Upstairs you will find our 'lighthouse,' an octagon-shaped room with ample windows for a spectacular panoramic view of the lake. Also on this level is a children's room with twin beds, a TV and DVD player, a lego table, books, and games.
The Lighthouse boasts approximately 1350 square feet of living space and also has a deck with glass 'rails' which give an unobstructed view of the lake. The deck is equipped with a gas grill, table, chairs, and umbrella.
The Lighthouse is adjacent to our home. We have a large dock for your private use, complete with chairs, lounge chairs, table, umbrella, small refrigerator, ladder and a covered boat slip.

It's that time of the year again: when the golf world descends upon Augusta for the Masters and the "Will Augusta National ever admit a female member?" debate comes to the forefront. The issue is of particular interest this year with Virginia Rometty taking over IBM as president and CEO in January. The previous four IBM heads — all male — have been extended invitations to join the club.
So when Augusta National chairman Billy Payne took the podium at his annual news conference on Wednesday, it was inevitable for the topic to be addressed. And when that question finally came, Payne delivered an elaborate answer:
"As has been the case whenever that question is asked, all issues of membership are now and have been historically subject to the private deliberations of the members. That statement remains accurate and that remains my statement."
A simple "no comment" would have been fine, but okay.
That wasn't it, though. As you see in the above video, Payne's non-commitment to admitting a female member seemed to open the floodgates for other reporters to pressure him. [Read more...]

Yup, I can't say challenge modes thrill me either. They strike me as a throw back to vanilla and BC where people would only take certain class combinations to instances. I fully expect to see ppl setting up a run and not wanting to take a specific class, or wanting a specific class for a particularly ability. I hated it at the time, and I dont' want to see it back in the game.
It also seems to me to be something that people will take extremely seriously - which isn't a bad thing but I tend to avoid things that people take extremely seriously in case I screw up and wreck the whole thing for them.

By Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) - A beating of a homeless man - one that began with a hard right-hand punch caught on videotape - has two police officers in hot water.
The New York Police Department's internal affairs unit and the Brooklyn district attorney's office were investigating the allegation of excessive force inside a Jewish community center in Brooklyn, authorities said Tuesday.
The NYPD opened its probe on Monday after being alerted to the clip from a security camera showing one of the officers repeatedly punching Ehud Halevy, 21, during an arrest on Oct. 8, department spokesman Paul Browne said.
Meanwhile, elected officials have demanded the department fire the officers, identified in court papers as Luis Vega and Yelena Bruzzese.
City Councilman David Greenfield of Brooklyn called the alleged beatdown "insane." And Councilman Jumaane Williams, also of Brooklyn, branded it "another low for the abuse of police power."
The incident began after the two officers responded to a call of a dispute between a security guard and a man, Halevy, inside the outreach center at the Aliya Institute in Crown Heights. It's unclear what the dispute was about, but the synagogue has since said that Halevy was sleeping in a back room and had permission to be there.
In the audio-less video, the officers confront Halevy, shirtless and wearing sweatpants, and appear to order him to leave a room furnished with a couple couches and a pool table. A long argument ensues before the officers start to try to handcuff the man.
Halevy appears to push away Vega, who drops into a boxer's stance and lands the hard right that knocks Halevy onto 1 of the couches. As Halevy continues to put up a struggle, Vega pummels him and Bruzzese appears to hit him with a baton before he's finally subdued.
Halevy was arrested on charges of assault - based on the officers' claim he attacked them - resisting arrest, trespassing and other minor charges. The Brooklyn DA's office declined to comment Tuesday when asked if the case against him would be dropped.

October blooms
The roses have a final fling in the fall. The first one is the colorful David Austin rose "Pat Austin"
"Gartendirektor Otto Linne" is a wonderful shrub rose
This little miniature came from our first garden, almost fifteen years ago. It is called "Rise-N-Shine"
This is a hybrid musk rose called "Prosperity"
You can always depend on coleus for a strong splash of color
The sasanqua camellias are just beginning to bloom. This one is "Hana Jiman"
I love Mexican Bush Sage
And what would fall be without chrysanthemums?

Phillip-- the roses are so beautiful! I wish I didn't have a deer problem. I must ask you about the photo across the top of your blog. Is that your home garden? The best I can do is describe it as enchanting! Cameron

I really do like all your pictures and blooms but the coleus and birdhouse really stand out to me!

Those roses are glorious. I like the yellow ones best.

Cameron, that photo is my garden. It was taken a few years ago so it looks a little different now.

- Annie in Austin said...
Yellow roses have always been 'our flower' so they get to me emotionally, Phillip - but Pat Austin and all of your roses are just as beautiful.
Your sasanqua is already blooming? I think mine started around Thanksgiving in other years, but this year - who knows!
We had a little rain today - sure hope some will come your way soon.

What I wouldn't do for a rose garden like yours.
Your October blooms are just wonderful. I'm a big fan of coleus , too as it endures from early summer until late Fall with its gorgeous color.

Fantastic roses Phillip! I love them all. Is your Salvia Leucantha hardy in your garden? I am hoping to keep mine but not sure if I can give it enough protection all winter! Any suggestions Gail

The roses look great Phillip! we only have one in our yard but the fragrance when it's blooming is strong. The sage is a cool plant too!

- Roses and Lilacs said...
Great photo of Pat Austin, she's one of my favorites. I tried growing the Mexican brush sage a few years back. I guess we just don't have a long enough season. It frosted before it had a chance to bloom. The bird house sure is cute in that pot.
- October 16, 2008 at 10:59 AM
- Frances said...
Hi Phillip, your garden remains at the top of the list of gardens I would like to see in person. Just the roses and how they love it there are quite a draw. It seems so English cottage, would you describe it in that way? You have achieved my dream.
- October 16, 2008 at 12:13 PM
- Jeff said...
We're dry here, too, Phillip, and I second your vote on Salvia leucantha - what a great plant! Everything looks great, as usual.
- October 16, 2008 at 12:34 PM
- Sarah Laurence said...
Phillip, I'm trying to decide if your roses or the photos themselves are the most beautiful. I love the birdhouse photo too. It must be so nice having a long blooming season in the south.I wish I could send today's rain your way - we have mud in Maine. It's fun to peak back in your garden for GBBD.

- Wicked Gardener said...
bronte76Those roses are really pretty. I don't think they like me. I get a bloom here and there, but nothing like you have. Regarding the gingers: mine didn't bloom the first year, bloomed a bit last year, and are going gang-busters this year. Give it another season.
- October 16, 2008 at 7:38 PM
- Bonnie said...
Gorgeous. Your roses are always so beautiful and unusual colors. Do you love growing David Austin roses- do they do much better than others? My dad is a fan of their too but I have never had one.
- October 16, 2008 at 8:43 PM
- Cosmo said...
The roses are incredible, Phillip--and how tall is that birdhouse (in other words, how tall are those coleus?) I think I like fall almost as much as spring.
- October 17, 2008 at 12:37 AM
- Layanee said...
Your roses are divine and, I have to agree with Skeeter, love the birdhouse and coleus picture.

You have an incredible collection of flowers. The roses are stunning, especially the 'Pat Austin'.
- October 18, 2008 at 1:50 PM
- Phillip said...
Bonnie, I don't have too many of the Austin roses. I think there are more that do not do as well here in the South as those that do. I only try to grow the ones that have been tried and true in the south.
Cosmo, the birdhouse is only about 2 feet high. It is just stuck inside the flower pot.
- October 19, 2008 at 10:23 PM
- Les, Zone 8a said...
Pat is the only Austin I have, and that is because it was free. I think they definately do not live up to their reputation at least in the South. This is a shame because when they are in bloom I love the fragrance and their old rose look.

I love all the small roses!

Very beautiful roses, Phillip, and wonderful photos. 'Pat Austin' is a glorious color! That final fling is so welcome just before the cold sets in.
The birdhouse and coleus picture has won all our hearts :) It's a beauty.
Coleus looks good next to just about anything, doesn't it?
You certainly have a wonderful garden and great October blooms.
I'm glad you've had some good rain. That should make your garden very happy.

CALERA, OK--- A semi truck traveling northbound on Highway 75 flipped on its side this afternoon in Calera. It happened around 3 p.m. Calera police said the driver lost control of the wheel and drove across southbound lanes of traffic before landing in a ditch.
They said he clipped two vans on the way, one traveling North and one traveling South. Luckily, they said no one was seriously hurt.
Police said the driver of the semi said he doesn't know how he lost control of the wheel. The accident slowed traffic for more than an hour.

Updated OECD Better Life index
The OECD's Better Life Index which debuted last year to much fanfare has been updated with some great new features by Moritz Stefaner.
The concept and beauty of the original piece remain intact. However, the experience is made better by the ability to compare to different demographics. For instance, after I adjust my Better Life settings, I can see how my settings compare to other women my age in the US, or to French men. It's fun to compare to different people around the world and watch the flowers readjust themselves to the various comparisons. It invokes a sense of global community and humanity.
It also has better sharing. It offers the usual suspects, plus you can embed your index on your site. Equality between men and women is always a big issue, so that's addressed in the new version as well. You can select to see the split, and it also shows both gender and social inequality per indicator when you drill down to the specific country level.
This is an excellent update to an already great tool. I'm glad the OECD sees the value and continues to invest in it.

It was a great piece when it came out, it's great now.
I am somewhat unclear what the men/women ranking on the main page actually represents.
It would also be nice to see things like religious tolerance, LGBT issues, and other related issues covered in the future.
It was indeed down, but the site is up and running now.
I agree the visualization is pretty and the interaction is user-friendly, but I find it quite hard to read. The "flowers" make it difficult to compare the heights…

SAP has been recognised as a leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Marketing Resource Management (MRM). Vendors were assessed based on their ability to support each of the 5 MRM competency areas: 1) strategic planning and financial management 2) creative production management 3) digital asset, content, and knowledge management 4) marketing fulfillment and 5) MRM analytics. Check out the full report for details.
In the first part of this blog, I had been looking at marketing data housed in different data silos as one of the key pain points for marketers who want to establish a powerful customer segmentation practice. In this continuation of that theme, I would like to cover why it is so difficult to derive insights from the data once you hold it in your hands...
For most marketing and sales organisations, one of the biggest barriers to sustainable growth is also the very source of revenue: creating and maintaining profitable, long-term relationships with key customers. With budgets tight, what are the best process and technology investments that will yield the strongest results? Learn what Aberdeen uncovered.
One of the top challenges facing companies with Customer Experience Management initiatives is integrating customer insights with existing business activities, like marketing. This research reveals that companies using SAP software are more likely to use analytics as part of the sales, marketing, and service activities. Find out how these companies compare to their peers.

Back in the Saddle (Sort Of)
Against my better judgment, last week I decided to sign up for this weekend's Big Sur Half-Marathon on Monterey Bay. Normally, this is right up my alley – a long distance road race through spectacular scenery, testing the limits of my fitness.
This year, however, will be different. I'm not nearly in good enough shape to attempt this race.
My two primary races of the year were August's Pikes Peak Marathon, which took me 6 hours to complete, and October's Firetrails 50, my first 50-miler, which took almost 9 hours. Training for these races entailed a lot of long, steady distance running, but almost no speed work.
As a result, my body is very accustomed to a slow pace, multiple walking breaks, and negotiating steep hills over treacherous terrain. On the other hand, my fast twitch muscle fibers have long since gone into hibernation.
So last week, I tried to wake them up.
On Thursday I showed up for my first track workout in months, and ran 5x1000m. On Saturday, I did a 4-mile tempo run as close to my lactate threshold as I could tolerate.
Both workouts felt miserable. But as I was laboring through them, I had a similar thought each day: I missed this.
There's an entirely different dynamic to running when you are pushing the limits of your engine, struggling to keep pace with fellow runners when your natural inclination is to slow down. Compared to training for ultras, it's really a whole different sport.
Although I love the ultras, I'm not quite ready to give up the road racing yet.
Sunday's race will definitely be difficult and painful – both in a physical sense (dealing with the shortness of breath in my chest and lactic acid in my legs) and an emotional one (watching countless runners that I beat last year pass me by).
But despite the difficulty, I already know what my overriding sentiment for the day will be: I missed this.
Then I'll spend the winter on the roads, building up to the high mileage weeks, and come back ready to roar in the springtime.

This time of year can be one of the busiest for the Salvation Army. That's because they provide school age kids with what they need for class.
But in order to give help; they need help. Back to school means only one thing; the school supply list.
That list can be pretty long and add up quick. That's where the Salvation Army comes in. "In this economy, everybody could use a hand up," said Salvation Army Captain Doug McClure.
Target and Salvation Army gave kids $80 gift cards, to buy supplies. "This is such a blessing. Times are so hard and this economy is crazy," said Grandmother Patricia Jones.
She brought her two grand daughters out, so they could be ready for the first day of school. "I'm a grandmother and my daughter is a single mother. I try to help her any way I can," said Jones.
Besides without the right tools, there might be even more children left behind. "You need those things to do your work," said 7th grader Devin Kight.
If you would like to donate call the Salvation Army at (229) 435-1428.

Announcing Dubai's next big business venture in...
The Kurdistan region of Iraq offers UAE-based companies a gateway to business opportunities in oil and gas, construction, real estate and tourism in the rest of the country, a study recently commissioned by Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry shows.
Details of the report, compiled by the Economist Intelligence Unit, are released as a delegation of high-profile UAE business leaders leave for Kurdistan on a trade mission organised by the Dubai Chamber.
According to the report, Iraq has become one of the UAE's key trade partners and is the second largest market for re-exports. UAE statistics estimate the total trade for 2012 to have reached over $8 billion.
Bilateral trade has been boosted by the launch of Emirates Sky Cargo's freight flights from Dubai to Basra, which supply equipment for oil companies and key foodstuffs, the report states.
Iraq will be one of the world's fastest-growing economies over the next five years, but like many frontier markets there are challenges to this sustainability.
Its main economy driver is oil, which accounts for 65 per cent of GDP and 89 per cent of government revenue. Oil production has surpassed 2003 levels and the country remains relatively unexplored. However, it is likely that ambitious targets to triple production by 2020 will be scaled down. Meanwhile, poor transport, storage and export infrastructure will curtail plans to boost production, according to the report.
Opportunities for business and investment also exist across a number of other industry sectors, including those which UAE-based businesses have significant expertise, like construction, real estate and tourism.
For UAE businesses, the Kurdistan region of Iraq offers a more stable base and gateway to the rest of the country. According to the report, Kurdistan is more open than elsewhere in the country and the regional government is actively promoting foreign interest.
The region's economic growth is robust and led by public sector expenditure and investment in oil and gas. The UAE's involvement in the region has grown in recent years, led by construction and logistics. The province of Erbil is particularly strong in real estate and has witnessed rapid growth and a real estate boom, earning it the title of the 'Dubai of Iraq'. It is hoped that Erbil will become a regional hub, with growth being driven by its airport which opened in 2010, according to the report.
Figures quoted in the report state that imports account for 85 per cent of the Kurdistan region's total trade. With a booming construction market and rising disposable incomes, demand for basic materials and consumer goods is rising rapidly.
According to the report, the strengths of the Kurdistan region include stability, improving infrastructure and logistics, a positive attitude to FDI and strong trade links with Turkey, while opportunities are being driven through the huge demand across all sectors, stable gateway to the larger Iraq market, Free Trade Zones and new focus on tourism and agriculture.
In the non-oil sectors, most investment has been focused on housing and rebuilding the dilapidated infrastructure. Authorities are now turning their attention to new sectors, primarily agriculture, light industry and tourism, the report stated.
The boom in housing construction has been led by Turkey and Lebanon. However, the UAE company Trojan Construction is currently engaged in a three-year housing project.
Other UAE companies that are active across a number of different sectors in Kurdistan include Dana Gas, Rotana, Majid Al Futtaim, and Abu Dhabi National Energy Company (Taqa), the report stated.
In terms of other opportunities, banking is starting to see proliferation with foreign banks, primarily from Turkey and Lebanon, starting to move into the market. HSBC and Standard Chartered have also invested, according to the report.
Industry accounts for 22 per cent of the region's GDP and is led by the oil and gas sector. However, low-end manufacturing, such as bottling plants and construction materials, has attracted investors such as Pepsi Cola.
Meanwhile, tourism and travel account for 19 per cent of GDP. In 2010, 1.3 million people visited the region, with 20,000 of this number from outside Iraq. Western visitors come primarily for business, but Kurdistan's picturesque mountains attract tourists from Iran and Turkey.

By now, you all know the rules, but here's a one phrase recap: New studio records only. Also, like a classic Spinal Tap joke, I went to eleven this year. What can I say, I couldn't narrow it down farther from that. It happens. Let's get started.
First off, I really don't have a 'Little Band That Could' award to give out this year, though I am coming around on Bronze Honey. I just haven't had a chance to really dig into it and see what I think. So hold that thought, you may see something more in January.
So in lieu of that, I'm hanging out my first annual Best Non-Metal Album of the Year award, which may or may not become an annual thing. Anyway, I'm handing it out to The Tossers – "Emerald City" from Victory Records. If you think Dropkick Murphys sold out and Flogging Molly is a bunch of hacks, try this on for size. After waiting for years, The Tossers put all the puzzle pieces in place and really produced a blockbuster effort. This album is a great listen, full of heart, wit and toasts to toasts. Try it out.
Okay, on to the standard stuff: Honorable Mentions. As ever, lots of potential honorable mentions this year, but there's two in particular I want to single out. Mothership and Battlecross couldn't be more different as bands, but both excelled in 2013. Battlecross for the furious strength of singles like "Flesh and Bone." Mothership for crafting a wonderful, spot-on homage to the big riffs of days gone by. Plus, their dad is in the band. Bonus! Nicely done by each band.

Great! I made this as a side and it was as good as the main. I would advise this if you love beans. The jalapeno was great. I only used 1/4th of what they said to use, but it still left my lips a little tingly! Great dish. Quick!

The Venetian Macao has a tradition of turning heads and being recognised as a world market leader in the leisure and gaming industry. The integrated resort has once more raised the bar in operational excellence by signing up with the EarthCheck environmental program. By working with EarthCheck, The Venetian Macao has committed to reducing its environmental footprint and to demonstrating best practices in sustainable operations.
Nothing at The Venetian Macao is done half-heartedly. At the centre of the world's largest gaming market, The Venetian Macao is the largest single structure hotel building in Asia, the sixth-largest building in the world by area and the largest casino in the world.
With more than 15,000 staff and over 100,000 visitors a day, The Venetian Macao recognises that by working closely with EarthCheck, it can reduce operational costs, improve energy efficiency and lower its environmental footprint.
"Environmental sustainability is part of our corporate commitment to responsible business," says Mike Naylor, Vice President of Facilities Management for The Venetian Macao. "Our vision is to be a leader in sustainability in our marketplace; EarthCheck allows us to effectively measure our sustainability outcomes against an industry recognised baseline and best practice levels, and to take proactive measures to minimise our carbon footprint."
The company has opened up multiple sectors to be benchmarked by EarthCheck including its hotel, retail outlets, exhibition space and conferencing areas. This will enable the team to report carbon per guest night or square metre and water use per visitor. "Not only does this system enable us to compare our current sustainability progress and success against other world leaders with our own branded "Sands ECO 360" sustainability program, but it also provides a framework for us to continue to push the envelope when it comes to the improvement of the sustainability performance of our building assets," says Naylor.
With plans to operate multiple interconnected, integrated resorts, containing over 20,000 hotel rooms, approximately 1.6 million square feet of MICE space, over two million square feet of retail malls, six theatres and other amenities, the task of reducing the use of energy, waste and water makes good business sense for parent company Las Vegas Sands Corp.
Over the past year, EarthCheck has helped more than 1,300 organisations in over 70 countries to reduce their consumption of natural resources. The EarthCheck certification program is independently audited and helps clients meet the environmental requirements associated with preferred supplier agreements.
"The Venetian Macao has recognised that by working with EarthCheck they will achieve long-lasting financial and strategic benefits," says EarthCheck CEO, Stewart Moore. "The EarthCheck Standard will help them address risk, meet future reporting compliance requirements and map the company's carbon footprint."
Many of the benefits of sustainable operations go well beyond the bottom line. Good environmental and social practice is increasingly being seen as an essential part of sound corporate governance. That's because sustainable practices help reduce risk, manage environmental impacts, and position the company strongly when it comes to securing MICE events.
"Our shareholders and customers expect this type of forward-thinking and product innovation from us," Naylor says. "We want to demonstrate how easy it can be for the industry in Macao to follow suit."
Similar to the "Spa" indicator project, launched in 2008 with Six Senses, The Venetian Macao will also be working with the EarthCheck Research Institute to set a new EarthCheck Benchmark for the gaming industry under the title of "Casino Operations." This will create significant opportunity for parent company Las Vegas Sands Corp.

A 4 night stay last week was most enjoyable. We had a large and comfortable corner room with a very comfortable king size bed. Also we ate in the dining room several times. The breakfast and lunch buffet had plenty of choices foe any taste. Also had dinner with friends in the dining room and even when we stayed to visit, we were not rushed. The Pub needs to be redecorated, but food was good and service was great. Thank you

We met up at this hotel with family from Quebec City. Our rooms were spacious and clean and the beds were very comfortable. The staff in the dining room, pub and at the reception desk were most courteous, goof natured and helpful. The location is close to all major attractions, restaurants etc...I would recommend this Hotel.

Modern day propaganda
While searching for ex-Yu propaganda posters, I couldn't help but wonder-...
Are we nowdays subject to more subtile form of propaganda?
Is it coming from corporations or governments, or can we even make a difference between the two?
Where in the World are the people more influenced by it?
Is it the "free" West, or communist countries, or maybe states with non secular governments?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Aug 24 2012: Propaganda nowadays is being initiated on all levels. Be it governments, corporations, and even individuals.
The boundaries between all these sources are blurring as their business models evolve and interact with one another, thus making it much difficult to reveal the true source, with all the beneficiaries lurking around.
There is no geographical heat mapping to where people are most influenced by propaganda. And unfortunately education level is not really a good indicator either. They need to have a new KPI, which is called cognitive reasoning. Maybe then we can assess the situation better.
Propaganda exist both in the "free" countries as well as in "other" countries, just in different form. And I believe there isnt much of a different about the amount of people being influenced in either "worlds". Clever and successful propaganda adjust itself and its subtlety according to the subjects and context involved.
Aug 25 2012: I could not agree more. I've seen many of my well educated ivy league friends with narrow mindedness that have bewildered me.
I will not blame the education system (as i've witnessed bigotry in all shapes and form, spanning from illiterates to PHD candidates).
My bet is on the upbringing of that person and the environment around him. Cognitive and rational thinking could never be overrated while growing up.

Eau Claire (WQOW) - This year will mark the 50th anniversary of the death of President John F. Kennedy.
And next month, a concert will be held in his honor at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. Five choirs from around the country, including UW-Eau Claire's concert choir, will perform.
"For the students who are going to be a part of something of that nature, doing two premier works on our nation's concert stage will be a wonderful musical experience for them and for all of us," Dr. Gary Schwartzhoff, choir conductor.
If you would like to catch the Master Singers, they will be performing on April 7th at the First Congregational Church in Eau Claire. It starts at 2:00 PM.
