If they can why can't we? Am I right? Or do we not have the right to free speech?
no you don't get to have straight pride you stupid fuck
politicians don't fight to have straight marriage banned. parents do not kick their children out of their homes because they're straight. friends do not abandon their friends once they realize they're straight. people are not assaulted by bigots for being straight. people do not commit suicide because everyone around them treated them like shit for being straight
you have nothing to be proud of. you haven't been discriminated against or insulted for being heterosexual. you haven't struggled to feel normal in a society which tells you that being queer is unnatural. you don't get a straight pride because you don't fucking need one
i cannot fucking believe that there are still people who want "straight" pride
go fuck yourself

Thank God I've never given a DAMN about what other people think when it comes to danger and evil and standing up against abuse and wrongdoing.It has probably cost me family members and friends. Too bad! All women and men need to be like me when it comes to this. If you know something is not right and u feel it, the hell with what mommy taught you or what friends and the world might think or say!! I had one call me in 1994 and start raising his voice to ME the VICTIM of what was inappropriate behavior during a work physical exam. "doctors dont look at you in a sexual way" mommy always told us. It was mr shouter's PAID job to stop the person from doing this again after we tell him, NOT The victim's. How dare you re-victimize? My ever sympathetic family member said " call a rape crisis hotline." even though i had not been assaulted like this. In 94 the 800 # never said sorry this happened to u. Thr only words the FEMALE hotline worker said after having me repeat the shit of what happened again "youre gonna be shaken up for a long time." A former male "friends" response was to change the subject by saying " I need some soap. Laundry soap." miss x

Why are they so expensive ?
Decided to make my own, well salvage from 35mm film compacts.
A 28mm and a 35mm.
Good on you! I attempted to do something similar for one of mine but couldnt get the looks right and eventually spent some spare pennies from a wee lottery bonus on a compatible 'real thing'. After all, a hot/accessory shoe mounted viewfinder is generally just a bit of target practice (depending on the lens/focal length) so a lot of the 'official' parts are just overpriced plastics
So far I`ve stripped a 35mm compact fitted with a 35mm lens, so the viewfinder shows 35mm within the frame lines, just waiting for the glue to dry.
Its looking good so far, paid 99p for the camera in a charity shop, better than paying £150 for something that will not be any better.
Glue is dry, here it is, used other parts of the old casing to tidy it up leaving it pretty neat.
Circled is the part needed.
And here it is, its attached to my x10 here, but this and the 28mm viewfinder will be used with the GF2.
Still got a few edges to file then a lick of paint, serial numbers from the base of the old camera, that will be disappearing
Quote: Reckon you have a dud camera! My X10 has a viewfinder
Discovered today I may not need to make a second.
Taking into account the M4/3 crop factor the and using the sides of the frames lines, it more or less covers 28mm.
I went a step further today, added wooden side panels. they just need rubbing down with fine sand paper and varnishing now.
I`ve got around to building a few more, this time for other people, built these using match sticks.
They just need a final rub down and varnishing.
shortly in body - matching - colours I suspect!
well done!
OK, it's late on a Friday so I'm not the sharpest tool in the box, but why would you need to do this for an X10 which already has an optical viewfinder? Oh, and it works at all focal lengths of the fixed lens, not just a couple of them. Maybe time for a Confused smiley!
No there not for the x10, this already has a viewfinder, I used one of the DIY OVF`s with the x10 to make instant comparisons, not that the x10 was very good showing just 85%.
My own OVF`s give 100% within the frame lines and more outside, there just perfect for camera`s with no viewfinder and there cheap to make.
Here`s another, this one is for somebody else, I`ve ran out of fine sand paper, its not quite finished, again this one will cover 28mm.

ASML Holding N.V. (ASML) Financial News - LRCX: Citi Ups To Buy, Sees Samsung Boost To Spending
ASML Holding N.V. (ASML)
LRCX: Citi Ups To Buy, Sees Samsung Boost To Spending
2011-07-11 10:31:21Quote: By Tiernan RayCitigroup's Timothy Arcuri this morning raised his rating on shares of Lam Research (LRCX) to Buy from Sell, and raised his rating on shares of KLA Tencor (KLAC) and ASML Holding (ASML) to Hold from Sell, writing that a "sudden and meaningful order pullback" in chip equipment has lessened the risk for the group. Lam shares are down more than 20% in recent months, he notes, and the company can benefit significantly from new orders coming from Samsung (SSNLF). "Our latest checks indicate that Samsung has made its decision to bring back a large portion of the pushed-out shipments in CQ3," writes Arcuri. "The decision is largely based on the company's view that memory pricing/demand is likely to bottom in July and start to pick up in August with back-to-school and holiday season coming up." Samsung is planning to place orders for its Line 16 NAND manufacturing line, its Line 15 DRAM line, and a "copper interconnect fab" to go with it, writes Arcuri. Arcuri adds that new orders for Samsung's foundry and logic business remain on hold at "Line 14," and probably will until Samsung resolves its legal disputes with Apple (AAPL), "although we do note that our Samsung analyst, Henry Kim, believes Samsung has secured some contractual obligation from AAPL through at least A6 processor and likely even A7." For the industry overall, order levels have become less challenging, he thinks. We estimate that overall industry WFE run rate is down to ~$27B in CQ2. This is meaningfully below the $32-33B expected for all of 2011 by most equipment companies and now even below the $29B we consider "normalized†WFE. This is shown in Figure 1. Arcuri thinks some of the good news may start to appear at the Sem...

L.A. Louver: Hawking and Hockney →
In celebration of renowned Cambridge University cosmologist Stephen Hawking's 70th birthday, the Science Museum, London, UK is exhibiting a display of objects and papers from Hawking's archive, chronicling his remarkable life and momentous achievements. Included in the exhibition is an early portrait of Professor Hawking, created by David Hockney in 1978. Which lead the museum to inquire if Hockney would be interested in producing an iPAD portrait of Hawking on occasion of the exhibition. Both Hockney and Hawking were thrilled at the prospect, and work on the portrait began soon after. For the duration of this celebratory exhibition, the museum will display an animated iPAD portrait of the famed cosmologist, emerging from a blank screen with each recorded stroke of the artist's hand.
To see more works by David Hockney, don't miss the chance to visit his current exhibition "David Hockney: A Bigger Picture" at the Royal Academy, now in it's final weeks!

8,000 runners conquer the streets of Kuala Lumpur for Nike City 10k
Courtesy of Nike Malaysia
The city race was an immense success in its aim of inculcating the passion for running amongst local youths with over 63% of total runners registering for the Under-25 category.
Runners gathered as early as 6am at the KLCC Outdoor Car Park as they waited eagerly for the flag-off at 7.15am for both 5km and 10km routes. Through the course, runners conquered the city's well known roads such as Jalan Bukit Bintang and Jalan P. Ramlee, and the Ampang-KL Elevated Highway (AKLEH) that provided a scenic backdrop of the city's impressive skyline to those running the 10km route.
A host of local celebrities and bloggers including Adi Fashla of ERA FM, Ean Nasrun of Hitz.FM, Sarah Lian, Niki Cheong, Jason Goh and Arafah were amongst the runners who were seen gearing up at the start line. Hitz.FM morning crew DJ was on hand to spur runners on as they crossed the finish line.
Nike Malaysia went one step further to ensure a premium race experience for runners with engaging performances positioned in key zones along both race routes to motivate and energize runners. Every two kilometers along the race route was represented by four genres of music - hip hop, disco, pop-rock and rock with pulsating performances by Malaysian acts Joe Flizzow, Pop Shuvit, Estranged, One Buck Short, Bunkface, Forty Winks, Sona and DJ Krate.

Most Recent Store Reviews for Teleflora
5 stars
Always get it right
Every year I use Teleflora (via FW!) and the recipients have always been tickled and I've saved big bucks using the coupons available on FW. Arrangements always haave arrived on time even when ordered a month out and again they're well done and appreciated.
1 stars
other review was accurate--did not honor cash back
Flowers were great, no complaints about product. Very disappointed that they did not honor cash back even though order was made through fatwallet.
1 stars
I can't say anything about the product because the product was never delivered! This is the worst experience I have ever had with any company. I wish I could give them negative stars.
Everytime I buy anything I not only think about me, but I also think about the vendor. I understand the retail business and I hate making problems. You'll never see me walk into a store 15 minutes before closing time because I know how it feels to have someone come in at the last minute.
With that in mind, I placed an order with Teleflora for a nice bouquet for my wife for Valentine's day. So, before placing the order, I searched all the florist around my wife's work to make sure I choose one that is close by (so the florist doesn't have to drive far away). I also wanted to give them enough time to get my order ready and put me on the schedule. So then I placed the order 10 days before Valentine's day (Feb 4). I chose a florist that was close by that had excellent reputation based on internet comments. I know that Valentine's day is crazy for any florist, so I thought by giving them 10 days they should be able to take care of this order with no issues. Eitherway, when placing the order Teleflora online ordering system tells me that for an additional $10 I can have the order to be processed as "Priority" so it can be delivered before 12PM.
So let me recap. I give them 10 days from delivery date, I choose a florist close to my wife's work, I pay extra for the "deluxe" flowers, and I am willing to pay an additional amount to make sure the flowers arrive to her.
Then it's February 14th, and it's 12:45PM, and my wife had not received the flowers. I call Teleflora the representative was surprised to hear that I placed the order 10 days in advanced. They tried calling the florist and they said they cannot get a hold of them, but they will continue trying to contact them (BS!), they ask if I want to still have the order delivered. I said yes, of course as long as it's before 5PM. I also request a $10 refund because they could not keep their promise of delivering the flowers "Priority". After fighting with the representative for a few minutes he tells me that the $10 refund will be processed.
Then it is 4:45PM and my wife tells me she has not received anything. I again proceed to contact Teleflora and the representative tells me with an attitude that they cannot deliver in the next 15 minutes. My wife gets off work at 5PM, and so they cannot deliver the flowers before then. Already frustrated with the fact that my wife is getting no flowers for Valentine's after placing the order 10 days ahead of time, I tell the representative to cancel the order and to process a full refund. He said he will do that. I ask for an email confirmation of the cancellation and refund, and he says they cannot do that.
Today is 02/21/13 and I checked my bank account to see if the refund had processed, and all I see is a $10 refund. Now pissed at Teleflora I call one more time and the representative tells me that the order was never cancelled, so now I have to wait an additional week 3 to 5 business days for the refund to show in my bank account. Now she tells me that an email has been sent telling me that the order has been cancelled. (((wait, the previous representative told me that cannot be done))).
I never leave negative reviews, but I felt that this time was necessary. My wife comes home telling me that everyone she knows received flowers except for her. I had to explain to her everything that happened. I am never placing another order from Teleflora and I will make sure everyone I know also does not use your horrible service.
I'm sorry for whoever has to read this review. I know it is lengthy, but I thought necessary for everything that needed to be said.
2 stars
Did not honor cash back on 2 orders
At least the flowers arrived as promised(I contacted delivery florist directly). But they didn't honor cashback as promised on 2 separate orders done via Fatwallet website using fatwallet provided coupon code. Disappointing...
1 stars
Terrible customer service - stay away!
I wish I could give 0 stars, because they delivered 0 flowers! I placed an order to deliver flowers to my girlfriend on Valentine's day. She wasn't home, so I expected that the florist would attempt to reschedule, but he/she never did!
When I called the company to complain, all they offered me was a 50% credit! Would anyone pay 50% for 0% flowers? On top of that, the representative blamed me for waiting for over a week to call - I was giving the florist an opportunity to reschedule, and I had tried calling for several days, only to be put on hold for 30-40 minutes at a time. Finally, after arguing with a "supervisor," my order has supposedly been cancelled.
Nonetheless, I will never order from this site again!
1 stars
Didn't deliver
Arranged to have roses delivered to my wife's office on Valentine's day. They didn't deliver them! Still waiting...maybe today...maybe tomorrow. And they charge extra for delivery on Valentine's Day! They'll be hearing from me.
1 stars
I went online two days ago to order flowers for a family friend because his mother had passed away. Generally I order through a local florist, but was having difficulty locating someone that could deliver the same day. I went to Teleflora's website and selected an arrangement, which of course, did not come up at the same price it stated online. It had shown the smallest arrangement at $29.95 plus all the fees, but when I went to order it, it came up $39.95 plus all of the fees. Out of pure desperation and against my better judgement, I went ahead and ordered the arrangement anyway. When I arrived at the funeral home, there were so many beautiful flowers! Then I got to "our" arrangement and I was so embarrassed! It was a "cheap and scrawny" rendition of the arrangement that I had ordered to say the least! Not only that, but half of the flowers looked like they were dead or dying and my fiancee's name was misspelled. I contacted the company regarding this matter. I was offered a 50% refund. I told them that was not acceptable and asked for a full refund. Their response was "to issue a full refund we will need to pick up the arrangement." Are you kidding me? First of all, the funeral was Wednesday, so I doubt the arrangement is still there. Secondly, who goes to a funeral and takes back a flower arrangement...seriously that is creepy!
2 stars
Left glass vase on step unprotected and got damaged.
Ordered flowers for my mother-in-law's birthday. When they delivered she wasn't home so they just left the flowers on her step. The flowers were not in any sort of container or box to stabilize them so of course they fell over and the glass vase got damaged. I contacted Teleflora with my concerns and no one has gotten back to me. Would not use again, or recommend. I gave them two stars because she did say the flowers were beautiful!

Yahoo has added some mapping features to Yahoo Travel, using AJAX to add layered images right on a Yahoo Map. For example, a map of the Boston Freedom Trail can be overlayed on a map of the city. Or a map of the Philadelphia International Airport can be matched to the highway map.
The opacity of the layers can be adjusted, so a user can choose to see one or the other map, or a mix of the two.
Greg Sterling has more details at his Screenwerk blog, and says that he expects the functionality to be extended to other parts of Yahoo, including local search, in the near future.

New Mexico is definitely overlooked when it comes to awesome states. No, we don't have the Golden Gate Bridge or the Statue of Liberty but we're a pretty cool state….
Protesters got off topic yesterday in ABQ. People need to stop drawing a hard line in the sand concerning this APD situation, because both "sides" have behaved "good and bad".
The protest that occurred on Tues, March 25th, was a non-violent, intelligent protest against the APD's chronic issues with excessive force and unnecessary shootings in recent years. Some things are broken with APD and need change, and I support that.
The protest that occurred on Sunday? …turned into a chaotic gathering of angsty, angry goons who seemed to have no message other than "let's have a destructive party in the streets for 10 hours."
Sometimes Burquenos make me feel embarrassed. Use your heads. Your message wasn't a positive or productive one.

It has all the right engineering details was the only intelligent answer I could come up with. This is something Hoyt's designers are really good at. For 2008, Hoyt's newest flagship bow is the Katera. Let's take a look at why this bow should be on your next wish list.
It's Fast!
If you're into all-out speed, the Katera will make you salivate. With an advertised IBO speed of 330 fps, this makes it the fastest bow Hoyt has ever sent through the production lines.
But a speed bow as the new flagship model? Aren't speed bows for expert shooters, not the average run-of-the-mill bowhunter, which most flagship bows are intended for? Well, the Katera puts a new spin on all this traditional thinking.
After shooting this bow, I was blown away by its dull thump at the shot and tack-driving, arrow-smacking ability. Also, it's important to note that my arrows were flying at around 280 fps with only 27 inches of draw!
Compared to my '07 Vectrix, the Katera is about identical in design and length, only the Katera's riser sweeps back a bit more to give it the lower brace height (6 inches versus Vectrix's 7). This additional inch of power stroke automatically ups arrow speed by 15 fps. The Katera is also noticeably lighter than last year's Vectrix yet it still maintains the easy-to- carry balance of all TEC-risers.
But, as you may know, a lower brace height typically makes a bow more difficult to shoot accurately. The longer the power stroke, the longer the arrow nock stays on the string, making even slight hand torque a major problem to shooting accuracy.
Shorter brace heights also bring the bowstring closer to your bow arm, increasing the chance of string slap to occur as the string moves forward at the shot, which in turn creates torque and disturbance to arrow flight. These items normally make a speed-bow harder to shoot accurately.
StealthShot & TEC Riser
Darin Cooper, Hoyt's Senior Product Design Engineer, believes the Katera's innovative technology drastically changes the shooting nature of a low-brace bow.
"With the Katera, I think that brace height is more a matter of your performance needs and your intended usage rather than having a significant impact on how forgiving the bow will be," he said.
"On Hoyt's TEC risers there is very little torque transmitted to the handle, so tuning issues and torque don't impact accuracy as they might on other short brace-height bows."
"Also, as long as you have bowstring clearance for your hunting clothing or a string stop is installed (like our StealthShot Accessory) to keep the string from hitting your clothing, the accuracy difference and forgiveness between a 6-inch and 7-inch brace-height bow will be difficult if not impossible to notice. However, you may have to use a little stiffer arrow with a 6-inch brace height bow because the power-stroke driving the arrow is an inch longer than the 7-inch brace height bow."
Z3 Cam
The new Z3 Cam & 1/2 System on the Katera is nothing short of amazing - and is the key feature I believe that will quickly sell people into the bow. This system was designed for all-out rocket arrow speed, but it doesn't have the harsh draw cycle of other radically designed systems. On your very first pull, you'll have a hard time telling which system is smoother - last year's Vector or the new Z3, yet the Z3 is about 5 fps faster. The draw cycle was obviously designed with bowhunters in mind.
While shooting the Katera, I enjoyed the cam's smooth transition into the valley - there's no harsh, twitchy narrow-valley feel here. Of course, the cam is equipped with a firm stop, so you can aim with solid pressure against the wall until the shot just goes.
I've always been a forgiving bow kind of a guy. When hunting, I want my arrow to find the spot, despite making some shot mistakes. That's all part of high-adrenaline bowhunting. For this reason, I've always steered clear of short-brace bows.
However, after shooting the Katera, I'm very tempted to enter the speed-bow side. It's simply too sweet to pass up.
Bottom Line
Two key factors to this bow's success: the StealthShot string-stop feature and the all-new Z3 Cam & 1/2 System. The Katera comes with all the speed you could ever want, but with enough shootability for average shooters.
Katera Specifications
Peak Draw weights: 40 to 80 pounds
Draw lengths: 24 to 30 inches
Axle-to-axle length: 33 inches
Limbs: XT 500, 12 inches long
Riser: machined aluminum
Grip: Pro Fit Grip
Eccentrics: Z3 Cam & 1/2
Brace Height: 6 inches
Mass Weight: 4.5 pounds
Advertised IBO speed: 330 fps
Color: Realtree All-Purpose Green
Notable Highlights
- Z3 Cam & 1/2 is super fast yet draws like silk.
- TEC Riser provides torque free shooting, low shock, and excellent balance, with or without a stabilizer.
- Hoyt's ProFit grip will meet an archer's preferences - shoot the all-wood grip, or remove for a super narrow "self grip."
- If you have a fairly long draw length or have always preferred longer, more forgiving bows, be sure to check out the 36-inch-long Katera XL or the revamped 7-inch-brace-height Vectrix Plus with the new Z3 Cam.

Charity Art Auctions: Warrior Wonder Woman and Steampunk Lara Croft Bundles
Hello everyone! I've just listed two original art bundles on eBay to support a pair of great causes.
The first is an original Steampunk Lara Croft art bundle on to benefit the Mercy Corps and their work aiding Typhoon Haiyan survivors. The second bundle features original Warrior Wonder Woman art to benefit the American Red Cross and those displaced by the recent tornados across the Midwest.
Both packages feature a polished color illustration and concept sketch from the immensely talented Tess Fowler, as well as a signed cosplay photo of myself in the ensemble she inspired.
Check out the links for more details on the auctions, and let me know if you've got any questions about the art!
I'd super appreciate any reblogs you can spare - I'd like to get the word out there and nab a sizable donation for each piece!
Cosplay Tutorial: Battle Hardened Makeup
I'm often asked how I do my makeup for my "battle hardened" costumes - Warrior Wonder Woman, Anya Stroud, Gabrielle Belmont, and so on. Here's a quick rundown of what I use and how I apply it. :)
SDCC Showcase: Warrior Wonder Woman!
Had an absolute blast wearing Warrior Wonder Woman at SDCC. Surprisingly, I made it all day hauling around the incredibly heavy shield, proving that the dedicated lifting these past few months has yielded some results!
For anyone who hasn't seen this costume before, it's an original collaboration between artist Tess Fowler and I. I've always adored Diana's Amazon roots, and wanted to pay tribute to that aspect of her legacy. Tess helped me flesh out the design, and then I went to work on the costume!
More photos coming soon - Ljinto and I worked some magic together! :D

First Look at "Warrior Wonder Woman"
I can't believe the stars aligned and I finished this costume in time to debut at SOFA 2012 in Bogota, Colombia.
Inspired by an original design artist Tess Fowler and I collaborated on, the concept draws from several iterations of Wonder Woman throughout the years, peppered with original elements. While I adore Linda Carter's version of Wonder Woman ("In your satin tights, fighting for your rights!"), I've always preferred the first lady of comics as a warrior. An Amazon. A total BAMF. We'll debut the full illustration at a later date!
I'll also put together extensive build notes and credits soon, but a huge shout out goes to Thomas Ignatius, who's been my leatherworking mentor over the last few months. I constructed all of the costume (armor, props, skirt, belt, and so on) aside from the corset. Having never made one this complex, Tom and I knocked out the corset over a very long day, with me playing assistant. His incredible skill with leather shines through in the shape and fit of it. Perfect. I then took the corset home detailed it with the eagle crest, rivets, and dirt/blood.
Also, a side thank you to God Save the Queen Fashions, who inspired me to try my hand at leather working!
Hope you like the photos! More to come later tonight

The 2008 Vasse Felix Chardonnay is pale straw in color with a bright green tinge. The aroma is fresh, with fragrant hints of lemon and lime, white peach and honeydew. Subtle, complex aromas of yeast character and apple cinnamon and clove are imparted partly from the French oak. A vibrant palate with fresh, crisp acidity hints at a more modern style of Australian Chardonnay. The flavors are clean, fresh and subtle; however a lovely underlying complexity exists with savory elements from the portion of natural ferment and new French oak. The wine finishes long and clean with hints of oak spice and fresh citrus and stone fruit.
"Vasse Felix's 2008 Chardonnay is a remarkable value. It was partially wild yeast fermented and 86% of the wine was aged in French oak, 42% new on its lees with batonnage. It delivers a bouquet of toast, biscotti, baked apple, and tropical notes. This is followed by an intensely flavored, elegant Chardonnay with superb balance and a lengthy, fruit-filled finish. It offers outrageous bang for the buck."

Thanks, Rich. I wrote "emphatic" and meant what I wrote: I was thinking about the various people helping each other, but especially Abby who emphatically meant to help the homeless girl, regardless of whether she wanted help or not. She helped her emphatically, forcefully, with full intent.
Yes, the clinic director seemed so obvious, right from the get-go. Mild-mannered, busy, and the focus was completely on him for the whole scene. It's almost formulaic lately: the camera gives us a hard focus on a character that seems inconsequential. And there's your suspect. I agree with you about the opportunity for a PSA.
You're right on when you say that Stan has cracked. He just doesn't know it yet. For a while now he's been flirting with the American way of life, and loving it, as we saw with the new car episode. Up until now, killing others for the sake of the cause hasn't been that big of an issue, but suddenly it's becoming a really big deal for him. The more deaths occur because of him, the more despairing he seems to get. And now he's angry and dangerous and perhaps a little out of control. What agent in their right mind would risk exposing himself as he did when he visited the pastor? As soon as he stepped into the man's office, his facade was down, and the pastor could easily see he is a dangerous man. I loved this episode, as dark as it was, and can't wait to see what happens next.
Great episode! And yes, I'm certain Mycroft has everything to do with Joan's kidnapping. Another point: Holmes said he was "without peer" - he also said that being in such a state threatens his sobriety. Notice how he kept the heroin organization's phone number and hid it away in a book? I think that's the key point - we are witnessing the seeds of Holmes' downfall, or potential downfall. He might not have a peer but he holds onto Joan like a lifeline, because she's the closest he has to a peer. Take her away, and all bets are off. Could that be what Mycroft is after? Is that what he wants for his brother? And who is his mysterious partner - would Moriarty be so cruel?
Thanks for a very well considered comment. In fact, I could envision a D.A. looking at #2 and putting himself in the a defines attorney's shoes. In fact, the bartender did what many bartenders do, so it was a common practice, where the incidence of death is so rare as to be almost non-existent. Further, he was trying to help the guy by ensuring they both went opposite directions from each other. His intent was not to injure but actually to prevent injury. No jury in the world would convict him. A competent D.A. would consider the case not winnable and probably would as a result likely decline to prosecute.
Jean, I don't think the "seek professional help" comment was directed at you.
Oleg is a bit of a daredevil. You can see the seeds of his downfall almost immediately. He took Nina out for a night on the town, despite her protests that it's too risky. I envision a scene coming up where Stan spots them together. That's when the tables will turn.
Even though I read the books (a long time ago), Joffrey's death came as a shock. My money's on Oberyn, who has sworn revenge. The thing is: the agent of poison might not have been the wine, but the pie or whatever it is he was munching on. Did you notice that right after Joffrey cleaved the dessert with his sword, the camera swung back to the food, only for a moment? This show is not known for making mistakes or having continuity or edit problems. Each act is deliberate and has meaning.
I don't understand your anger. Criminal Minds has always featured a back story on one or more of their characters, littered through through the series every season. Nothing's changed, and it hasn't become a soap opera. As for JJ having authority on matters of the heart - she is first and foremost Morgan's friend. Friends have the authority to speak on what they know to their friends, even if it might not be initially accepted. I think their inter-reaction here was as real as it gets. JJ's not advising "a man" as you put it - she's talking with Morgan, her friend. Fair weather friends might not tell you the truth, but real friends will. I get the sense you just don't like JJ, period.
Is it me or are the writers failing to bring a decent end to the latest episodes of BBT? The last episode ended with Sheldon unable to decide between getting the XBoxOne or the PS4. This one ended with a question mark too. No matter how great the episode might be, you have to end on a strong note.

How can we get the facts on what really makes humans tick?
The Venus project, Zeitgeist Movement, living in a cave all have one thing in common; they made the assumption that humans can change their minds through re-education, pain and suffering (from a crashing existing system). But can they? Seriously, is it biologically possible for the majority of the human race (average Joes) to embrace logic and reason over their baser instincts and emotions?
Genetic research (especially behavioural genetics and epigenetic) is in its infancy, we dont have enough facts to confirm or reject the hypothesis that humans act-react the way they do because of how genes structured their psyche. Human psyche development and research, due to nature and-or nurture, is the key to solving ALL of our problems.
I propose we go further than the human genome project, further than general anthropology, I propose we really look deep into the biological variables of our mind and body and confirm or reject once and for all this nature and/or nurture circus show and find out what we really want, need, desire as homo sapiens.
Once we do, we can proceed with the second phase of human development, change the way we think (through science and/or re-education) OR shape our future society around how we naturally are. There is no right or wrong, only facts and science to help us move along and cease the pseudo-science guessing game of what we want and what we should do for the future.
How can we plan for the future if we dont even know what we are-arent?

Adon HsuMay 22 2013: The logical response would be to save the child because it would be an irrational waste of human resource to just let him/her die, provided that you are capable of saving the child instead of dying along with him/her. If we leave it to emotion and instinct, there will be those who WILL NOT save the child, even if it poses no risk to him/her due to whatever personal illogical/irrational reason they may have.
Logic and reason come from science and facts that are continually being confirmed/rejected through research and discovery, they cannot be corrupted and will always dictate maximum efficiency due to the nature of our universe, which is to operate at the lowest possible energy configuration (look up quantum physic, I cant post them all here)
Human emotions are a more evolved version of animal instincts and like all biological behaviours, they will change, be genetically turned on/off and even phased out from our biology if we let evolution and our living environment, both man made and natural to take their respective course.
I do not propose we eliminate or suppress our emotion/instinct, I propose we study them in depth, find out how efficient they are in relevance to our current and future societal requirement. In natural evolution, there is no right or wrong, only what works and what doesnt, its like nature's version of logic and reason, but slow and error prone. Did you know all living things have parts of their body that doesnt work well with their environment and may actually kill the species off in the long run? (which happened to quite a few species that couldnt evolve fast enough)
If we leave it to nature, we will be playing Russian roulette with our future, any numbers of environmental, natural or man-made elements-factors can lead us into an early grave.
We have to know more about ourselves and our universe. Get the blueprint, then built the system, not the other way around.

Run The Line Half Marathon
Texarkana, TX • Sunday, February 16, 2014 •
Course Map
As part of a joint effort by Texarkana's local nonprofit Partnership For The Pathway and the Team Texarkana Running Club, the Run The Line Half Marathon takes place in the late winter and brings out around 500 runners and walkers each year for an out-and-back loop through the city, along what organizers hope will become a multi-use pathway for walking, running, biking and inline skating across the city.
Because it straddles the state line between Texas and Arkansas, this is one of those rare running events that takes participants literally across two states over the course of the race, hence the event's title, "Run The Line." For this race, runners start the 13.1-mile course in downtown Texarkana, at the corner of Pine Street and West Broad Street, and run a counter-clockwise loop through the city. After about the first mile along Broad, the course turns left onto the Nix Creek Trail, which takes runners off-road and onto the trail's 10-ft.-wide paved surface.
Once on the paved trail, runners then follow Nix Creek northward for the next two to three miles, running along the tree-lined pathway until reaching Pinson Drive, where the field exits the pathway and runs back onto city streets. Participants turn onto West 48th Street and then south onto Jefferson Avenue before turning again, west onto Arkansas Boulevard, which takes them on a straightaway toward Spring Lake Park.
At Spring Lake Park, runners follow the trail that takes them in and around the circumference of the park, whose 75 acres feature a six-field baseball complex, an 18-hole disc golf course and a five-acre concert amphitheater area.
Runners follow the park's half-mile walking trail all the way around, exiting onto South Park Road and then meeting up with Texas Boulevard. After a couple more turns, the course then takes runners onto Olive Street, which they follow for a long straightaway (plus a couple of last-mile turns) toward the finish line on West Broad.
The course is described by organizers as fast and flat throughout, with only a few gentle hills scattered throughout the course. The race starts at 8:00 AM and runners have a three-hour time limit to finish the course.
Race Weather & Climate

Boring House!
January 4, 2013 in Design Dilemma
Can't decided on front door color and if I should add shutters to the windows. If shutters are a good idea what color to paint them?
I agree, no shutters. I like the idea of painting the door a shade lighter than the bottom color. Or you could do a bright color depending on your comfort level with that. Red, or chartreuse? Also a new path with lighting or a little patio out front. Love that big window!

Okay no shutters. Keep coming with ideas. Landscaping ideas would help also!

The luxury house has teamed up with Swiss fine timepiece firm Audemars Piguet to create a new movement for an exclusive version of its best-selling J12 wristwatch that will be introduced at retail in September.
Called J12 Calibre 3125, a reference to the Audemars movement it uses, the watch riffs on the stylistic hallmarks of Chanel's existing J12 model by coming in black ceramic and yellow gold. It boasts a 42 mm. face and an expected retail price of around 19,000 euros, or $28,080 at current exchange.
"We share many of the same values as Audemars Piguet," said Philippe Mougenot, president of Chanel's watch and jewelry division. "We are both family owned, independent houses with a shared passion for quality and excellence. We don't usually do partnerships at Chanel. This is a first."
Mougenot said the collaboration came naturally after the two firms consulted about Audemars furnishing a new movement for a Chanel watch.
"Often companies don't publicize who makes the movement," said Mougenot. "But we wanted a transparent approach."
Mougenot, who unveiled the watch alongside Georges-Henri Meylan, who runs Audemars, said the collaboration was meant to be a long one, with other products to follow.
"It's not a limited edition," he said of the watch, of which a few hundred are expected to be made at first. "It's limited production." Though Mougenot stressed the partnership was not meant as a ploy to bring Chanel more "legitimacy" in the fine watchmaking arena, in which it already has had great success, he admitted the watch was designed to target serious male watch collectors.
Fine Swiss watches have been booming over the last few years, spurred by a largely male clientele. Brands like Audemars, one of the top-shelf names in the industry — and one of the few that makes its own movements — have profited greatly. Meylan, for instance, said 2007 was a "record" year for the firm, underscoring the positive momentum for brands skewed to the high end. Audemars produced 27,500 pieces last year.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
A decent guide, I have one criticism.
You take the time to note that Mage-Lord Ulom can be zerged down by a sufficiently geared group, but make no such mention for the first two bosses. In fact, Ulom is the most dangerous of the three thanks to the perfect storm generated by his abilities.
The damage done by Drakos the interrogator is so low that I almost always cast Earth Shield and DPS without casting another heal. Even in undergeared/skilled groups, people rarely go below 80% of their health. There's similarly no reason to run away from him following a magic pull, as he'll simply pull you right back in. Just zerg him down.
Varos Cloudstrider is more dangerous thanks to Amplify Magic, but ultimately he too can be zerged down without much issue. It's good practice to avoid the cone of damage and the lazers, but rarely necessary. The biggest risk here was accidentally aggroing Drakes, which was made nearly impossible by Blizzard.
Ulom, however, will kill even good groups if they get sloppy. Most groups that try and Zerg him down do not have the sense to move him behind a pillar as a precaution, and as such when he teleports the tank and all the melee find themselves as far from a pillar as possible in the middle of a frost patch. This is often lethal.
Even if it isn't, by this point all the melee will have stacked the Frost Bomb debuff to a dangerous level. This places a huge strain (relative to heroics) on the healer. If they are not prepared or geared, you can easily lose members who survived the Arcane Explosion.
Finally, even if the healer manages to barely keep the group alive through that, a single well placed Time Bomb can spell disaster. The damage done is equivalent to the difference between the debuffed player's current and maximum health. A 50k health tank with 10k health will instantly kill everyone nearby when it goes off.
If you're remotely concerned about zerging the first two bosses, you shouldn't consider zerging Mage-Lord Ulom.
