Empress Elizabeth of Austria
After enjoying an informal and carefree childhood, Elizabeth (Sisi) had a hard time adjusting to the strict ettique of the Hapsburg court. Her mother-in-law was extremely overbearing, and even took complete control of Sisi's children, deeming the "silly young mother" unable to raise them. Her husband, Franz Joseph, was passionately in love with her, but she did not reciprocate his feelings fully and felt stifled by the extent of his obsession.
Because of her disapointment in court life, she became extremely obsessed with her weight and looks. Today, many believe she suffered from anorexia or bullimia. Every day, she exercised until exhaustion and even had a gymnasium installed in the palace. She tightlaced to reduce her waist to a mere 16 inches, and at one point wieghed less than 100 lbs. One of her dressses displaying her waitline is shown below.
Elisabeth also practised what could be called a true beauty cult. She had floor length hair and spent almost 3 hours styling it everyday, and had her hairdresses pluck out the grey hairs later in her life. She slept without a pillow on a metal bedstead, all the better to retain her upright posture, with either raw veal or crushed strawberries lining her nightly leather facial mask. To further preserve her skin tone, she took both a cold shower every morning (which in later years aggravated her arthritis) and an olive oil bath in the evening. Below is a Winterhalter potrait showing her abundant hair.
After her son's mysteries death, possibly a suicide, she withdrew from court life. To escape from her meloncholy, she traveled the world. She traveled to Geneva in 1898, where she was assainated by an Italian anarchist, and her tragic life ended at age 60.
want to rewatch takarazuka's Elizabeth after reading this.

Lose your house, then get sued
Foreclosure or a short sale may not free you of financial obligations around your home -- a humongous bill could arrive years later. Here's how to protect yourself.
Related topics: homes, home financing, foreclosure, mortgage, Liz Weston
Losing a home to foreclosure or struggling to arrange a short sale is hard enough. But another blow may lie ahead if your lender comes after you for the difference between what you owe and what your home is ultimately worth.
The bill, which can arrive years after a foreclosure or short sale is completed, comes as a big shock to many, said Ike Shulman, a bankruptcy attorney in San Jose, Calif., a co-founder of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys.
"I see a lot of people who had no idea they'd be stuck with debt" after a short sale or foreclosure, Shulman said. "These aren't small amounts. I had one (client sued) for $175,000."
State laws vary widely. About half of the states have "judicial foreclosure," in which foreclosures happen in court and lenders are allowed to sue borrowers when the proceeds of a foreclosure or short sale don't cover everything that's owed -- a gap known as a deficiency. Other states put restrictions on lenders' ability to pursue such debt, but only North Dakota and Oregon forbid deficiency judgments of any kind.
Liz Weston
Even in states that offer borrowers more protection, however, you could still find a lender coming after you for money.
For example, California is a "nonjudicial foreclosure" state; its courts typically aren't used for foreclosures, and lenders normally aren't allowed to sue homeowners over mortgages used to purchase homes. But the protection is weaker if a homeowner had refinanced a loan and may not exist at all for second mortgages, such as home equity loans or lines of credit, that are taken out after a purchase.
"When you have a second mortgage, the chances are greater that you're going to get sued," said attorney Stephen Elias, the author of a "The Foreclosure Survival Guide: Keep Your House or Walk Away With Money in Your Pocket."
Another way people can be vulnerable is when they're trying to arrange a short sale -- a sale of their home for less than they owe -- and the lender includes a clause in the paperwork that puts the borrower on the hook for some or all of the remaining debt. Alternatively, the paperwork may not mention the remaining debt at all, giving the lender the freedom to pursue it later.
"(Short sellers) could have unknowingly signed up to pay debt that they wouldn't owe in a foreclosure," Shulman said. "There's a lot of misinformation and a lack of information. . . . In many cases, people are flying blind."
Will your lender sue you?
Just the fact that a lender can sue you, however, doesn't mean that it actually will. There aren't any hard figures showing how many lenders are pursuing borrowers for debt, and some say the lawsuit threat is overblown.
Lenders often don't pursue borrowers for deficiency judgments because it's usually not worthwhile economically, said Brent T. White, an associate professor of law at the University of Arizona who wrote a research paper called "Underwater and Not Walking Away: Shame, Fear and the Social Management of the Housing Crisis."
White believes lenders, politicians and the news media exaggerate the threat to discourage deeply "underwater" borrowers from abandoning their mortgages. (See "Are you foolish to pay your mortgage?")
The costs of lawsuits and the fact that many borrowers can't pay are factors keeping lenders from pursuing more deficiency judgments, agreed Jon Maddux, the CEO of You Walk Away, a site that advises homeowners about foreclosure and strategic default.
Maddux also believes lenders are concerned about bad public relations. Lenders don't want to be seen as "kicking people when they're down," Maddux said. "And people know (big lenders) received bailout money, and they're making profits again."
Those, Maddux said, are among the reasons that only six out of more than 4,000 clients served by You Walk Away have been saddled with deficiency judgments.
"Only six cases in the last three years, and those were primarily people with second mortgages," Maddux said. "That's a very low risk. . . . It's a safe risk to take. I don't think that should deter anyone from strategic default or walking away from a house."
'You can't count on getting lucky'
Shulman disagrees. He's hearing from more people who have been sued, and he believes the pace of lender lawsuits has picked up in the past year.
"I think the banks are getting more serious about going after this debt," Shulman said.
Shulman noted that lenders often have several years to decide whether to pursue a borrower for mortgage debt. He said lawsuits aren't all that expensive to file, especially if the lender finds a lawyer willing to work on contingency -- that is, without being paid upfront. Or the lender could simply sell the unpaid debt to a collection agency.
"I don't think it's something you can predict," Shulman said of the risk of being sued. "If you're vulnerable legally, you can't count on getting lucky."
Maddux agreed that the risk of lawsuits may still exist for his clients.
"It's still too early to tell," Maddux said. "A lot of these lenders have three years, four years or even five years (to make a decision). They may be sitting back, seeing if they want to pursue deficiency judgments."
If you're about to lose your home, here's what you need to do:
- Try to relieve yourself of liability in a short sale. Tell your real-estate agent you want a deal in which the lender accepts the home sale proceeds as full settlement of the mortgage, Shulman said. Carefully examine all paperwork to make sure you're not signing a clause that makes you liable for any debt after the sale. If the lender balks, consider whether you might have more protection with a foreclosure. If not, consider negotiating a settlement to reduce what you owe to the lender.
- Research your state's laws. Attorney Elias compiled a summary of each state's laws for his book that's also posted on publisher Nolo's website. He notes that his list deals only with the most common types of foreclosures in each state and pertains only to single-family residences. Elias provides links to help you do further research, but I'd recommend discussing your situation with a bankruptcy attorney who can assess your vulnerability to lawsuits.
- Talk to your accountant. If, rather than suing you, your lender agrees to forgive a portion of your debt, the forgiven debt is potentially taxable income to you. The Mortgage Debt Relief Act of 2007 allows many taxpayers to exclude mortgage debt forgiven between 2007 and 2012 from their income, but the law has enough exceptions and limitations that you'll want to discuss your situation with a tax pro.
- Consider bankruptcy if you're sued. A deficiency judgment can be wiped out in a Chapter 7 liquidation filing, Shulman said, or what you have to pay can be reduced or eliminated in a Chapter 13 repayment plan. A bankruptcy might not be necessary if you have few assets and your income is the type that can't be seized by creditors, such as Social Security payments. In that case, you're considered "judgment-proof," and the lender wouldn't be able to collect on any judgment it gets. But you'll want to run your situation past a bankruptcy attorney, just to be sure.

The year featured its usual array of the exciting (the Giants beat the Patriots in another classic Super Bowl), the fantastic (the play of rookie QBs Robert Griffin III, Andrew Luck and Russell Wilson), the disagreeable (Buccaneers coach Greg Schiano and Giants counterpart Tom Coughlin arguing about strategy) and the tragic (Eagles coach Andy Reid's son overdosing on heroin and Cowboys linebacker Jerry Brown being killed in a car accident). While some of these moments were stunning, they all failed to make this year's top five NFL stories of 2012. – By Jason Cole (Yahoo! Sports)
No. 5: Jovan Belcher murder/suicide – One of the ugliest off-field incidents in the history of the game hit the Chiefs on Dec. 1. Belcher, an undrafted free agent linebacker from Maine in his fourth year in the league, first killed his girlfriend and mother of his three-month-old daughter, shooting her nine times. He then took his own life by putting a gun to his head in front of coaches Romeo Crennel and Gary Gibbs and GM Scott Pioli in front of the Chiefs complex. Belcher's tragic loss of his senses led to all sorts of discussions about gun control, relationship issues and mental health. Afterward, several players turned in guns.
No. 4: Junior Seau and suicide in the NFL – The rash of suicides among former NFL players and the perceived link between them and head trauma associated with football came into its sharpest focus on May 2 when Junior Seau took his own life. He was roundly considered one of the happiest, most proud and seemingly care-free men to play in the NFL, having logged 20 seasons in the league. Almost everyone in the NFL had a favorite story to tell about Seau, and New England's Bill Belichick, the last man to coach Seau, was among those who attended his funeral. Sadly, Seau died before he could be enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but his death may have an even larger effect on pushing safety in the game.
No. 3: New Orleans Saints bounty scandal – Oh, those wacky Saints and their three years of shenanigans under coach Sean Payton and former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams. From the time that the NFL announced its finding in March, this story never went away, which is an obscenely dumb outcome, all things considered. While it's impossible to get into all of the particulars of the story, the point is: The Saints were wrong by not ending the program after the 2009 season when the NFL investigated them originally. At the same time, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell went way too far in penalizing the players, most of which had little or nothing to do with actually administering the bounty program.
No. 2: Replacement refs fiasco – The NFL spent the entire offseason, all of training camp and the first three weeks of the regular season haggling with its locked out officials over what seemed like very little money. The real reason was a complicated pension issue the league is trying to get around. Finally, after the replacement refs were blamed for everything from Green Bay losing to Seattle (and leading to Yahoo's Michael Silver famous exchange with fellow Cal grad Aaron Rodgers) to unrest in the Middle East and global warming (it was a busy three weeks), the NFL capitulated to the veteran officials. Good thing, otherwise we might have lost even more time from the first St. Louis-San Francisco game.
No. 1: Peyton Manning changes places … and pushes Tim Tebow out – Manning's wild saga has dominated the entire year in the NFL. The issues/questions were deep and far-reaching, starting with whether he would ever play again. Next was what would the Colts do, where would Manning sign once Indy let him go, what would the Broncos do with Tebow after they signed Manning, how would Tebow work with incumbent starter Mark Sanchez after being traded to the Jets and how would Manning play. Now we're asking: Will Manning win his fifth NFL MVP award, lead the Broncos to the Super Bowl and where will Tebow play next year?

Ahh, man this is going to suck.
Glad my sump pump was replaced yesterday.
All night I watched these storms pop up just south of me and to the east around O'Hare but it wasn't until after midnight that we got any rain where I live. I could even see it was raining hard less than a mile from me between Bode and Schaumburg Rd.--In need of a Vegas vacation.
It woke me up last night a couple of times!
We had a good lightning show out in Naperville from about 11PM till about 2AM. Good amount of rain - no a flash flood or downpour by any means but a few hours of some good constant rain.--The early bird catches the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.CPL:IA;ASEL/AMEL. CFI:ASE/AME; IA

No it was there, and I even posted in the the other thread.
Yeah, it was definitely there.

I can 3rd that it had reappeared. I put my post about the NWS update there, then wondered why nobody commented.
It looks like we are on the north edge of a 'ring of fire' setup. Lots of chances of storms for the next week and beyond.
We're going to ribfest to see ZZTop on Sunday. Better not F**king rain!

The northern edge of the storm just brushed its sleeve in Elgin. The wind gushed for a few minutes, but there was no rain north of here. Driving down North Avenue (Rt. 64) was weird because most of the traffic lights were out; not even flashing, but out. Most of the shopping centers must have been shut down since there was none of the usual cross traffic. Most cars stopped at each light anyway. There were trees and branches all over the streets of Oak Park River Forest. My 87-year old father had to walk up to his 5th floor condo since power was out, and may not be restored for two days.

Here's why Kurt Busch to RPM is a bad idea
By admin | December 13, 2011
By Richard Allen
Every so often I like to argue with myself on some particular issue in racing. Being a Psychology teacher I suppose that is somewhat appropriate.
On this occasion my topic is one that created much buzz on Tuesday afternoon when SiriusXM Radio's NASCAR channel broke the story that Richard Petty Motorsports was considering hiring volatile Kurt Busch to drive a car for them in 2012.
Busch parted ways with Penske Racing after he was caught on camera delivering a profane and hostile tirade toward ESPN pit reporter Dr. Jerry Punch and one of the network's cameramen. This particular incident was just another in a series of anger laden outbursts toward media, competitors and his own crew members that eventually built up to reach a level that would no longer be tolerated by those in power on the Penske team.
Considering Busch's troubled past, would it be a good decision for any team to hire him as a driver? In this column I will offer reasons as to why Busch joining RPM is a bad idea.
The most obvious reason as to why Busch should not be hired by a team in need of a championship driver's services is his attitude. Many(including Jack Roush and Roger Penske) would argue that his immense talent cannot override his difficult personality.
Only a brief listen to his team radio channel reveals that Busch almost constantly berates his crew members. These deriding tirades are often profane and personal. Human nature would suggest that it would be virtually impossible for crew members to perform at their best level amid these constant verbal lashings.
Busch has also shown he can be highly disrespectful toward car owners. A well documented audio tape exists of he and much respected Roger Penske involved in a heated argument during a race in Martinsville. And the thing about the possibility of Busch driving for RPM is that the man whose name is on this team is not just any man. Richard Petty is one of the most revered names in the sport's history. One of Busch's disrespectful tirades would be less than well received to say the least.
And as has been proven recently, Busch's antics can serve to embarrass sponsors. That is something in this time of economic cutbacks that no team can afford.
Another reason for RPM not to hire Busch would be that doing so could disrupt what seemed to be a good thing by end of the last season. Drivers Marcos Ambrose and A.J. Allmendinger scored several top-10 finishes and looked as if they were on the verge of a breakout. Throwing a driver who will require so much attention into the mix could severely upset the balance.
Kurt Busch has been fired once before with little impact. After his dismissal from Roush Fenway Racing, his attitude changed little. He was even punched once by Jimmy Spencer with little result. What makes anyone think he will change now, especially after being signed so soon after his recent separation from Penske?

Why would anything with Richard Petty's name on it hire a time bomb that's will blowup again. I have been a loyal follower of Richard Petty since 1964, hiring Kurt Busch I just can't understand. Then again money talks and now not like the 60's & 70's the sponsor has a great deal to who drives. As i mentioned that I have been a loyal fan of Richard Petty since 1964 and will remain. My only hope is if it happens that its not going to destroy RPM
Darrell Says:

I have been a Richard Petty fan since 1962, and for anyone that has driven for him. But if they take AJ out of the car and put Kurt Bush in, I will never pull for them again!
I think that AJ is on the verge of breaking out, and held RPM together last year when it was all falling apart. I understand the possible reason why, but how can you sell your sole to the Devil. What has happen to moral and ethics?

I hope this never happens,I to have been a follower of petty and his drivers since about 1970.Aj has done a fabulas job in turning this into a front running team.The team and owners should look back at the race that a lap down kurt bush spun out the leader of the race the dinger.that race could have been aj's

Kurt Busch is a Champion, Kurt Busch is motivated to win, Kurt Busch has proven he knows how to achieve his goals. Have the police been called to his home for domestic abuse? Has he been convicted of drunk driving or reckless driving? Have his actions been detrimental to stock car auto racing? No, No, No and No. He is an adult in a sport with other adult participants. The sport is covered by adults who are in the media. Kurt chooses to bare his soul and describe events as he perceives them in the darkest and most hateful way imaginable to other adults, SO WHAT, they are only words! Does he communicate with the fans in this manner? NO! Does he speak with the hundreds of people he meets in his role as a philanthropist? Obviously not. "Actions not words" was written on our school's folders as a child, and as a child I was told, "Stcks and Stones will break your Bones but Names will never hurt You. This is such a small issue it is easily remedied by taking the steps Kurt has initiated of late. Hire a $%##%%@$%^ Champion and win a few %^&%$#$ races!

In answer to Gregory Howe's reply. Kurt did not have the police called to his home for domestic abuse because his wife already divorced him this year.
Kurt deserves at best to go back to the truck series or Nationwide. He is not the kind of person any sponsor or team in their right mind would want to have drive for them. Even the least of the low level teams that are courting Kurt have said that they would not put up with what Kurt did this year.
Richard Petty will loose a lot of respect in the sport in he jets AJ to make room for Kurt.

Staff Reports for Proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendments
The following proposed amendments to the Fairfax County Zoning Ordinance are scheduled to be authorized or have been authorized for advertisement of public hearings before the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors. Please note that hearing dates and times may be subject to change.
For the convenience of the public, copies of the Staff Reports for the Proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendments are available for review in portable document format (PDF) by clicking the amendment title below. In order to view these documents, you will need to have the free Adobe Reader Version 6.0 or higher installed on your computer. Some attachments to the Staff Reports may not be available in electronic format. If you are interested in viewing these documents, please contact the Zoning Administration Division at 703-324-1314.
The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment seeks to increase the maximum allowed volume and height of an unmanned equipment cabinet that is permitted to be located by-right on an existing or replacement utility distribution and transmission pole or light/camera standard in any street right-of-way or utility easement, in support of a telecommunication facility. In addition, the amendment also clarifies the limitation placed on the number of permitted antennas for such facilities by eliminating the maximum allotment when the proposed antennas are entirely enclosed within a stealth extension of the existing or replacement pole or standard.
Planning Commission Public Hearing: October 1 2014 at 8:15
Board of Supervisors' Public Hearing: October 28, 2014 at 4:30 p.m.
Planned Development District Recreation Fee
The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment increases the minimum expenditure per dwelling unit for recreational facilities in the PDH, PDC, PRM, and PTC Districts from $1,700 to $1,800 per unit. Affordable dwelling units are exempted from this requirement.
Planning Commission Public Hearing: September 11, 2014 at 8:15
Board of Supervisors' Public Hearing: October 28, 2014 at 4:00 p.m.
The proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment establishes a new use of a food truck as any readily movable mobile food service establishment, to include vehicles that are self-propelled, pushed or pulled to a specific location. The food truck use would be permitted as an accessory use on private property in any commercial or industrial district, in the commercial portions of a P district, or on any construction site with an active building permit and on-going construction activity, subject to compliance with applicable regulations. These regulations include a requirement to submit a food truck permit application with a $100 filing fee on a one-time basis for property owners who wish to have food trucks on their property and annually for food truck operators. The application would require compliance with proposed use limitations which include limitations on the location, duration and number of food trucks permitted on a property. The amendment also prohibits food trucks from parking in residential areas and may not be the principal use on the lot.
Planning Commission Public Hearing: July 30, 2014 at 8:15 p.m.
Planning Commission Decision: September 10, 2014 at 8:15 p.m.

Another way to Embrace.
312 Drummond Street
(03) 9347 3312
UPDATE November 2011 // My latest encounter here.
Sitting quietly on Drummond Street, Embrasse is quite the dark horse. It's quaint and dimly lit from the outside. You really can't tell what magic lies within. Stepping in, it really was quite a small space, made even more apparent by the fully occupied tables.
The Tasting Menu comprises of the Chef's Selection from the A La Carte Menu. There is a choice between the 5 course ($95) with wine pairing ($160) or the 8 course ($125) with wine pairing ($220).
Courses are gorgeously plated and they use the freshest quality produce and beautiful flavours. Nicolas Poelaert's imagination and creativity shines through and he is well deserving of The AGFG 2010 Young Chef of the Year.
Amuse bouche - Tasting Spoons
My love affair with butter continues.
Meli Melo of Vegetables, Emulsions & Purees, Home Grown and Foraged Herbs & Flowers
Not the tastiest dish, but definitely a winner for the ladies. An edible garden of the freshest herbs, vegetables and blossoms. Accompanied with mysterious dollops of brightly coloured emulsions and purees. A real pleasure to taste and test your palate.
John Dory in Squid Ink, Burnt Carrot Puree & Heirloom Vegetables
The Fish Fillet was beautifully cooked, melt in your mouth and went beautifully with the puree.
Mussels Marniere
A rich frothy broth with wonderfully fresh mussels.
Carrot Granita
Pork Fillet & Shiitake Mushroom
Pork fillet was tender and juicy, beautifully seasoned.
Provincial Cheesy Mash Potato from the South of France ($14)
Our server recommended we have the Aligot with our Wagyu course. The cheese was perfectly combined with the potatoe. Each mouthful was wonderfully velvety and it was as though the potato was infused with cheese as they were whipped beautifully into one.
Wagyu and Beetroot
An intense and vivid dish.
Sponge with Banana Puree, topped with Raspberry
I asked if I could change my cheese platter to a dessert instead, and they kindly obliged so I ended up having three exquisite desserts. This dessert was really light.
Cheese Platter
Coconut Mousse & Blackberry
Another beautifully light dessert.
Chocolate & Hazelnut Parfait, Forest Floor & Sorrel Mint Granita
This show-stopping dessert was the perfect way to end the night. Absolutely gorgeous and whimsy. A real delight. The mushroom stem was made of meringue, the mushroom cap was the parfait. Both beautifully light and a lovely combination of creamy parfait yet light and crunchy meringue. Tuile twigs, chocolate crumb soil were brilliant additions, but the icy green granita tasted less like mint, more like grass. (Surely everyone has been curious enough as a child to nibble on grass. It's not just me right? Um right?)
Food-wise, I cannot fault Embrasse one bit. Each dish was remarkably pleasing to the eye and each mouthful lived up to my visually heightened expectations. I didn't want to talk about anything else other than the thoughtfulness and artful plating, the elements of each course and how it came together beautifully, the pleasure each course brought, and the anticipation of the next course. One of my favourite tasting menus in Melbourne to date.

Here's a not-so-unusual burglary report, this one from the 100 block of Spalding Trail:
A man reported someone forced entry into his apartment and took a laptop, PS3, cell phone and jewelry.
TIP: If you rent, look into renter's insurance. Also, take your digital camera or video and make a document of your valuables, remembering to list the serial numbers and any other important information so that you can list them on your insurance papers or even better, claim them if recovered.
We have tons of unclaimed property that is auctioned off periodically.
7400 block of Roswell Road: A man reported he left his car running outside a convenient store while he grabbed a bite to eat inside. Someone got into the car and drove off.
Don't even need to say anything here do I?
A woman reported someone used her ID to open an account at a bank in Nashville, TN. The suspect placed $175 in the account. They returned a short time later and deposited a check, later found fraudulent, for $1,900 into the account — less $1,700 they cashed out at the time of the deposit. When the account revealed the check was fake, the victim was notified.
Other things
6075 Roswell Road: Two women called the police to the Taboo 2 club and reported a man came up to them asking them to dance. When they refused, he spilled a drink on them. His version: They spilled a drink on him.
We should have billed them for the officer's time on this one.
800 block of Marseilles Drive: A man reported his friend slashed his tires and later admitted on the phone that he did it. The man did it because the victim had a "hook-up" with the suspect's girlfriend.
4500 block of Roswell Road: Danielle called the police and said she and her live-in boyfriend Cody got into an argument. He left the apartment and she ran after him, chasing him around for awhile. No charges were filed. Both were said to be drinking.
Free teen/parent driver education class
SSPD's traffic unit is putting on a free driver education class (P.R.I.D.E. — Parents Reducing Injury and Driver Error) at the police precinct on Tuesday Feb. 16, from 6-8pm.
This is a teen/parent two-hour course designed to help parents and their new teen drivers, ages 14-17, learn what they need to do during the 40 hours of supervised practice driving time. The class also covers a variety of traffic laws and concerns such as speeding, seatbelts and distracted driving (text messaging/cell phone usage).
This program is instructed and sponsored by the Sandy Springs Police Department. The class addresses driver attitude, knowledge and behavior rather than a technical hands-on driver training course.
While completion of this course may reduce insurance rates (depending on your carrier), it does not count toward the required 40 hours of supervised driving practice.
Registration is limited and based on first come first serve basis. Email Officer Shelly Weed or call her at (770)-551-6939.

I hope this driver's training class also teaches the adults. I see so many adults driving as if they have no idea of what driving is all about. Of course, I see police drive the same way…..Sigh

Answer, there is a reason for this. We moved here back in 1995, took the written and driving test because we were from out of state, and have NEVER been tested since, but for the eye test upon our first renewal. Nay, we have never even BEEN to a DL office in over 10 years now, simply renewing through the mail. People simply don't know the driving laws of Ga. Watch what happens next time you come upon a FLASHING traffic control light after a storm. EVERYONE from all 4 directions will stop, which is what you do IF the light is dark (like a 4 way stop intersection), instead of following the flashing signal light for your lane.

I think a parent-teen driver error prevention class is a great idea. Parent-teen driving classes should be a requirement for all drivers who get their licenses at the age of 16. Unfortunately, many of those perfect parents are not going to think their perfect teens will need it. The roads in metro Atl have become so very congested in the last 20 years. It's not the same driving experience as it was.

I've had renters insurance for years now, with the same company as my car insurance. My apartment recently was burglarized, and the estimated value of things that were taken was over $2,000. Guess how much my renters insurance is giving me to buy new stuff? $400. Yep. That will take care of the Wii. What about the TV? The dvds? The xbox360? The digital camera? All the games? Yeah. Good stuff.
February 10th, 2010
8:37 am
Hard-Working: that was part of the cause of an accident I was in back in October 2009. The power had gone out the night before due either to a storm or high winds, and an intersection I frequently go through had traffic lights on the fritz. The road I was driving down had flashing yellow; the other had flashing red. If the light is flashing yellow, that means you have the right of way, but proceed with caution. The flashing red means you come to a complete stop, and do not make a move until you deem it safe to do so. The sun was in my eyes at the time, so I could not see the car making the left turn until I was inches from her, and by then it was too late to stop. The responding officer took down our statements, and issued her a citation for failure to stop at a red light, although I think she did, but she may have misjudged the distance between our two cars, and my speed.
February 10th, 2010
8:39 am
One thing I forgot to mention: when the responding officer reported, I told him that the sun was in my eyes. He looked, and while we were at an angle where it wasn't (pulled off into the QuikTrip right at the intersection), he had radioed for either an officer to direct traffic, due to the blinking lights and, in his words, "the sun was making things 'blotto'", or else for DOT to reset the lights.

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Sandy Springs for adding P.R.I.D.E. to your community services repertoire! I'm a P.R.I.D.E. instructor who has been assisting Suwanee PD for the last four years with their program and I LOVE teaching it! For the longest time Suwanee was one of the only departments in the area offering the course and seeing this information makes me very, very happy!
Parents, please take the time, just two short hours, to take this course with your teen! I promise you will NOT regret it. Even if your teen already has their license, it an awesome course which offers a lot of eye opening information to both new drivers and those who have had their license for a long time!!
Kudos to you Sandy Springs PD!

Ætherion is a freeware Role-Playing Game made in RPG Maker VX by the same team that made Avarice — Anaryu, Krisanna, and Solitayre. It was made in one month for a contest, the theme of which was surrealism.The world of Ætherion is in constant danger of the malicious Raythe, evil spirits from another plane. They feed on human emotions and desires, taking the form of whatever their target is most frightened of. To prevent the Raythe from destroying the entire world, the Institute of Æther Research and Containment (ARC) was created. The Institute trains the most skilled magical students in the world to combat the Raythe and hold them at bay. They are constantly researching the Raythe and their strange home dimension, the Æther, to be more effective at fighting them. Their ultimate goal is to destroy the Raythe permanently, though they have a ways to go before accomplishing that.The story centers around a young man by the name of Edan Mekaisto, a country boy who was recently selected to join the Institute. He's not the sharpest tool in the shed, but he hopes to fulfill ARC's expectations. Things go awry while he tries to find a mentor, however, and he soon finds himself wrapped up in the adventures of two older students, Flynn van Lucia and Alaria Reinhardt. Both of them seem to at odds with one another, and seem to have a Dark and Troubled Past.Gameplay-wise, Ætherion uses a battle system that is similar to Grandia's. A fast-paced ATB-like system is used, and the casting times of skills are major components of the strategy. Being hit while casting delays the technique, and if the casting energy is completely reduced to zero, the caster loses their turn. Each character also has two sets of skills — attack and support — with three skill levels on each. Characters can use weaker low-level skills to build up energy and unleash a powerful third-level skill.The game can be downloaded here. Due to the game's positive reception, the developers have expressed a desire to continue the storyline with new installments in the future. When this will happen has not been announced, however.
Ætherion provides examples of the following tropes:

The First Muslim
The journalist Lesley Hazleton says that early sources on the prophet Muhammad are infuriatingly vague. He's described as "neither tall nor short," "neither dark nor fair," and "neither thin nor stout." Hazleton, a longtime Middle East reporter and an agnostic Jew, wanted to understand the man whose legacy continues to shape our world. Her new biography is called "The First Muslim," and Tuesday, she joins Doug to explain how a man from humble beginnings rose to be the voice and leader of his people.
Lesley Hazleton blogs at The Accidental Theologist. Among her many books are The First Muslim, After the Prophet: The Epic Story of the Shia-Sunni Split in Islam and Jezebel: The Untold Story of the Bible's Harlot Queen

I don't hunt, but I'm supportive of those who do. And I'm
amazed that anti-hunting sentiments in
Anti hunters are in two categories – moralists who object to killing animals. Their numbers don't change much. And there's no arguing with them. Anyone who feels strongly enough to protest hunting on moral grounds probably can't be persuaded. I believe the larger group of hunting opponents fall into the 'negative impact' category. These are people who've been influenced by irresponsible hunting and now see the sport as a nuisance. This folks are persuadable, and they can be won over based on the way hunters act.
If someone accidentally shoots my dog during the gun-deer season, my attitudes on hunting would change. If my car, or barn, or home had bullet holes in them, I'd be less supportive. If I have a well-armed hunting party that's tracking deer across my land without my permission, I'd have a problem with that, too. (Moreso if someone mouthed off to me if they were told to leave.) All of the activities I've described are not only unsafe, but illegal. And while I support hunting, I also support prosecuting the few who don't follow the law.
Hunters are very good at self-policing. One of the best traditions of hunting is speaking up when someone sees something unsafe. Safety is taught and passed down from older to younger hunters. Anyone who takes part in a hunt has a self-interest in safety.
There's some snow on the ground. Deer are plentiful. I wish everyone who's heading into the woods a successful and safe hunt.

Children from religious, intact families fare better, study says

What is the first book in the Bible?
* = Required Fields
WASHINGTON (BP)--Children living with both biological parents or adoptive parents who attend religious services regularly are less likely to exhibit problems at school or at home, a new analysis of national data shows.
The study by psychologist Nicholas Zill, the founder of Child Trends, and statistician Philip Fletcher found that children in such a situation -- when compared to children not living with both parents and not attending religious services regularly -- are 5.5 times less likely to have repeated a grade and 2.5 less likely to have had their parents contacted by the school because of a conduct or achievement problem.
Additionally, intact families who have regular religious participation (defined as at least weekly or monthly) are less likely to report parental stress and more likely to report a "better parent-child relationship," the analysis, which focused on families with children ages 6-17, says.
The study, co-released by the Family Research Council and more than 30 state family councils as part of FRC's Mapping America project, was based on interviews in 2003 with parents of more than 100,000 children and teens by the National Center for Health Statistics for the National Survey of Children's Health.
The data "hold[s] up after controlling for family income and poverty, low parent education levels, and race and ethnicity."
"An intact two-parent family and regular church attendance are each associated with fewer problem behaviors, more positive social development, and fewer parental concerns about the child's learning and achievement," Zill and Fletcher wrote. "Taken together, the two home-environment factors have an additive relationship with child well-being. That is, children who live in an intact family and attend religious services regularly generally come out best on child development measures, while children who do neither come out worst. Children with one factor in their favor, but not the other, fall in between ...."
The authors said that children in an intact religious family "are more likely to exhibit positive social behavior, including showing respect for teachers and neighbors, getting along with other children, understanding other people's feelings, and trying to resolve conflicts with classmates, family, or friends."
Pat Fagan, the director of FRC's Center for Family and Religion, said the study should impact social policy.
"Social science data continue to demonstrate overwhelmingly that the intact married family that worships weekly is the greatest generator of human goods and social benefits and is the core strength of the United States," he said in a statement. "Policy makers should strongly consider whether their policy proposals give support to such a family structure. Children are not the only beneficiaries but also their parents, families, communities, and all of society."

CloudStore doubles number of suppliers, gets new services under G-Cloud mark II
Summary: The government has doubled the number of suppliers that can sell their wares to public sector IT buyers through its online cloud marketplace, the CloudStore.
The number of IT suppliers able to sell their services through the public sector's CloudStore has doubled to over 450, after the government announced its second G-Cloud framework deal.
The government launched the CloudStore in February this year as an online marketplace where public sector IT buyers can purchase cloud services. The services were originally provided by 257 GCHQ-vetted companies but, under the second G-Cloud framework launched on Friday, that number has risen 458.
The second framework adds new services to the CloudStore catalogue including end-user device services, agile tools, antispam and captcha, gamification, learning management, and simulation and training. According to the Cabinet Office, there are now over 3,000 separate services on offer from the cloud marketplace's hundreds of suppliers.
While the second framework see the introduction of one of the largest software-as-a-services names – Salesforce – to the CloudStore's roster of vendors, around three-quarters of the suppliers on the framework are SMEs, the Cabinet Office said.
According to Chris Gledhill, MD of software company PDMS which has been on both G-Cloud frameworks, the CloudStore gives the public sector the opportunity to use a broader range of suppliers.
"We haven't really sold much through G-Cloud yet but nor has anybody else. But at the end of the day the amount of turnover through it is relatively small because it's new," he added.
To date, 99 purchases worth over £2.2m have been made through the CloudStore, with companies including Huddle among the early beneficiaries.
The CloudStore itself was built by UK company Solidsoft in around four weeks and it is hosted on Microsoft's cloud platform, Windows Azure.

Tonight, Tonight, a collab form 7 various artists from the clock crew, with 9 parts. After months of putting all the parts in and stuff, it's finished. This collab may not be as big as the Clock Crew Rhapsody, or the Stairway to Heaven Collab, which are good, but give this one a chance. I asked some clocks to do a collab with the song "Tonight, Tonight" by The Smashing Pumpkins. I thought it would never get done. Some parts good, some parts half-decent.
Other Artists that didn't get to be co-authored , but were involved in this:
Please enjoy this collab and VOTE FAIRLY.
P.S.- there is a preloader, it's the moon behind the title.

Setters Formation
In Delaware, predominantly an impure quartzite and garnet-sillimanite-biotite-microcline schist. Major minerals include microcline, quartz, and biotite with minor plagioclase, and garnet. Muscovite and sillimanite vary with metamorphic grade. Accessory minerals are iron-titanium oxides, zircon, sphene, and apatite. Microcline is an essential constituent of the quartzites and schists and serves to distinguish the Setters rocks from the plagioclase-rich schists and gneisses of the Wissahickon Formation.
Cockeysville Marble
In Delaware, predominantly a pure, coarsely crystalline, blue-white dolomite marble interlayered with calc-schist. Major minerals in the marble include calcite and dolomite with phlogopite, diopside, olivine, and graphite. Major minerals in the calc-schist are calcite with phlogopite, microcline, diopside, tremolite, quartz, plagioclase, scapolite, and clinozoisite. Pegmatites and pure kaolin deposits and quartz occur locally.
Massive fine-grained dark to light yellow-green serpentinite. Contacts with the Wissahickon Formation are not exposed.
Metapyroxenite and metagabbro (undifferentiated)
Light-colored coarse-grained rocks composed of interlocking grains of light colored, fibrous amphiboles, most likely magnesium-rich cummingtonite and/or anthophyllite with possible clinochlor. These rocks become finer grained and darker as hornblende replaces some of the Mg-rich amphiboles. Associated with the metapyroxenites are coarse-grained metamorphosed gabbros composed of hornblende and plagioclase. The metapyroxenites and metagabbros are probably cumulates.
Wissahickon Formation
Interlayered psammitic and pelitic gneiss with amphibolite. Psammitic gneiss is a medium- to fine-grained biotite-plagioclase-quartz gneiss with or without small garnets. Contacts with pelitic gneiss are gradational. Pelitic gneiss is medium- to coarse-grained garnet-sillimanite-biotite-plagioclase-quartz gneiss. Unit has a streaked or flasered appearance owing to the segregation of garnet-sillimanite-biotite stringers that surround lenses of quartz and feldspar. Throughout, layers of fine to medium-grained amphibolite composed of plagioclase and hornblende, several inches to <30 feet thick or as large massive bodies, are in sharp contact with the psammitic and pelitic gneisses. An attempt has been made to show some of the amphibolites mappable at the scale of the map. Granitic pegmatite is ubiquitous and occurs at all scales. Pyroxene bearing quartzite with garnet occurs locally near the contact with the Wilmington Complex. An ultramafic lens composed of cumulus layers of serpentinized peridotite, metapyroxenite, and metagabbro occurs near Hoopes Reservoir. The ultramafic lens may be correlative with the Baltimore Mafic Complex.
Coarse- to very coarse-grained granitic pegmatite with tourmaline crystals locally. Where outcrop is present, pegmatite is tabular and concordant with the regional trend of the underlying Wissahickon Formation. Lenticular xenoliths of Wissahickon gneisses occur locally in the pegmatite.
Windy Hills Gneiss
Thinly interlayered, fine- to medium-grained hornblende-plagioclase amphibolite, biotite gneiss, and felsic gneiss, possibly metavolcanic. Felsic gneisses contain quartz and plagioclase with or without microcline with minor pyroxene and/or hornblende and/or biotite. Metamorphic grade in this unit decreases from granulite facies in the northeast to amphibolite facies toward the southwest. Correlated with the Big Elk Member of the James Run Formation in Cecil County, Maryland.
Faulkland Gneiss
Predominantly fine- to coarse-grained amphibolites and quartz amphibolites with minor felsic rocks, probably metavolcanic. Major minerals are amphibole and plagioclase with or without pyroxene and/or quartz. Amphibole may be hornblende, cummingtonite, gedrite, and/or anthophyllite. Halos of plagioclase and quartz around porphyroblasts of magnetite, orthopyroxene, and garnet are common features.
Christianstead Gneiss
Coarse-grained, foliated granodioritic gneiss. Major minerals are biotite, microcline, plagioclase, and quartz. Includes thin layers of fine-grained foliated amphibolite plus large pegmatites.
Barley Mill Gneiss
Coarse-grained, foliated tonalite gneiss. Major minerals are biotite, hornblende, plagioclase, and quartz. Includes mafic enclaves or layers composed of subequal amounts of hornblende and plagioclase. Also includes a coarse-grained granitic lithology composed of biotite, microcline, plagioclase, and quartz.
Montchanin Metagabbro
Coarse-grained gabbroic and metagabbroic rocks, variably metamorphosed and deformed. Primary igneous minerals include olivine, clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene, and plagioclase.
Mill Creek Metagabbro
Coarse-grained gabbroic and metagabbroic rocks, variably metamorphosed and deformed. Primary minerals are hornblende and plagioclase.
Rockford Park Gneiss
Fine-grained mafic and fine- to medium-grained felsic gneisses interlayered on the decimeter scale. Layers are laterally continuous, but mafic layers commonly show boudinage. Felsic layers are composed of quartz and plagioclase with < 10 modal percent pyroxene. Mafic layers contain subequal amounts of plagioclase, pyroxene, and hornblende. Penetrative deformation and granulite facies metamorphism have obscured igneous fabrics and contact relationships.
Brandywine Blue Gneiss
Medium to coarse grained granulites and gneisses composed of plagioclase, quartz, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, brown-green hornblende, magnetite, and ilmenite. Mafic minerals vary from < 5-30 modal percent. A lineation due to a preferred orientation of quartz and mafic minerals is obvious on weathered surfaces. Unit contains thin, discontinuous fine-grained mafic layers.
Perkins Run Gabbronorite Suite
Fine- to coarse-grained gabbronorite and minor diorite with subophitic to ophitic textures, variably foliated or lineated. Plagioclase, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, and hornblende are major minerals; biotite and olivine locally present. Olivine typically surrounded by corona structures as described for the Bringhurst Gabbro. Contemporaneous with the Ardentown Granitic Suite.
Ardentown Granitic Suite
Medium- to coarse-grained granitic rocks containing primary orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene; includes quartz norites, quartz monzonorites, opdalites, and charnockites. Feldspar phenocrysts common. Mafic enclaves locally abundant in proximity to gabbronorites.
Bringhurst Gabbro
Coarse- to very coarse-grained gabbronoite with subophitic textures. Primary minerals are plagioclase, olivine, clinopyroxene and orthopyroxene. Olivine, where present, is surrounded by an inner corona of orthopyroxene and an outer corona of pargasitic hornblende, both with spinel symplectites. The gabbronorites locally contain abundant xenoliths of mafic Brandywine Blue Gneiss.
Iron Hill Gabbro
Black to very dark green, coarse- to very coarse-grained, uralitized olivine-hypersthene gabbronorite and pyroxenite with subophitic textures. Primary minerals are calcic plagioclase, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, and olivine. Amphibole is secondary, a pale blue-green actinolite. Olivine, when present, is surrounded by coronas similar to those in the Bringhurst Gabbro. The gabbronorite is deeply weathered leaving a layer of iron oxides, limonite, goethite, and hematite, mixed with ferruginous jasper. The jasper contains thin seams lined with drusy quartz. Contacts with the Christianstead Gneiss are covered with sediments of the Coastal Plain.
Calvert Formation
Gray to grayish-brown, clayey silt to silty clay interbedded with gray to light-gray silty to fine to coarse quartz sands. Discontinuous beds of shell are common in the sands and in the clayey silts. Found in the subsurface throughout Kent County. Interpreted to be a marine deposit. Rarely the surficial unit on the uplands in northwestern Kent County where the Columbia or Beaverdam Formations are absent. Outcrops are patchy and are too small to be shown on this map. Three major aquifers are found within the Calvert Formation in Kent County: the Frederica, Federalsburg, and Cheswold, from top to bottom, respectively (McLaughlin and Velez, 2006). Ranges up to 425 feet thick.
RI52 Quality and Geochemistry of Ground Water in Southern New Castle County, Delaware
Water samples were collected from 63 wells in southern New Castle County to assess the occurrence and distribution of dissolved inorganic chemicals in ground water. Rapid growth is projected for the study area, and suitable sources of potable drinking water will need to be developed. The growth in the study area could also result in degradation of water quality. This report documents water quality during 1991-92 and provides evidence for the major geochemical processes that control the water quality.
