The American economy has not come back fast enough not because President Obama is a radical "socialist" with "big government" policies creating "uncertainty" that has smothered the corporate sector. Obama's failure is that he has not done enough to create jobs and pump government money into the system to boost demand. Obama has not been bold enough for what the country actually needs. Americans want a real plan to turn around the economy and put them back to work, not half-hearted attempts at compromise with a party devoted to economic sabotage. http://www.sunstateactivist.org
8:17 it's a wonder the wsj doesn't charge you for advertising space with your constant peddling of your lame blog. wanna-be pundits with sophomoric ideas are already well represented on all the major networks – the majority of Americans are fed up with socialist overload, including the late night talk show hosts who are each day losing their entertainment value due to their constant spewing of the democrat propaganda. sun state activist…legend in his/her own mind.
8:17 you are so close. Rewrite your posting but take out the word "not" after the first instance. He has done enough, he is a socialist and he has wasted more than enough money (our children's childrens' money). The problem is that liberalism doesn't work. Tax people who work to pay people who don't? Foolishness. Now go peddle your blog elsewhere.
Anyone who calls Obama a socialist has no credibility (or grasp on reality) whatsoever.
"Tax people who work to pay people who don't?"
If this is your definition of liberalism, Reagan is more of a liberal than Obama since taxes on the rich were higher during both of his terms. Never mind that though. It's clear to most thinking people that it doesn't matter what Reagan "did," you all have political amnesia and seem to believe (maybe it was the cowboy hat?) that he was a "real conservative."
You want to know who gave illegals free health care? How about who essentially made free health care a right for every person in the country?
11:25 welfare virtually ceased to exist after regan took office, but obama and other dems before him have resurrected the old model of giving things to people who don't earn them. how can we ever expect people to work when they know they can just rely on the government giving them stuff by means of taking it from others? obama is the personification of socialism.
Socialism? Please get real!
"welfare virtually ceased to exist after regan took office" 1:08 pm
Where? In fantasyland?
The mythical Reagan continues to be much more powerful than the reality Reagan.
People are out of work because of a decades-long collapse of the manufacturing base and myriad other reasons. NOT because they're lazy.
When did right-wing reactionaries start holding working people in such utter contempt?
"We're going to close the unproductive tax loopholes that allow some of the truly wealthy to avoid paying their fair share. In theory, some of those loopholes were understandable, but in practice they sometimes made it possible for millionaires to pay nothing, while a bus driver was paying ten percent of his salary, and that's crazy. Do you think the millionaire ought to pay more in taxes than the bus driver or less?"
– President Ronald Reagan, June 1985
He sounds a lot like President Obama, doesn't he.
We have two choices in America, freedom or Obama's new world order chicago style union thug fascist marxism. Which will you choose?
Neocon parrots (@2:26pm) is using a classic logical fallacy — you only have two choices. And only neocon parrots gets to frame your only two choices.
In addition, one choice is "freedom" and the other choice all the John Bircher dog-whistles — new world order, union thug, fascism, marxism.
The GOP was once a very intelligent party. Then they set upon the Southern Strategy. Sad.
President Obama will be reelected.
1:21 hey retard, it's the republicans who want to get rid of tax loopholes. obama has rejected that solution and instead wants to tax the 1%, those with incomes starting at just over 200K – you know, the filthy rich, at a higher rate.
You're so uninformed you don't even know what it is you don't know.
Keep watching FOX.
12:34 I got you, didn't I? You can't deny that it is the republicans that want to get rid of the tax loopholes, so your innuendo suggests that I'm wrong, even when I'm right. Liberal liars.
Republicans have steadfastly opposed the closing of any loopholes on the grounds that its a tax increase. Look it up.
You're in the ignorance cult, you should know that. Reagan couldn't get nominated in today's GOP.

Maybe someday I'll stop making wardrobe mistakes. But when I gaze into my closet, I often wonder who chose these clothes. What look was she going for? Agent 99 from "Get Smart"? I should shop with a note pinned to my chest: "Do not sell this person another: trench coat, pair of jeans, or black turtleneck."
Actually, I shouldn't go anywhere near a store. Buying new clothes seems like the thing to do only when you've got nothing to wear. But, then again, maybe not. With the high-stakes fall-fashion season upon us, and with apparel sales rising, I conducted rack-side interviews around the city, heard woeful sagas of bad shopping habits and various personal theories about why so many keep repeating the same mistakes. But one thing seems clear: Friends shouldn't let friends shop — they should stage interventions.

A Community prayer vigil will be held at Community Clubhouse in Crisp County on Sunday, September 14,2014 at 7pm.
By Wainwright Jeffers - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) - A South Georgia dealership was forced to stop selling cars in Dougherty County on Thursday.
The Sheriff's Office got complaints that Interstate Nissan from Tifton was breaking state law by having a tent sale in Dougherty County.
The dealership is upset, customers are disappointed, and the sheriff's office says they're just doing their job.
Cory Mac and his mom came to the Million Dollar Automotive Disposal with the flyer in hand.
"I'm trying to find a car since I'm about to graduate, I'm looking for a Maxima or Altima," said Mac.
It was suppose to be a graduation gift, but the dealership's sale which was suppose to take place for the next four days was shut down.
"We received numerous complaints from local dealerships," said Capt. Craig Dodd, Dougherty County Sheriff's Office.
The Sheriff's Office got complaints that a section of state law was broken when Interstate Nissan set up a temporary lot at Sam's Club.
"They cannot have a temporary sale anywhere outside of their permanent county or an adjoining county to theirs," said Dodd.
"We called the state and went through every policy," said Shane Brown.
Brown is the General Sales Manager and business director for Interstate Nissan.
"We asked the state exactly what to do what policies to go by, but there was a little loop hole they did not tell us until we just got notified by the sheriff's office," said Brown.
There were dozens of prospective buyers on the lot Thursday afternoon; the dealership says they are now out tens of thousands of dollars, not counting profit they had hoped to make.
"We sent out 50,000 to 60,000 piece mailers, our permits, everything we bought to set this up, all the excitement of people thinking they're going to get a good deal is gone," said Brown.
The Sheriff's Office says they're just following state law by asking that managers cease and desist.
"There were no intentions by anyone to make violations about the law," said Dodd.
"The local dealers got together and found a little loop hole stating you cannot sell vehicles more than two counties away, everybody is upset about this," said Brown.
Cory Mac is disappointed but is willing to drive to Tifton to buy his car.
"They said they would give us a free gas card if we go to Tifton and look at them," said Mac.
"If the dealerships had been taking care of the customers in Albany we would not have been invited," said Brown.
Thursday afternoon the dealership got drivers to come in and help move out the vehicles.
Interstate Nissan says all the deals they advertised at the tent sale are still available at the Tifton location.

The influence of such confinement will be discussed for pores of simple geometry for adsorption and phase transitions, with emphasis on freezing and melting. Both experimental and molecular simulation results will be presented; the results show qualitative agreement. Examples of the effects of confinement on reaction equilibria and reaction rates will also be discussed for simple geometries. Finally, some recent attempts to develop more realistic molecular models of disordered nano-porous materials will be described. Among the methods used to achieve this are mimetic simulation techniques, in which simulation protocols are developed to describe the synthesis of the material, and reconstruction methods which seek to construct models which match the experimental structural data.

I love this time of year. Summer has just started, Kegger Season is under way, and it's Festival Concert Season. I love photographing any concert, but festivals are the best. Last year I was able to shoot the Vans Warped Tour for the first time and had a blast – you can look back at that post here if you want. This year Warped hit the Pomona Fairplex for two days, last Thursday and Friday, with 9 stages, and more bands than I am willing to count. But in the list was a great selection of metalcore bands, so  I decided to shoot the Thursday show.
Warped is different than most other festival concerts. The crowd is younger, and most of the bands are often less well known. Don't get me wrong… most of the bands that headline Warped have huge followings, but they haven't reached that Metallica level – yet. A few of the bands are virtual unknowns before they play warped. THAT is what I love about it. This is a very fun day for a lot of reasons, but these bands are hungry and they show it. The entire day is non-stop performance.
Memphis May Fire
The first band  I shot was Memphis May Fire. An American metalcore band from Texas, this was a great start to the day.
We Came As Romans
Next up was We Came As Romans, another Metalcore act. I enjoyed these guys a lot, and they were great to photograph.
You may notice that in the shot above, where lead singer Kyle Pavone is in the crowd, there is a GoPro camera being held up over the crowd. I would normally remove that thing in Photoshop, and it would make a much better image if I did. This time, I left it in there in all it's glory. Why? One of the interesting things about Warped Tour is the number of younger beginning photographers in the photo pit. It can be a pain at times to have to shoot a concert with a lot of people that have no idea how to act in a photo pit. At Warped that can happen very often, and it is usually by someone in the pit with a Cell Phone or Point 'n Shoot camera.
But, that is also what makes Warped so cool. Everyone has to start somewhere, and shooting bands that are so popular to a college crowd, and so active, is a great place to start. Sure, sometimes someone makes a "mistake" – I have many shots that could have been keepers if not for the camera someone held up high over their head when they were actually in the front of the pit – but someone will usually say something and they learn.
The next band was a huge surprise. I had heard about Crossfaith before the concert through an email from their PR firm. It said:
"Unique in their home country of Japan, CROSSFAITH combine metal, hardcore, samples and electronica to create groundbreaking music that transcends genres."
Wait a minute… Metal, Hardcore and Electronica…. in the same band? My first reaction was that I was curious, my second thought was that it won't actually work.
The day of the concert I forgot about wanting to see them, and I was in the pit at another stage, when the person I was with yelled "Crossfaith is on in 10 minutes". We bolted across the place to the stage they were at and man… I am glad I did. That band nailed it. Pure adrenaline and action from start to finish.
I know the mix may sound odd, but I can't wait to shoot these guys again. I could a photo post just on them. And the song Jagerbomb.. well, the title says it all. I left that stage thinking I had seen the nest of the day.
I admit it, I had not heard Letlive before. The guy I was with said they would be a good shoot. Holy crap. Letlive may be the craziest band I have ever seen on stage. They are just plan crazy. Good, but wow. He wrapped himself in a carpet, knocked down guitar amps, rolled on the floor, and ended up at on point with a mic cord around his neck. Just another day on the job.
I am only posting 2 of my images from the Letlive set here, there are more at the end of the post from another photographer.
August Burns Red
One of the big draws this year is August Burns Red. This band has a huge following, and I can see why. If you like metalcore, you will like these guys.
Two of my favorite shots of the day are the shot above, and the Black n White shot below, of lead vocalist Jake Luhrs.
Sleeping With Sirens
I am only including one of my Sleeping With Sirens shots here, because I will have some more SWS shots at the end. Wikipedia describes them as a "post-hardcore band from Orlando". I have be honest, sometimes the classifications get stupid. It's good hard rock.
Middle Finger Salute
I had no plans to shoot these guys, but the guy above was yelling at people to stop and listen. I kinda liked that. He demanded attention, and he got mine. Middle Finger Salute is an English punk rock band. This day, the singer Adam Marsden was not on the stage. He decide to play from the walkway.
These guys are perfect examples of why I like the Warped Tour, bands that will demand your attention.
Oh, Sleeper
Next up… Oh, Sleeper. According to Wikipedia, this is an "American Christian metalcore band" from Texas. Hmmm. I did not notice the Christian part, but metalcore? Hell yeah.
By this time it was getting late in the day, and the sun was great for photos. Really fun band to shoot.
Bring Me The Horizon
Another British band, Bring Me The Horizon is of the metalcore style. This was the band that wrapped up the day for me, and I got some great shots. More shots in a bit.
The Crowd
One of the things that makes The Vans Warped Tour what it is is the crowd. They are passionate as hell, and are there to have fun. I have been kicked a few times as people crowd surf toward the photo pit, where security helps them down and lets them go on their way. It is just a fun day all around. I always try to get some crowd shots, but this shot was an experiment. I kinda like how it came out:
If you have never tried the Vans Warped Tour, give it a shot. Or, try one of the other great festivals coming to the Inland Empire. Next up for photos… Mayhem Festival on June 29th.
For some of the bands, I have mentioned I would include a few more shots at the end of the post. The reason is I had another photographer with me this day. Normally I shoot alone, but I needed some help with my gear and this guy stepped up to help. So a big thanks to Jose Negrete, and here are a few of the shots he got.

I just bought it from Amazon for 20 bucks, and activated it and all that jazz. I look at the videos of the console versions and the reviews and whatnot....is it just me or does the console version look better than the PC version?
I'm running it at the highest settings at my native resolution with MSAA at 4x.
I understood that older versions of FIFA on PC were just PS2 ports, is it the same case with FIFA 13?
Also how the hell do I just do a straight 1v1 match with the CPU?


text: Stade 5 Juillet 1962 or 5 July 1962 Stadium (the name refers to 5 July 1962, the day Algeria declared independence from France), also known as El Djezair Stadium, is a football and athletics stadium located in Algiers, Algeria. The stadium was inaugurated in 1972 with a capacity of 105,000. It served as the main stadium of the 1975 Mediterranean Games, the 1978 All-Africa Games, the 2004 Pan Arab Games, and the 2007 All-Africa Games. The stadium was one of two venues of the 1990 African Cup of Nations (the other venue was the Stade 19 Mai 1956 in Annaba). It hosted 9 matches of the tournament, including the final match, which had a record attendance of approximately 120,000 spectators. In the final match, the home team Algeria defeated Nigeria 1-0 to win the tournament. It also hosted the 2000 African Championships in Athletics. After a formal compliance with current safety standards in 1999, the stadium was reduced to an 80,000 capacity, and following a new phase of renovation in 2003, the stadium's capacity has been reduced further to its current all-seater capacity of 76,000. The attendance record Algeria vs. Serbia between 100,000 and 110,000 fans in the stadium.

Cross-country move... how does it work?
April 15, 2013
My fiancé and I are planning a cross-country move for the first week in May. We're planning to book a moving company for our stuff, fly ourselves, and ... somehow get our three cats there. The logistics of arranging all these things is just baffling to me.
[yes, the required cat pictures have been included]
My current assumptions are that we'll fly out the same day our lease starts and just make sure we have an early enough flight to get there before the office closes. We'll have the movers load all our stuff the day before that, and then we'll presumably be without stuff for the first week we're there. My biggest concern is the logistics of getting the cats there.
I've looked at a few options for transporting the cats.
are young (
) and healthy, one is old (
) but healthy for her age. The first option we're looking at is having them flow out as cargo. Some cursory research shows that cargo (vs. checked luggage) is pressurized and temperature controlled, so would probably be less bad than flying them as checked luggage, which I understand is pretty horrible. I'm looking at Delta for this, currently, since we're flying out of a Delta hub. If we went this route, we could also potentially carry the older cat on the plane and just put the younger two in cargo. The other option we're looking at is hiring a pet transport company that would drive them cross-country in cages in a van. I'm not sure how much this would cost, and whether it would be more or less stressful for them, overall. It would certainly be stressful for longer. Before going with any of these transport options, we will of course have our vet check out the cats and make sure it seems Ok. The vet seemed initially encouraging about flying them as cargo, which is why it's on the list as an option.
So, I'm looking for advice specifically about transporting cats cross-country without driving them ourselves. Any suggestions I haven't thought of, or information about the options I'm considering would be welcome.
I'm also looking for any other advice about scheduling a cross-country move like this. I've never done it before, and am quite intimidated. Does the movers/flight schedule sound reasonable? Is there a better way to arrange that? What else am I not thinking of?

You've probably already looked at the
Delta pet information
. You
be able to carry all three on the plane, if two of them are small enough to share a kennel.
If not, then putting the younger two in cargo and carrying the older one on with you is probably easiest/least stressful for everyone. This way, they travel with you (more or less) and arrive with you, and would likely be less stressful than having someone drive them.

The younger two could share a large kennel, but there's no way they could both go into one that would fit under the seat. I'd be dubious about the larger one fitting under the seat comfortably by himself.

It makes things take much longer, but my family has done long moves a couple of times, and we always drive our cats ourselves. We don't really trust anyone else with them, and to us it's worth a few extra days and a little bit more money to ensure they're transported as safely and comfortably as possible. I realize that might truly not be an option for you for some reason, but please give it more than a passing thought...
My other piece of advice on long moves is to allow for a pretty wide window for the movers' arrival. We've had movers show up the day they said they would, a day or two *after* they said they would, and most recently, a day BEFORE they said they would. My experience is that you can't rely on movers hitting a very specific schedule, so try to be at the new place before they are supposed to arrive, and be prepared to wait a few extra days (have enough clothes and stuff available) if necessary.

i flew my cats from denver to san francisco in 2007 when i was moving, i think it cost me (at the time) $75 for the one in cargo and $100 for the carryon, but i honestly don't remember. my more "delicate" cat was with me in the cabin, and the other was in cargo. the vet gave me some sedatives for them, but they didn't help too much (or i didn't give them enough - hard to tell). this was back in the day when flights were not oversold, which was good, because the person in the same row as me ended up being highly allergic to cats, but i think he saw that i was not having a good morning, and volunteered to find himself another seat.
my experience went thusly (this was on united, out of DEN, your mileage will probably vary):
when you get to the airport, after you check in at the counter, they will transport you and both (in my case) carriers to a small room. at that point, they will have you take the cats individually out of the carriers. then they will send the carriers through an xray machine separately, and then wand you and whichever cat you are holding. they did this for each cat.
they then took the cat that was going in cargo to another holding area, and i took the other cat with me through security. in the security line, they had me remove her from the carrier and walk through the xray with her. her softsided carrier went through the luggage xray separately. after it was done, i put her back in, gathered the rest of my things, and went to the gate.
after i boarded the plane, they gave me a card that they pulled from my other cat's carrier to prove to me that he was in cargo on my plane.
when we got to SFO, i picked the other cat up in oversized cargo at united.
it wasn't the best experience i've ever had, but it was much, much easier than driving them for 2-3 days. for me, it was that i just could not work out those kind of logistics, and they both righteously hate the car, so i decided to save myself the drama.

Driving them cross-country isn't really an option for us largely because we're planning to sell our cars before moving. Additionally, the older cat has to be kept separated from the other two and I really can't imagine doing that night after night in hotels. I also have a hard time believing that days on end in a car, plus exploring a new hotel room every night would really be less stressful for them than a shorter plane trip (or especially than a pet transport van). We're going from Atlanta to Portland, so we really are going
all the way
across the country.
primethyme, I assume you mean when the arrive at the destination with our stuff, correct? Or do I need to schedule days on either side of when they'll arrive to put things on the truck?

oh! i forgot to add. i also had to get them health certificates from the vet, and take them with me to the airport to prove they were okay and had all their shots. keep that in mind, since most airlines require it.
also, i made them new collars with my name, address, phone number, flight number, and boyfriend's name and cell number shrinkwrapped to them. i also had it like, 3 different places on each carrier - taped to the inside bottom, taped to the outside top, and on the door. it was probably paranoid of me, but better safe than lost kitty.

Yes, sorry, when they arrive at the destination with your stuff. They should definitely be on time for picking your stuff up (if they're not, I'd see that as a bad sign). They also should be in communication with you the whole way about where things stand. In the past we've gotten the driver's cell phone number, and he regularly updated us about when he would be arriving. It's just that they often have to load up and/or unload other peoples' stuff too, and weather can cause problems, so there are a lot of variables involved in when they'll arrive.

Given your parameters and the description on the Delta site, I'd put the two younger cats in cargo and take the senior cat onto the plane with you.
Be sure that everyone has ID, perhaps you can take everyone to the vet to get chips (if you don't have them already.) My indoor cats have both collars and chips. I'm freaked out about losing either one of them!
Talk to the vet about sedation. If you can get both kitties to sleep, or at least chill, that will help them a lot. See if you can get a Valium from your doctor.
Felaway, or some other calming scent will be nice too.

Now for the move part of our show.
First Packing:
Do this methodically start with things you don't need immediately, and progress to stuff you'll use up to the last day:
If you can afford it,
rent crates
. You can order them where you are, and they'll come get them where you're going.
This is great because they're sturdy and will hold a lot, you can get away without wrapping a lot of stuff, and they are eco-friendly. Also, you don't have tape them, or build them or anything. They give you wheeled dollies so you can stack them and store until your movers come.
You will save time and angst with Rent-a-crate.
If you're not going to do that, get boxes from the liquor store. Use the bottle separators for your glasses and stemware. You don't have to wrap, just plop them in there.
Label as you go. Use a big black marker. First the room where the box goes, then what's in it. Not a huge long list, but a memory jogger. Example.
Living Room
Throw pillows, vases.
This will come in very handy at the distant end, when you're looking for the box with the can opener.
Movers: Fix on a firm pick up date. Insist in the contract that they show up on that date. Have a phone number of someone you can call, program it into your cell, write it on the back of your hand.
You'll have a choice to go with the estimate price or you can pay by the pound. Go by the estimate, your shit weighs more than you think.
Insurance, most moving insurance is crap. They pay .30 per pound. Not too much help if they trash your Lladro. Call your renters insurance to see if they have a special rider you can buy. Don't cheap out on the insurance with the moving company.
While the guys are in your house, it's not too paranoid to put your jewelry in your purse and th schlep it around all day with you. (get a nice fabric rolling bag for this.) You'll also bring it on the plane with you. I've done with with my mother's sterling silver, service for 8 with serving pieces. So they think you're a freak. Who cares?
Get rid of anything cheap, heavy, fragile or ugly. Just buy new. It costs more to ship your dishes than it will cost to get a new set at Target. Besides, you want some nice stuff for your new digs.
Moving mattresses. Moving trucks move different loads. You've heard about the bed-bug thing? I'd get rid of any mattresses and/or any soft furniture. Get new.
Before stuff goes in the house, inspect for bugs. Cardboard is more bug friendly than plastic (another boost for Rentacrate.)
The driver will be a great guy. Those other guys he brought with him to load and pack? Yeah, day laborers. Buy the crew lunch (McDonalds is fine) and tip everyone a $20 (Unless they're real slack jaws).
When you get to the distant end, you'll be asked to sign off that you received your stuff without breakage. Don't rush to sign it. Go into the boxes with your most fragile stuff, check your furniture and mirrors, check your TVs. Only after you're assured yourself that the stuff appears to be in good condition, do you sign it.
Report anything that's amiss as soon as you can. Send a follow up email.
Be prepared to lose something and to break something. It happens.
Again, sell as much of your stuff as you can. You can buy new stuff cheaper than moving it.
Disregard if someone is paying for your move.

The best way I have seen this handled was to buy a friend a plane ticket to bring the third cat.
I have heard enough Very Bad Things about flying pets as cargo - by every airline that does it - that I'd seriously consider rehoming my pets before I would do that to them.
PODS. PODS PODS PODS. You think it costs more, until the moving truck stops at the Arizona border and claims they need another $1500 to finish the drive. Or they park in front of your house with a lock on the back of the truck, telling you it'll take another $900 (cash only, $1500 credit card because then they have to give the office manager a cut (true story from an employee of mine)) to unlock it. It will take longer for your things to arrive, so you can either ship them a week or two before you leave (borrow an air mattress, folding chairs, and a couple pots and pans) or live on the floor for a week or two after you arrive.

I would consider flying in early and staying in a cat-friendly hotel or other short-term rental for at least one night. There is so much that can go wrong - what if the apartment isn't ready for you? What if your flight is cancelled? What if the office closed early for no reason and you're standing outside a locked door in the rain with nowhere to stay? etc.
When I hired a moving company for a half-cross-country move, we scheduled a day for them to get my stuff. They packed it all up themselves for insurance purposes (I wasn't paying). Then, we scheduled a day for them to drop it off. They made the trip in about two days while I took a week by car. The other days it was in temporary storage (probably just staying in the truck). There was an option for even longer-term storage at a higher rate.

There are pet moving companies out there. I cannot speak to their professionalism/animal care/etc., but that is another option that might be worth investigating. I looked into them and decided they were too expensive and drove my cat instead.

Another thing: I recommend getting a quote on having the movers pack and unpack for you. We've found it to be surprisingly inexpensive (at least in the big picture with relation to the overall cost of the movers), and it's SO MUCH EASIER. They generally pack all our stuff in a single day, and deliver and unpack also in a single day. It really minimizes the disruption. And the best thing about having them unpack for you is that they take away all the boxes and packing materials, so you don't have to deal with that either.
We've found it to really take a lot of the stress out of moving. It doesn't hurt to at least ask what they'd charge.

Seconding the thought about getting a quote from movers for packing and unpacking, at least. If you're already paying for movers, it won't be that much extra.
Also, based on far too much experience, it's a gigantic hassle coordinating leases, key returns, security deposits, key pick ups, service turn-offs at the old place, service turn-ons at the new place, etc. etc. At least one of the various items will go wrong or won't happen on time. If your budget will stretch to cover it, consider a short term hotel stay at the destination city while you set up your new place. Or stay a couple of nights with friends if possible. (Although I don't know how that works with cats...)

I have a backup location to stay on arrival if anything goes wrong, so we've got that covered.
Thanks for all the input so far.

Glad to hear you have a backup location for your first night. I did a similar move a few years ago and got stuck outside my new apartment for a couple of hours (with luggage and cat carrier, NOT FUN), so a backup plan is highly recommended.
Make sure to think about food, water, and litter for your kitties when you arrive. Depending on the length of your flight, they may have been in their carriers for quite awhile at that point.

I have moved across country and across half the country several times. The one thing I learned that I would do differently now than I did then is moving furniture. If you are paying for the move yourself and it is based on weight, if your furniture is old or not in great condition or not that expensive, consider not moving the old couch, the old bed, etc. Sell or donate them and buy new at your new location.
If you are moving a lot of books, it would probably be cheapest to box them up and ship them to yourself at book rate. It may take a few weeks or even a month to get it, but it is less expensive by a lot than to pay to move them with a moving company.

We moved from Sydney to California and back with out cats (yeah, we're crazy). Seriously, seriously consider finding a cat sitter, cat "hotel", or something for the first week or two (or have a family member cat-sit, and send them on a couple of weeks later). Having a week or two to settle in and unpack (stressful for the cats anyway) - without worrying about them accidentally getting outside* - was a HUGE help. If you can't manage this, keep them in their crates and get ONE room set up, and set up their food dishes, beds/blankies, etc so they can be happy in there while you unpack the rest of the house. (*Even indoor cats get lost during moves... they get all nervous and dart out while you're bringing things in and out of the house. Besides that, our cats just have a knack for getting underfoot and in the way!)
They flew cargo, shared a small dog crate, and were just fine. When my mom picked them up at LAX she let them out in her car to stretch their legs, use the litter box, eat etc. I'm pretty sure our male cat had "held it" the entire 13 hr flight! We used Aeropets and they were great... I'd do that with the younger two, and take the third in the cabin with you. Do not give them sedatives. Do get some Feliway and plug it in at your new place - it emits "cat smell" (pheromones) which helps make them calm and confident in a new space.
The first week without your stuff will kinda suck... bring a pillow, some basic cookware, if you can. It'll be over soon. There's no way to make this super graceful... your move is already going to be waaaay easier than moving across the Pacific! If you can afford it, a hotel room would be pretty sweet.
We used Rainier overseas movers... about $2700 to pack us up and ship us over.
worth it. If you're paying to ship, definitely get them to pack it too. (In our case, they insisted on packing as part of insuring the stuff.)

Thanks so much for all your help, everybody! We and the cats have made it to Portland, and are settling in well. We don't actually have any
yet, but one day!
One recommendation for anyone checking this thread out later:
Do not trust the generic phone reps at Delta to correctly set up your pet transport!
We discovered when we arrived at the cargo center that our reservation was completely messed up in many ways. I'd recommend calling and talking to someone at the actual cargo office once you've got the reservation, to find out exactly what health forms you need, get a clearer idea of policies, and find out where the cargo office is located.
The phone rep booked our cats on a plane that can't accept live cargo, told us the cats could share a kennel (which the Delta website seemed to confirm) and just said we needed a "health certification".
We then had to re-schedule the cats onto a different flight (one that got in almost 7 hours later than our original arrival schedule), meaning a trip back to the airport on arrival. We had to buy a second kennel from the cargo office (thankfully they had one!) since only cats under six months old and from and same litter can share a kennel. We also had to have the vet fax over the specific USDA-stamped interstate travel forms. Oh, and the cargo office was miles away from the main terminal, and completely unmarked.

Apries, Hebrew Hophra (died 567 bce), fourth king (reigned 589–570 bce) of the 26th dynasty (664–525 bce; see ancient Egypt: The Late period [664–332 bce]) of ancient Egypt; he succeeded his father, Psamtik II.
Apries failed to help his ally King Zedekiah of Judah against the invading armies of Nebuchadrezzar II of Babylon, but after the fall of Jerusalem he received many Jewish refugees into Egypt. Later, according to Herodotus, he took the Phoenician port of Sidon, but, because of his subsequent failure in an attack on Cyrene in Libya, the Egyptian army mutinied and elected their general Amasis as king instead (570). Apries was imprisoned but escaped; he later was murdered, perhaps by Egyptians.

the computational domain is divided into a number of elements, and the numerical
solution is represented as a polynomial on each element. The polynomial order is
usually in the range 6-20. The partial differential equation is solved in weak
form, as for a finite element method, and the continuity of the solution over
element interfaces can be imposed strongly or weakly. Solutions of
multi-dimensional problems are represented by tensor products of polynomials on
each element.
Our three-dimensional spectral element implementation is based on hexahedral
elements in Cartesian geometry. The formulation is geometrically (all element
vertices match other element vertices) and functionally (all grid points at
element faces are the same from both sides of the face) conforming.
De-aliasing/over-integration is implemented for stabilization of non-linear
effects, as well as polynomial filtering of the solution. The program runs in
parallel by the use of MPI.
The solution method for the Navier-Stokes equation for incompressible,
viscous flow is based on a splitting of the problem using the
Operator-Integration-Factor method, to obtain an explicit problem for the
advection term and an implicit problem for the viscous terms and the pressure
gradient. The implicit problem is split again by a generalized block LU
decomposition to decouple velocity and pressure.
For variable-density problems, the Boussinesq approximation is implemented,
as well as a pseudo-incompressible formulation.

text: FAIRBANKS- Mental support agencies organized a crisis intervention training for local law enforcement. During the week- long program, police from different departments learned how to de-escalate a crisis situation when confronting someone suffering from mental illness. With the new skills, police can help the mentally ill reconnect with health care support rather than be arrested. Today, police learned the complexities and stigmas about post-traumatic stress disorder. The National Alliance on Mental Illness, the Fairbanks Police Department, the Fairbanks Memorial Hospital and Fairbanks Community Mental Health Services helped organize the training with a grant from the Alaska Mental Health Trust Authority.

November 19, 2013
Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton and the Minnesota Department of Transportation have announced ten highway construction projects will receive funding through the state's new $300 million Corridors of Commerce program.
The projects will strengthen Minnesota's transportation system by adding capacity and improving the movement of freight across the state, according to a release.
Transportation improvements include the addition of lanes, bypasses and shoulders to essential travel corridors in the state, including Interstate 94 between Rogers and St. Michael, Highway 14 in southern Minnesota, and Highway 34 between Detroit Lakes and Nevis. Five of the projects are scheduled to start in 2014, three in 2015 and two in 2016.
The selected projects were among more than 400 proposals representing more than 100 unique projects that the state DOT received earlier this fall from public sector partners, stakeholders and interested citizens across the state.
Enacted during the 2013 legislative session, the Corridors of Commerce program authorizes special funding for projects that are not already in the Minnesota's four-year State Transportation Improvement Program. The legislation established two major goals for the program: to increase highway capacity on segments where bottlenecks occur and to improve the movement of freight and reduce barriers to commerce.
A map of the Corridors of Commerce projects is available for download.

The following cars represent the most technically advanced available.
It may look like a high-strung sports sedan, but the 2014 Chevrolet Impala LT is all about pampering its driver with a comfortable ride without breaking the bank. The new MyLink tech isn't the best in this class, but it gets the job done.
Expect the will of the people to prevail when it comes to overpowering regulatory restrictions against renting out private lodgings, Airbnb Joe Gebbia argues.
A partnership with Avis Budget Group gives renters a chance to try AT&T CruiseCast before they buy.
Car rental firms join the carbon-offset bandwagon.
The ride-sharing company sells carpooling service Zimride to the car rental company.
Avis readies in-car Wi-Fi service
More specifically, car batteries. The Renault Zoe has a battery that you can't recharge unless you continue to pay the rental cost, Der Spiegel reports.
The car rental company will officially own the car-sharing company in the spring of 2013, pending regulatory approval.
The 2014 Chevrolet Impala is not your low-riding, grandfather-driving, rental-car-roaming vehicle anymore. In fact it's now a nicely appointed vehicle with a pretty good motor attached to it.
Rental car giant partners with Coda Automotive to augment its California rental fleet with 100 electric sedans that get up to 120 miles on a charge.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I think that's covered in the quests surrounding the investigation of the Vrykul in Howling Fjord: you go back in time and see the first humans being bored to terrified Vrykul, who assume that, since the their Gods, the Titans, have stopped responding to their prayers and pleas, these tiny, weak, useless creatures are a curse. Their king, Ymiron, orders them to kill all their human-born offspring; over time, all vrykul stop bearing vrykul and start bearing human offspring. Thus the vrykul start putting themselves into magical hibernation to try to outlive the curse. Eventually, agents of the Lich King find these guys and figure out what's going on; the Lich King promises eternal life to those who serve him, etc.
As Heigan the Unclean appears to be of the same stock as the vrykul sleep-watchers, this may have started before Arthas became the Lich King.

Fastspot Selected for Interactive Design Projects for Dickinson College and University of Puget Sound
Fastspot has been selected by Dickinson College and the University of Puget Sound to redesign each institution's respective Website, according to Tracey Halvorsen, creative director and co-founder of the firm.
"The critical role that Websites play in the overall communications activities of colleges and universities has changed dramatically since most of them created their initial sites," commented Halvorsen. "For example, potential applicants to colleges and universities now typically first experience a school through its Website. Therefore, it's really important that the site engages, excites, and informs these applicants, as well as establishes a foundation of trust."
Fastspot is creating each site in collaboration with other marketing and communications efforts currently underway by each institution. "This team approach will ensure that their brand attributes are integrated through visual and message consistency," emphasized Halvorsen.
Dickinson College, a four-year liberal arts institution founded in 1783 in Carlisle, PA, has an enrollment of approximately 2,400 students. "We've been quite pleased in our work with Fastspot," said Paul Dempsey, Director of Electronic Communication at Dickinson. "They've provided a number of strong design options and have been very flexible with making things fit our unique needs. It's been a very effective collaboration."
The University of Puget Sound, with an enrollment of about 2,600 students, was founded in 1888 in Tacoma, WA.
Fastspot, with a recognized expertise in interactive communications for higher education institutions, recently completed a comprehensive interactive project for Bucknell University, in Lewisburg, PA.

Why can't people with hyperthyroidism have surgery for under eye puffiness?
Why can't people with hyperthyroidism have surgery for under eye puffiness?
There are many issues to consider in performing blepharoplasty of the lower lids in a patient with hyperthyroidism. The first concern is to make sure that all of your thyroid issues are addressed prior to any surgery. Once you are medically stable it would be of great benefit to visit with a surgeon who is familiar with hyperthyroidism, exophthalmus, and cosmetic issues related to the lower lids. It may be more than simply fat which is contributing to your lower lid puffiness and there may be problems with the muscles that control the movement of your eye or tissue edema from treatment of your hyperthyroidism that may not respond well to surgery.
Hi there-
I agree with Dr. Aldea- once your thyroid function is controlled at a normal level and your eyelid appearance is stable, it may be possible to offer you some improvement- but until then it's not safe for you.

Hyperthyroidism is a systemic disease in which the metabolism (pulse, blood pressure, temperature) is operating at an exaggerated rate. Operating on such a patient can precipitate a dreaded complication CALLED Thyroid Storm which could be fatal. It is therefore essential to control and slow the thyroid and metabolic rate to normal level before attempting ANY elective operations.
Achieving a normal metabolic rate with a steady state (eu)thyroid is important both metabolically and anatomically. As surgeons, we want to see what a structure looks like normally - not when artificially enlarged by weight gain or, in this case, an over-active thyroid.
In performing eyelid surgery, the position of the globe relative to the edge of the eye socket is critical. Although in many cases a prominent (PROPTOTIC) eye (IE globe lurching too much forward and lower lid having little to no support and being pulled down) is due to a natural deficiency of the cheek bone - in hyperthyroid cases it may not be.
In certain forms of hyperthyroidism the fat under the globe and in the lower lid increases in volume greatly and pushes the globe forward resulting in the classic "staring" hyperthyroid eye appearance.
The reluctance of surgeons to tackle hyperthyroid patients has a lot to do with their wanting to wait until the appearance of the eyes and lids is stable and thyroid gland function has normalized. Only then can permanent decisions on how to ideally handle excess fat, lid laxity globe position etc be addressed safely.
Hope this helps.
Dr. P. Aldea
In South Florida, you might want to be evaluated by Dr. Steven Fagien who is an ophthalmologist who specializes in eyelid surgery. He can evaluate you and tell you if there is anything safe that can be done.
