A facilitator is someone who helps a group of people understand their common objectives and assists the group in planning and achieving their objectives without taking a particular position in the discussion. Facilitators focus on the process as opposed to the content of a meeting. Groups throughout Michigan and the United States are working to solve the most pressing problems we face today and trained facilitators can help those groups come to a consensus on their best ideas. Michigan State University Extension provides facilitative leadership programs.

I've been seeing a recent crop up of a lot more music reviewers hitting the scene lately, but something with music reviewers lately has been bugging me. I love that more people are doing it, but at the same time there's a fair amount of people that seem to be going into it, through an already biased and uninformed angle.
The most common thing reviewed by music reviewers in this community these days is pop, but I think the question is rarely asked, do any of the pop reviewers even WANT to like pop? Pop is a common target because it's everywhere and is also easy to make fun of. But sadly lately with recent trends in pop I'm seeing a lot of reviewers, including some on channel awesome, go into it pretty uneducated about where pop is at this current time, and that's where I feel I have a bit of a leg up.
Pop music lately has been heavily influenced by the EDM and Dance music scenes, thanks in large part to the large market there is for stuff played at nightclubs around the world. Where as in the 80s and the 90s the majority of pop would have much more simplistic use of electronic sound and something simple like drum machines, now they're using MUCH more advanced sounds that only really exist in a DJ's mixing software. Not only that but many DJs who are already worldwide famous in the EDM scene such as David Guetta, Calvin Harris, and Benny Benassi are collaborating with pop artists now to create new chart toppers. Often times they know that music isn't their best, but they do know one thing. They're catchy, they'll get played in clubs, and they will MAKE THEM MONEY.
But there comes my rub with music reviewers lately. I'm still amazed how many times I have to explain simple EDM concepts or even fight with people to explain that EDM, or techno in laymans terms, largely follows a lot of the same music theory concepts that govern all music, or even pass through the barrier that it's more than "just noise". It's not just a couple of blips and bloops on a computer, I could give a whole lecture on what goes in to just a house track without even touching on dubstep or trance or drum and bass.
This goes for pop music as well. There's a lot of conventions and theory that goes into composing everything pop from Ke$ha to One Direction to Katy Perry. I use these often slammed examples because contrary to popular belief even if they're not writing their own material whoever is knows a thing or two about music theory and is working some sort of music magic to create them. And when you actually take a more objective lens to them you'll find they aren't bad and well made for the target audience.
So then why do I see so many reviewers seemingly ignoring this theory, or worse completely missing the mark on what the music really is. Pop has many conventions and principles unique to it, that can be used to see it from a pop analysts perspective. But these seem to keep being ignored in favor of "Raaah, I hate this song and I hate this artist RAAH!!!" It makes me wonder, how many reviewers actually go into pop even willing to like it? If your mind is made up that you hate pop, or worse you don't even like pop, then why are you reviewing it?
There's a whole subculture dedicated to hating pop music, and I think that's the stance where a lot of music reviewers in this community come from. They hate pop, their audience want to hate pop, so no matter what it's not getting a fair shake. Me, I'm different, I like pop. I might be the only music reviewer in this community who's actually gone dancing at a nightclub regularly for any period of time and enjoyed it. I've seen countless DJs live, and I have a huge list of pop remixes on my iPod. If you just automatically slam pop, or even claim something is just noise or what have you, then that comes across to me as rather ignorant and uneducated in terms of music and I'm not sure I can trust your opinion.
There still some awesome people reviewing music out there, but it's very tough for me as perhaps the only person who's been very close to the actual target audience of current pop, as well as an enthusiast of EDM who's seen the bleed in effect of techno into pop, see people review pop when it seems they don't really understand the genre, or have confessed that from the start they don't like it. You want to be a hater, well the go hate, but I don't feel you should be a hater if you're going to attempt to give an honest critique of pop music. If you don't like it, and you're doing your show out of your hatred for the genre, then you're putting a HUGE amount of energy into hating something. And no matter how much I may try to say otherwise, you've already made your mind up before you even get on camera, that you hate pop.
But then again this is just the opinion of one guy, and at that a minority in this community. I know I'm one of the few people in this community who actually can enjoy pop, and perhaps the ONLY person who follows the current EDM scene. I can't tell you how to make your videos, if you disagree about this stuff make them how you want to make them. But these are just my thoughts as a critic, an analyst, and a music fan.

Women's military uniform by Abercrombie & Fitch, 1917 US, the Met Museum
Not WWII but I wanted to post it anyway. Would you believe that A&F has been around since 1892? They sold mostly sporting goods stuff before 1988 but still.
If you're unfamiliar with the modern incarnation of the brand, this is everything they've sold since I first became aware of them in 2001:
Gloria Swanson and Teddy in Teddy at the Throttle, 1917 US
Most people believe that the famous scene with the girl tied to the railroad tracks was from the 1914 serial The Perils of Pauline, starring Pearl White, probably because it was featured in the 1947 film of the same name. However, the scene actually originated in Teddy at the Throttle, a 1917 Keystone short starring Gloria Swanson and Wallace Beery. Swanson was, of course, the girl tied to the tracks. And like all Keystone movies, Teddy was a comedy.
The swimsuit Gloria Swanson wears in this picture is tighter and shorter than what the average woman was wearing to the beach. Hollywood heroines were notorious for wearing all things sexy. This hasn't changed at all.
Theda Bara in Cleopatra (1917)
This movie is lost except for just a few seconds, as you may or may not know, but according to contemporary reviews we're not missing much. There were some interesting costumes though. The real Cleopatra wouldn't have worn them in a million years but they were neat regardless.

In print in Photoshop CS4 I'm presented with a page of ICC profiles when I try to select the right profile to use under "Printer Profile". Is there any way of removing the unwanted profiles and just leaving the ones I have set up for the monitor & printer/paper combinations I will be using. I have tried deleting them using explorer but they still appear in PS
\Windows\system32\spool\drivers\color (Win7 / Vista /XP)
Delete what you don't need.
You do not say which OS you use. If you use Vista look in the Control Panel and you will find "Color Management". This is a use friendly way of managing Colour profiles. For XP, it does not come with this but there used to be a Color Applet you could download from Microsoft which did more or less the same thing. Finally if you use a monitor calibrator, some versions include profile management software.

St. Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.com) - Boston Red Sox outfielder Shane Victorino is not in the starting lineup for Monday's Game 5 of the World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Victorino, who is hitless in 10 at-bats against St. Louis with two strikeouts and a walk, was a late scratch from Sunday's lineup due to lower back tightness.
Jonny Gomes, who smacked a three-run homer in Game 4 to help the Red Sox even the series, will get his second straight start in place of Victorino.
Gomes will play left field and bat fourth, followed by Daniel Nava, who will start in right.
Second baseman Dustin Pedroia will slide into the two hole to fill the void vacated by Victorino, while first baseman David Ortiz will move from fourth to third in the order.

It would be nice if I could claim my achievements. I was able to receive them but for the past 4 days I get them but cannot claim them. It is beyond annoying.
Awesome Game. Very Addictive.

Toll-free numbers (or "800 numbers") let callers contact your business without having to pay for the call. Generally, toll-free numbers aren't expensive, although the cost rises as your volume climbs.
In the past, choices were limited when it came to choosing a phone service provider for your business. But thanks to new technology and an increasingly competitive market, businesses now have a number of options.
Residential phone service in the United States used to be pretty predictable. AT&T, known as Ma Bell, was the de facto phone monopoly.
Save money on business expenses by purchasing prepaid phone cards and using them in lieu of a traditional calling plan. You can decrease your overhead and escape overuse charges and fees with prepaid calling cards.

Several CLECs serve the state of Texas. Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLEC) in Texas have been around since the Telecommunications Act of 1996.
With the popularity of cell phones, there is less of a market for pay phones. However, you can still find pay phones outside of 7-Elevens, some grocery stores, gas stations or other businesses.
Making the most of calling cards includes being able to make calls cheaply and easily when you and your employees are traveling. Calling card providers should cut through the red tape and provide you with solutions that enhance your business instead of putting a crimp in it.
Using calling cards is wise when doing business because it keeps you connected, no matter where you are. Rather than give employees company cell phones and reimburse them later, telephone calling cards are a cheap and easy way to handle communication.
Not too many years ago, the competition in the cell phone and pager provider industry was sparse at best. The options available to a business were limited and the cellular and paging services from each provider didn't differ considerably.
Business phone services continue to evolve as Internet and cable technology usage grows and more businesses learn how to use it. Long distance carriers are a growing segment of the telecommunications industry with more small business phone service and products available for businesses.
It seems like an obvious tactic to choose a cellular and paging service provider that best fits the specialized need of your business. However, when a business is making the most of cellular and paging service providers, they often overlook this point.
Smartphones seem to have become the most popular method for communication among business owners. Phones with internet access offer a ton of new features that make business operations easier than ever.
However, you don't have to go mobile just yet. There are many landline phone service options that utilize all of the same features of smartphones in desktop versions to help keep your office connected and running smoothly.
If you're running a mobile business, take a look at our business mobile providers.
This guide will give you information on the types of phone service you can purchase; included are the benefits and drawbacks of using landline services, as well as tips for making the right decision in choosing a service provider, either to replace or update an already-existing wireless service.
Benefits of Landlines
There are several benefits to having a landline in addition to or instead of wireless phone service. Some of these benefits apply to all landlines users, while other benefits are most valuable to businesses.
Benefits of Wireless
Though landline services are still common in the business world, wireless connectivity seems to be steadily becoming the new norm. The following are ways in which landline connections just can't keep up.
VOIP service is a great alternative to landlines, take a look at our VOIP service vendors.
While it may seem like the popular option to only have a wireless phone, having a landline also has its benefits. Most phone service providers offer bundle or package deals that include landline options if desired. Be sure you have a clear calculation of your monthly budget that you can dedicate to phone services, and find a provider that can supply you with the connectivity you need.
If you're interested in phone services, you may want to look at phone systems and phone system accessories.
When it comes to phone services, there are a plethora of options available to consumers. Whether you are shopping for home, business, or mobile use, there are many companies offering innovative packages and helpful features using a few different types of technologies.
Most consumers are familiar with traditional landline telephone services from companies such as Verizon, Qwest, and AT&T. Services on landline telephones typically include free calls to local telephone numbers in the user's area, while calls placed to destinations outside of the local calling area incur fees. Because of the high costs involved in placing long-distance calls, many consumers are turning away from landline telephones.
Internet telephony and digital telephony are becoming increasingly popular with consumers as broadband internet access increases across the country. These services are provided by cable companies, as well as third-party companies such as Skype and Vonage. With these services, users are typically free to place calls to anywhere in the United States without incurring long-distance fees.
Of course, if users want to place calls while out and about, mobile phones are the must-have item. Many plans are available from companies such as Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon.

Packing is tiresome, and all i want right now is my old room. Charlie is already begging me not to go. His seperation anxiety grows more vast by the day, and now he's sunken to desperate manuevers such as clawing at new furniture or sitting in draws so i wont pack. Im with you buddy. I'd stay if i could…
"On a distant hill"
i wish i knew all the answers
like where your mind wanders
in a room so quiet
it shrinks like a whisper
or how you're so still
when the world's chaotic
or how your brow furls
into something robotic
i want to know which distant hill
under which star strung sky
your heart sits still
when you close your eyes
and that somewhere else is all you feel
i hope that hill is the deepest green
and sits in a valley, a silky serene
that when the sun strikes high,
you'll have a tree
and somewhere in shadow
you'll think of me

Thomas, your point is exceptional.
However, as a former AIG common stock holder, I am still outraged, confused, and upset by this recent talk of bonuses. As a man of an older generation, I've remarked on the current leaders of commerce from time to time at poker games and around the bridge table–mostly to pass my time. But this issue, I think is a fundamental one of values, and I hope this remark (since it took me about three years of adult-ed to figure out this computer) will be appreciated if not heeded. In business, non-malignant (or even positive) results deserve reward–and the corollary–failure should be left unrewarded (this is also sometimes called punishment). The old rules of textbook economics are more applicable today than ever before, in despite the claims we're hearing from the economic cognoscenti. The line must be drawn, my fellow taxpayers and I must demand AIG to return (with interest) the sum of assistance equal to the sum of the bonuses they pay. That's just common sense. This company would have gone bankrupt, but instead it's taking advantage of the generosity of others (for the second time let's not forget spa weekend).
So it's a "precarious situation" for the Democrats, but the next two sentences are a reference to the Republican Party's problem and how the Dems now have the opportunity to score major political victories on the populist tide? Way to omit the ACTUAL bad news!
If Sara Murray were any dumber, you'd have to weater her twice a day
This is what I propose , anyone who receives any form of Federal or State financial assistance should be banned from voting, how objective can someone be if they're relying on hand outs primarily sponsored by a political party.
Liberals are losers anyway… most of them don't deserve the same rights and freedom enjoyed by people who actually contribute to society !
Mr. Franklin:
I've often found that when insulting the intelligence of someone it's best not to follow the insult with a glaring misspelling.
The body of this article does nothing to backup the title, "…Bad For Democrats". This looks like bad news for Republicans to me. You even proved that the GOP will suffer in the next article. Could you please explain why it is bad for DEMS?
Huh? This is jibberish posing as information.
not surprising, really, mr. martin.
they are banking on the fact that more people will see the headline than read the underlying text
you are just paying the price for being literate
this paper is slowly but surely going down the tubes
the Wall Street Journal down the tubes
like the Market it so slavishly worships
as if it were a wise man with all the answers…
The Market will save us…from the Market!
what is it? cognitive dissonance? religious faith/
it's nothing resembling Reason, that's for sure.
This piece was nonsensical. I even read it twice. As Sam on Cheers said when he subbed in to provide Sports Commentary, "I guess that's just one [woman's] two opinions." So based on Sara's infinite wisdom, the AIG thing might be bad for Democrats, or on the other hand it might be bad for Republicans, but then again it might be bad for both parties… or hey, it might not be bad for anyone. Good use of my time!
I cannot trust absolutely nobody from this current administration;Obama is(as always) talking with eloquence, words of DECEPTION in an herculean effort to continues engulfing the masses into the WEB OF DESTRUCTION.The worst part is that although the public is wakeining,… there are many that are trying to fool themselves still – for the 'obamanization' keep hammering their minds.
The government is loaded with individuals of questionable integrity and not noble interests toward the american people.SELFISHNESS, GREED, AND INEFFICIENCY (just to mention somes) ARE THE VECTOR AND BASIS WITH THIS PRESENT GOVERNMENT …and the engine that moves everything is CORRUPTION.
Alright people, one more time very short.
Obama(tagged as 'president')is THE FRONT MAN OF A GROUP WITH THE AGENDA TO DESTROY OUR BELOVED LAND.
His purpose is TALK CONVINCING, DPREAD DECEPTION, ENGULF THE MASSES -just like Hitler did in the past.
These ENEMIES OF THE STATE NEED TO BE IDENTIFIED, AND REMOVED FROM OFFICE – REPLACED WITH INDIVIDUALS/TRUE AMERICANS(NOT TRAITORS) , INDIVIDUALS OF GOOD CHARACTER,INTEGRITY AND HONESTY.
A strong group of lawyers, journalists, investigators can put together all the factors and information needed to do the task…presented to the public and then CALL FOR A GENERAL CITIZEN REFERENDUM. THAT WILL DO THE TRICK.

I am one of many who have long envied Wall Street executives's ability to give themselves outlandish bonus regardless of overall performance. However, I am wondering if the "politicized ' hysteria surrounding AIG's bonus plan is ill considered. Many Amercian workers including salesman, underwriters, insurance agents and brokers work on a commison /bonus basis. We need to ask are we in danger of undercutting this type of performance based incentive and compensation.
The Obama administrators and commentators need to be careful to distinguish between unjustifed bonuses to senior excutives and perfomance incentives awarded to individual employess based on their individual performance targets. We need to be careful that ithis most recent politically motivated and managed episode of hysteria we do not throw the baby out with the bath water.
In my view, the current probems largley reflects the failure of responsible oversight by individual Boards of Directors. The solution is for Investors hold Boards of Directors accountable, take more resposnsibility for senior management bonus schemes and take efforts to recover unwarranted senior executive bonuses. Moreover, the politicians need to start posturing and begin to adopt respsonile corrective appraoches such as repealing the mark to market rule that is largely responsible for the present crisis in the finacial markets.
hey daniel – you can't trust obama? did you trust bush,cheyney,paulson.? bush and paulson are the ones
who originally negotiated with AIG. They were just saying that on the business news on the radio.. It was done in November. Obama became President 1-20-09 by the way that was the date on soooooo….many bumper
stickers. That also has a line -BUSH'S LAST DAY!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry to say, but, BUSH was not to be trusted.
Either was very dumb,or Cheyney was doing the talking. Paulson was no better. He tried to change everything mid-stream on the loans. But, he was caught red handed and had to go back. The previous was
administration was as crooked as you are trying to make the Obama administration. In my mind,it just isn't
going to work.
The title of the article "Political Wisdom: AIG News is Bad for Democrats" lacks substance. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner will have AIG sorted out by the end of the week with some assistance provided by Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo. It will be interesting to follow how it all plays out. The repercussions will obviously be in the news for some time. I am confident AIG has played themselves into the hands of the Obama administration for good, stripped off bonuses. Any tantrums will make the AIG talent's situation only worse. They will soon be all known to the public.
Don't y'all get it? In the socialist model, nothing is "performance based". Reward has nothing to do with risk or performance. These guys would like nothing better than to pass legislation that literally outlaws compensation that is based on performance.
EVERYONE knows the lections outcome was the result of MASSIVE FRAUD AND EMOTIONAL INPUT; EVERYONE ALSO KNOWS that FANNIE AND FREDDIE CORPS are direct RESPONSIBLE FACTORS for the present economical plateau….IN ADDITION, THE COVER-UP GROUP (BARNEY FRANK,PELOSI,REID,DOOD,COX,…and others weeds such as, RAINES,JOHNSON,O'NEAL,SOROS, etc) – all them elements, contributed to the current situation. And for the records ALL OF THEM FROM THE DEMOCRAT SPECTRUM.
,INTEGRITY;…..all those words, and the concepts behind them ARE TOTALLY ALIEN TO OBAMA AND HIS GANG.
I am a simple man, and all I see is that WE, the people were cheated, our trust and money continues to be abused and the perpetrators still at large.
IT IS TIME ! to create a TEAM – TOUR THE FORCE – of lawyers, journalists, investigators… in order to uncover the ENEMIES OF THE STATE IN GOVERNMENT, IDENTIFIED THEM, NAME THEM, EXPOSE THEM TO THE PUBLIC…ASK FOR A NATION-WIDE CITIZEN REFERENDUM TO EXPELL THEM FROM OFFICE !….ALL THIS IN CONSTITUTIONAL WAY.SO THE GET REMOVED AND WE, THE PEOPLE, REPLACE THEM WITH DECENT INDIVIDUALS WITH GOOD CHARACTER AND INTEGRITY.
Our beloved country deserves BETTER LEADERS.LET'S SAVE AMERICA!

The Obama administration is saying that they can't recoup the bonuses that AIG has paid out. We are talking about the Government, which is all Powerful. The Mafia would never let something like this happen to their money. They would go down, tear up the contract, and beat the tar out of those traders and risk managers until they got their money back. Then they would tell them to straighten up and get the company working again, or they would torture them until they complied. We are willing to torture those who fight against the Government of the United States, so why not torture those who screw us out of Billions of dollars. Those traders and manager and risk takers knew the loans were toxic, and had no business making them. What they did led to the collapse of the financial system, and they need to be held accountable, NOT BE GIVEN MILLIONS IN BONUSES OF TAXPAYERS MONEY!!!! It is ridiculous. Paying someone millions for FAILURE. I say we get the mafia involved to recover the millions doled out to those traders and managers, and put the Mafia in charge of getting the company back into the black. The Mafia knows how to MOTIVATE people, and generate money. What have we got to lose?
I do not believe, NOT EVEN FOR A NANO-SECOND !, that Obama and his gang are ligitmate expresing to be 'outreageous' in regards of AGI,…NOT EVEN IF THEY SAY IT WITH A HAND OVER THE HOLY BIBLE! This is but just a POSE, rather then a position , and is designed to infuse ( just like an ENEMA) the idea that they are with the people. JUST A BLASTED LIE!
We , THE PEOPLE has been VICTIMIZED BY OBAMA AND HIS GANG, I don't think that ANYONE WITH AT LEAST TWO FINGER OF FOREHEAD CAN SWALLOW THAT ONE…..NOT EVEN THE MOST MORONIC CAVEMAN/CAVEWOMAN.

The Nation's Dan Bischoff, a Louisville native, has a descriptive overview of the candidates and the implications of the Senate race, focusing especially on what he sees as an uneasy coalition of voters behind Rand Paul's ascent.
Bischoff casts Democrat Jack Conway as a Central Casting candidate who oozes a "natural air of nervous arrogance," while Rand Paul "seems strangely indifferent" to a romanticized Kentucky:
On Rand Paul ---
Paul rarely smiles, he often seems to be talking to himself when he gives a speech and he almost never backslaps another pol or shmoozes with regular voters. And Paul doesn't praise Kentucky or speak of its special place in American life. Kentuckians put a certain effort into believing their own kitsch—the derby, the bluegrass, the big blue moons—but Rand seems strangely indifferent to all that.
On Jack Conway ---
In contrast to Paul, Conway, who co-owns Stately Victor, the thoroughbred that placed eighth in last year's Kentucky Derby, often seems to want to do everything by the book: he shakes hands, smiles like he's visiting the orthodontist and pays court to every county kingpin he can find—yet without quite erasing his natural air of nervous arrogance.

Finally, a sensible logical solid ruling in a child support matter.
Hello currently just withdrew from laporte county drug court and now I have lost the woman I love which also was in drugcourt and was put in jail without a,lawyer presentfor her own safety according to the judge and they told her she could have a hearing in two weeks and now going on 30days and still in jail no court date and her public defender talks like he,s bout to just sell her up the river.
I just wanted to point out that Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner, Senator Feinstein, former Senate majority leader Bill Frist, and former attorney general John Ashcroft are responsible for this rubbish. We need to keep a eye on these corrupt, arrogant, and incompetent fools.
Well I guess our politicians have decided to give these idiot federal prosecutors unlimited power. Now if I guy bounces a fifty-dollar check, the U.S. attorney can intentionally wait for twenty-five years or so and have the check swabbed for DNA and file charges. These power hungry federal prosecutors now have unlimited power to mess with people. we can thank Wisconsin's Jim Sensenbrenner and Diane Feinstein, John Achcroft and Bill Frist for this one. Way to go, idiots.

Why is this video even unique or interesting? It's not that spectacular and when you referenced a woman breakdancing on an escalator, I thought that would be cool. How can you call this breakdancing? Not sure any marketer would find this a useful tool.
Beauty, good times, innocent fun – what's not to like?
I agree with Johnny. I expected a talented dancer riding up and down doing something interesting. She's just spinning.
Now that I think about it though escalator steps are wicked sharp.

Sure, what I saw by going through the diffs, etc.. that I have
available to me is that the prefix was registered to be announced
by our customer and hence made it into our automatic IRR filters. it was
no longer in there by the time that I personally looked things up in
our registry, but saw diffs go through removing that prefix later in

Someone that has a snapshot of the various IRR data from

2012 Lexus IS F CCS-R
The IS F CCS-R is the racing version of the Lexus IS F Circuit Club Sport concept dispalyed at the 2010 Tokyo Motor Show. It has taken part in several races such as the VLN 10 event at the Nürburgring.
While it keeps the stock model's 5.0-liter V8 engine with 416hp (422PS) and 371 lb.-ft. linked to an 8-speed automatic transmission unchanged, the racing model has undergone a strict diet and tips the scales at 3,087 lbs (1,396 kg).

Former world and Golden Shears champion shearer Cam Ferguson is confident he will get his name back into the record books today, when he and two workmates tackle a woolshed tally record that has gone unchallenged for 14 years.
Waipawa shearer Ferguson will team with Dannevirke guns Adam Brausch and Ringakaha Paewai in pursuit of the world three-stand, eight-hours lambshearing record, targeting a tally of 1784 shorn by King Country shearers Digger Balme, Roger Neil and Dean Ball in 1999.
Ferguson, who won the world title in Wales in 2010 and six months later set a solo world record of 742 lambs in eight hours, which stood for a year, believes Brausch and Paewai are also capable of 700 each in a day in the record attempt, which will take place at Moa Stone Farm, east of Ormondville.
The three shared duties crutching the lambs at the weekend, although Brausch took a break on Saturday to compete at the Taihape A&P; Show, where he reached the open final and finished third.
With ideal conditions forecast for the week, more than 2500 of farmer Dave Chadwick's lambs have been culled, the first to be shorn before a panel of World Sheep Shearing Records Society judges this afternoon, when they must average at least 0.9kg of wool per lamb.
Today's record attempt, overseen by a panel of at least five headed by Australian judge Peter Artridge, was expected to start at 7am and end at 5pm, with four two-hour runs, two-half-hour "smoko" breaks, and an hour off for lunch.
In the 1999 record, near Benneydale in the King Country, the pace was set by Balme, who finished with 621, while Neil shore 600 and Ball 563. Balme opened the day with 154 in each of the runs before lunch and upped the pace in the afternoon for separate run tallies of 157 and 156. The latest effort will be the first record attempt in Southern Hawke's Bay since an eight-stand tally of 3316 in nine hours was shorn at Mangaorapa, near Porangahau, in December 1970.
It will be the first of three shearing record attempts within three weeks. On February 5, Golden Shears champion John Kirkpatrick and three others will target a four-stand record in Southland. On February 12, King Country shearer Stacey Te Huia will tackle the ultimate tally, the nine-hour ewes record of 721 shorn by Hawke's Bay shearer Rodney Sutton in 2007.

The Edmonton Oilers will be without forward Taylor Hall for the next four weeks according to GM Craig MacTavish. The rookie General Manager updated the media this morning in Montreal and it was there that he confirmed the length of time that Hall will remain sidelined thanks to an ACL injury according to Joanne Ireland of the Edmonton Journal via Twitter.
Hall was the victim of a questionable knee on knee hit courtesy of Ottawa Senators defenseman Eric Gryba on Saturday, a play that saw the Oilers forward with the only penalty. Gryba, who took out Lars Eller of the Montreal Canadiens with a similar hit, will not receive any discipline from the league for his reckless style of play.
The former first overall pick was off to a fast start for the Oilers, scoring 3 goals and adding 5 assists in his first 9 games with the club prior to the injury.
The good news surrounding the injury, if there is one, is that it's not as serious as it could have been. There was fear among Oil Country that given the length of time it took to diagnose the severity of Hall's left knee that he could be out for most of the season. Four weeks is a far cry from half of the season and with any luck he'll be back in Oilers silks prior to December.

Freemasonry and the Battle of the Alamo by W. Bro. Robert Blackburn, P.M.
On Saturday, March 5, I paid a visit to the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas. Coincidentally it was the 175th anniversary of the historic battle there and the day included a reenactment of the event. If I had arrived about 30 minutes earlier, however, I would have ALSO witnessed the Grand Lodge of Texas' annual placement of wreath at the site. 200 or more Masons, including the Grand Master of Texas, were present. Featured prominently on the outer walls of the Alamo is also a Masonic plaque commemorating the famous Masons who took part in the battle including James Bonham, Jim Bowie (of the Bowie knife fame), Davey Crocket, Almaron Dickenson, and William Travis. Later I walked to the San Fernado Cathedral where, in the vestibule (because , of course, they not all being Roman Catholic they can't actually be buried INSIDE the cathedral), the ashes of the Alamo dead are interred and also by the Scottish Rite Cathedral (completed in 1924 and home not only to the Orient of San Antonio but also several lodges and appendant Masonic bodies) which, sadly, may close in the next couple years. Here are the pictures:

37 plays
I've been many men, and once a woman. I have been the sodden earth beneath the wheels of legion. I have fought wars, fucked whores, known love and hate until they were indistinguishable. I have never really died, though I have been the maggot that ate my own corpse. Learning much, I had forgotten most of it. I made myself forget many of the more horrific details, but I know that I am not only a child and woman killer, but a devourer of all forms of life, making me into, I believed, the most prolific active serial-mass murderer in the world.
Let this book be a record of my crimes.
I am Urine_Bubbles.
My presence here, amongst my victims, is a psychic intrusion. If only they were more empathic they would sense my thoughts, turn as one and stomp the life out of me. But they are ignorant, prehaps even de-evolving, believing themselves the masters of their Earth when in fact they barely qualified as prey.
I am hunted in the ruins of a great city. A creature much like myself is trying to destroy me. I am trying to destroy a creature much like myself. In doing so I have to do all manner of outrageous things. Things I never would have done but for the fact that I was hungry. And hunger gnaws at my mind, makes me writhe…hunger is a slow, lingering death for many. For me it was an abyss. It would drive me mad before it would kill me. But it couldn't kill me. I'd tried that.
So I was just mad.
First I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side
But I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong
I grew strong
I learned how to carry on
and so you're back
from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed my stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
you'd be back to bother me
Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
you think I'd crumble
you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
as long as i know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive
It took all the strength I had
not to fall apart
kept trying hard to mend
the pieces of my broken heart
and I spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
Now I hold my head up high
and you see me
somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
still in love with you
and so you felt like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
now I'm saving all my loving
for someone who's loving me

It was my shopping / inspiration trip with Jane that got me thinking about making a sleeveless Colette Patterns Laurel top out of one of my new Liberty Tana lawn pieces, bought with the lovely lady herself. I have been thinking of using a metre of Liberty lawn to make up a sleeveless button up blouse ( don't worry, there will be one of those too), but when discussing patterns, like you do with other sewsters, a renewed vision for a Laurel visited me.
I wear my stripey 3/4 sleeved Laurel aplenty. One of the reasons it works so well is that it is a classic colour and stripe for me, and I always feel it represents my style whenever I wear it. Sewing the Laurel top is another fabulous experience- no closures, no facings and bias bound openings. I've perfected my pattern so that darts are placed right for me, so to cut and sew is a simple exercise in all that is joyful about sewing.
Choosing a Liberty print to make this I knew would create another classic piece for my wardrobe, and an occasion where the pattern needs to be clear, simple and classic to let the fabric do the talking.
I've made a sleeveless Laurel dress ( my elephants) and had used bias for the armholes and it worked successfully I felt, and therefore set to on an impulse one afternoon, slicing through my Liberty. It came together as quickly as I had anticipated. What's more to say?
This little top is exactly what I had planned- the perfect classic tank top that can be worn tucked in or loosely with trousers or shorts. I cannot wait to wear it with rolled up trousers, paddling in the sea. Equally it has fared well being paired with a cardigan, tucked into my flora skirt, at work. Oh and the other treasure about this ? You only need a metre of fabric. Certainly worth an investment I'd say!

Marga: Absolutely love the gorgeous fragrance of the milk bath that fills my bathroom and my soul. Takes me to another universe.
Yvette Ellis: I am an ardent fan of your products, just this last week I spend a small fortune at your shop. Whilst there, the friendly shop assistant told me that the Egyptian Nights fragrance will no longer be available. Needless to say, I proceeded to buy all the small bath sachets and big bath butter that you had left in conjunction with what I actually came into the shop for.
It saddens me sooooo very much about the Egyptian Nights!!!!! That fragrance makes me feel like the most beautiful woman and like such a lady. When using the milk bath I feel like I'm in a 5 star hotel bathroom, it really is THAT special. That was my ultimate favourite fragrance of all your products & it really is a shame that you can't produce the product anymore.
I absolutely love all your products, from the milk bath, body scrub, body butter, foot cream, bath butter ( of which Egyptian Nights was my favourite) the stain stick and even the potpourri oils.
Your hand made soaps are another divine product. I use to get a very fine bumpy kind of rash on my upper right arm, which apparently is hereditary, my Mom got it and my sister also gets it. Since I've been using your soap I never get it anymore, it has disappeared completely.

Bald eagle escapes from Baton Rouge Zoo
Officials at BREC's Baton Rouge Zoo are hoping for the return of a bald eagle that escaped while its exhibit was being cleaned.
The unnamed male eagle is about 6 years old. It broke a hole in its mesh enclosure and flew away Wednesday.
Kaki Heiligenthal, the zoo's director of marketing and development, tells The Advocate on Friday that the zoo is relying on the public to call in if the eagle is spotted. Animal curators would try to bring it back in.
The Associated Press called the zoo Saturday, but those calls were not immediately returned.
The bird was brought to the zoo about a year ago after it was found injured in the wild. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says it has limited flying capabilities.

Cosmetic Dentures
One of the chief complaints by most denture wearers is the fake appearance of the teeth. The conventional denture offered by most dentists is made with little or no characterization of the front teeth. These dentures are easily spotted and give the wearer a typical "denture look."
Dr. Djawdan takes a unique approach to designing a more natural looking smile with cosmetic dentures. Cosmetic dentures are made with teeth that have multiple layers of colors and varying degrees of translucency to mimic the natural layers of the tooth. Cosmetic teeth also have an inherent variation in terms of the shapes of the individual teeth in less symmetry and hence a more natural appearance. The use of premium quality cosmetic teeth and skillfully arranging teeth in an asymmetrical but pleasing manner results in a denture that looks more natural.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Do you currently wear dentures, but are tired of the hassle and fuss? Are you considering dentures as a replacement option? We would like to let you know about a new denture design: implant-supported dentures. Because they are more comfortable and secure, they alleviate some of the issues found with regular dentures which means you spend less time worrying about your smile and more time enjoying life!
What Is It?
Typically, implant-supported dentures are made for the lower jaw because dentures tend to be less stable in this area, while dentures for the upper jaw usually do not require this added stability. However, implant-supported dentures can be made for either areas of the mouth and are easily removable. The dentures are made with an acrylic base to look like the gums of your mouth with porcelain or acrylic teeth attached to look like natural teeth.
The Implant Process
Implants, used to support the denture are placed in the jawbone at the front of your mouth. The number of implants needed to support the denture varies based on individual factors, which we can discuss with you in a consultation. The time frame to complete the implant process also depends on many factors.
What Can You Expect From Your Implant-Supported Denture?
Initially you will notice first how much more stable the implant-supported denture is versus a regular denture. You will also have an easier time speaking with less worrying about the denture coming loose and falling out of your mouth as well. Generally, you are also able to eat foods that you could not eat before, with exception to hard or sticky foods that can cause damage to the denture.
With upper jaw implant-supported dentures, you will also notice the more natural feel because the denture will no longer need to cover the roof of your mouth.
Contact us today to find out more about implant-supported dentures and to schedule a consultation.

Hello. Thanks for your question about using cooke and serve pudding. Although our recipes call for the instant pudding mix, you should have good results using the cook and serve as well. You need to pour it over the cake and into the poked holes while it is still pourable.
Here is a link to one of our recipes that uses the instant pudding, just for your reference.
Happy Baking!
