|Rescue Me ID: 14-10-15-00420Alphie (male)
Alphie is a great kid-friendly 7-year old Golden Retriever - Spaniel mix. At just over 30 pounds, he is surprisingly small and does very well as an indoor apartment dog. He has many tricks in his repertoire and loves to show them off! Alphie is great with kids and families. He does pull on the leash when on walks but that could be remedied with a bit of training. A perfect home would be on some land on which to run around. Alphie is a great dog and in need of a great home. His owners are only looking to re-home him because they can no longer provide him with all of the attention and exercise he deserves.

During Lleyton Hewitt's upset of Juan Martin del Potro on Friday night, two Australian spectators waved their country's flag in support of Hewitt from a loge section high up in Ashe Stadium.
An attendant warned them this was not allowed, said Robert Kitchingman of Melbourne, so he and his son Jules, 16, took turns wearing the blue, white and red flag. They flashed it to spectators and took pictures of themselves during the four-hour match.
"We were getting texts from all over," Robert Kitchingman said. "Everyone was asking, 'Are you there?' "
On Sunday, without help from the Kitchingmans, Hewitt advanced to the fourth round, defeating Evgeny Donskoy, 23, of Russia, 6-3, 7-6 (5), 3-6, 6-1 in just under three hours.
Hewitt, ranked 66th, is in the fourth round of the United States Open for the first time since 2006, when he reached the quarterfinals. Hewitt won the Open in 2001, beating Pete Sampras in the final. A year later, Hewitt won the Wimbledon crown, ultimately spending 80 weeks as the world's No. 1 player. Read more…

Just finished reading a wonderful book, anybody who wants to know what life was in Punjab in around 1606-1809, must read this book.
In 1812, Sir John Malcom, a Lieutenant General in the British Army wrote "A Sketch of the Sikhs," commonly believed to be the first account of the Sikhs written by a non-Sikh. In truth, soldiers, travelers, diplomats, missionaries, and scholars had provided accounts for many years before that. Drawing on this difficult-to-find material, the editors of this volume have compiled a unique source that offers a fascinating insight into the early developments in Sikh history. From the first ever written accounts of the Sikhs by Persian chroniclers of the Moghul Emperor to the travel diary of an Englishwoman, this volume contains material invaluable to those studying the evolution of the Sikh religion.

The former is a new sci-fi thriller from Joe Cornish, who makes his directorial debut. And by all accounts, it's a fantastic first film.

Requests for all new construction and building renovations including the purchasing of furniture and equipment that will require modifications to utilities (phone, data, power, plumbing or mechanical systems) or structures should be made on this "Request a Project Memo and Form" link.

Torturous. Ineffective. Epic time waste. Not relevant. Old school.These are words Millennials used to describe one-on-one meetings with Sales Managers. (Millennials, or Generation Y, were born between 1977 and 1998.) These are Millennial Sales Reps that report to Gen X or older Sales Managers. It's not uncommon to see sales forces with these mixed generations – older managing younger. In some cases, even younger managing older.
There are many different areas of managing mult- generation Sales forces. This post is about updating the important sales management one-on-one meetings. With this post, HR Business Partners can help Sales Managers more effectively manage younger Reps. Also, download the available tool - a one-on-one meeting planner for managing Millennials.
The Problem
Millennials' words above spell out the problem – a conflict of generational methods. These methods won't work if they don't match the motivations of the intended generation. What happens is that the method tends to become a traditional activity. And that "activity" doesn't get updated to address newer generations. The result? Younger Sales Reps that think the method (nay, activity) is a waste of time. Sales Managers that don't see progress in a younger Sales Rep's development. Worst case – turnover amongst the younger generation increases.
Let's look at how this might work with the one-on-one meeting. Here's a traditional one-on-one sales meeting agenda. I've added some notes under each one to explain a Millennial's take:
The Solution
Millennials are different. They tend to have higher expectations than earlier generations. Make sure Sales Managers have valuable one-on-ones with Millennials. This available download has a suggested one-on-one meeting planner. It gives you 10 possible areas to cover as well as sample questions. For example, here are three points to address with Millennials in one-on-ones:
Call to Action
Seven more Millennial coaching areas are available in this tool. Improve your Sales Managers' coaching of Millennials. Download the Millennials One-on-One Meeting Planner to up productivity in Sales. The younger generation will now see value in the one-on-one meetings with Sales Managers. Maybe they'll start describing the meetings with other words – Valuable. Time well spent. Eagerly awaited. Helpful. Supportive. Engendering loyalty. Relevant.

GRANGER – A northern Indiana man faces battery and intimidation charges for allegedly attacking a 4-year-old boy who was shopping at a grocery store with his father.
Eric Parks, 25, was arrested after Tuesday's attack at a Martin's Super Market in Granger.
Parks, who faces felony charges of battery and intimidation of law enforcement, remained jailed Saturday in lieu of $1 million bail at the St. Joseph County Jail in South Bend.
Police say Parks was quickly subdued by store security and management after the attack on the boy, which was witnessed by the youngster's brother and dozens of other shoppers.
The boy's father told WSBT-TV that his son was awake and alert after the attack. He said the youngster has some bruising around his forehead, face and nose.

How To Build A Dog Door
Learning how to build a dog door is really quite simple, if you have the necessary tools. You will need the following:
- A chainsaw
- A box cutter
- A ruler
- A pencil
- Screws
- Electric Screwdriver
- Sandpaper
The instructions for building a dog door are as follows:
- Use the ruler to trace a square or rectangle the size you would like your door to be. Your door can be at the bottom of your front or back door, or in a wall leading to the outside of your house. If you cut into the wall, make sure to seal the drywall and avoid any wiring. Make sure you make the dog door big enough for your dog, but not too big so a person could squeeze through!
- Use the chainsaw to cut the hole you have traced.
- Use the sandpaper to sand the rough edges you have created in the wood, so your dog will not get scratched going in and out of the dog door.
- Use the ruler to measure your heavy plastic. You will want the plastic to be flush with the floor, and then an inch wider than the dog door hole on the sides and the top.
- Use the electric screwdriver to screw the plastic into place at the top.
You now have a fully functional dog door.
Tips: Be sure no children are present when using the chainsaw and electric screwdriver. Be sure your dog is properly contained while using power tools, as well, to avoid accident and/or injury.

Silence=Death 30 Years Later
The image above is what got me interested in photography. I found out that text and image could be a powerful tool of communication. A photograph that provided both could be a valuable asset to the improvement of humanity. The image sent shockwaves across the country when it first appeared around 1990. You don't see it around much anymore. At the time the image came out, I was enrolled in a "text and image" class at San Francisco State University. You bet that that was the image which became the focus of the course.
News reports commemorating the thirtieth anniversary of AIDS, focus on people who are alive thirty years later, struggling to survive with what is called a "manageable chronic condition." Images of fiftish men show weak individuals glad to be alive.
That is only part of the story. Some of it is getting lost in history.
Back in 1981, I lived in an apartment in Haight Ashbury. A roommate of mine had been sick all the time. As a positive person, he thought nothing was wrong with him and it would pass.
It didn't. He got sicker and sicker, until finally at forty years of age got put into a nursing home. Nobody knew what was wrong with him. He had several viruses that caused sores the size of silver dollars all over his body. They were painful.
He died within a period of several months after going crazy with AIDS dementia.
A few months later the newspapers all over town were covered with headlines about a disease called GRID (Gay Related Immune Deficiency).
That was it. They found it. That's what the roommate died from.
In 1988 one of the most shocking photography events took place. The photographer Robert Mapplethorpe produced images of people who were covered with lesions from one of the AIDS related diseases called Karposi's Sarcoma, a disease which left sufferers with purple lesions all over their body.
Those images appear to be lost, impossible to find on the Internet.
One can only wonder where they are.

Mobile phone recycling
|The examples and perspective in this article may not represent a worldwide view of the subject. (September 2013)
Mobile phones are able to be recycled at the end of their life.
Rapid technology change, low initial cost, and even planned obsolescence have resulted in a fast-growing surplus, which contributes to the increasing amount of electronic waste around the globe. Recyclers consider electronic waste a "rapidly expanding" issue.[1] In the United States, an estimated 70% of heavy metals in landfills comes from discarded electronics,[2] while electronic waste represents only 2% of America's trash in landfills.[3]
Mobile phones are "considered hazardous waste" in California; many chemicals in such phones leach from landfills into the groundwater system.[4] Environmental advocacy group Greenpeace claims that the soldering of the iPhone battery into its handset hinders its being recycled. It also states that its scientists found toxic phthalates on iPhone cables, and it holds that this contravenes California's Proposition 65, which requires warning labels on products exposing consumers to phthalates.[5]
Because the United States has not ratified the Basel Convention or its Ban Amendment, and has no domestic laws forbidding the export of toxic waste, the Basel Action Network estimates that about 80% of the electronic waste directed to recycling in the U.S. does not get recycled there at all, but is put on container ships and sent to countries such as China.[6][7][8][9] Guiyu in the Shantou region of China, and Delhi and Bangalore in India, have electronic waste processing areas.[6][10][11]
Americans toss millions of cell phones each year in favor of newer technology—and all those discarded phones may be taking a toll on the environment. Electronic scrap accounts for 70% of the overall toxic waste currently found in landfills.[12] According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 141 million mobile phones were discarded in 2009 and only 12 million of those were collected for recycling.[13]
A cell phone's shelf life is only about 24 months for the average consumer.[14] This means that newer cell phone models are constantly put up on the market to replace older ones. This is as a result of the rapid progression of technology in the mobile industry. According to Matt Ployhar of Intel, the industry is rapidly evolving, possibly even at "Moore's law pace or faster."[15] This means that newer cell phone models are continually on the rise of consumerism and more outdated models are likely to end up in landfills.
Most cell phones contain precious metals and plastics that can be recycled to save energy and resources that would otherwise be required to mine or manufacture. When placed in a landfill, these materials can pollute the air and contaminate soil and drinking water.[16] Cell phone coatings are typically made of lead, which is a toxic chemical that can result in adverse health effects when exposed to it in high levels. The circuit board on cell phones can be made of copper, gold, lead, zinc, beryllium, tantalum, coltan, and other raw materials that would require significant resources to mine and manufacture.[17] This is why it is important to recycle old cell phones and source these increasingly scarce materials whenever possible.
Electronic waste (e-waste) is a global problem; especially since many developed countries, including the U.S., ship their discarded electronic devices to less developed parts of the world. Oftentimes, the e-waste is improperly dismantled and burned, producing toxic emissions harmful to waste site workers, children, and nearby communities. Therefore, it is important for cell phone users to dispose of and recycle their devices responsibly and ethically.
Recycling canteen[edit]
EcoATM, founded in 2008 by serial entrepreneurs Mark Bowles, Seth Heine and Michael Librizzi,[18] is the first phone-recycling kiosk. They maintain a database of more than 4,000 mint-condition handsets. After connecting with an appropriate cable, the machine will scrutinize the condition of the phones, offer to erase the data and dispense cash based on the resale value. As of 2010[update] 10 ecoATMs had already recycled 33,000 phones with average payout $9 per phone, and 500 more kiosks were planned.[19] As of May 2013[update] there are 350 ecoATMs in 24 states, with two more installed per day and plans for international expansion. The company resells 75 percent of the devices to refurbishers; the rest go to e-waste recyclers who are certified by R2 Solutions or e-Stewards industry standards. EcoATM is San Diego-based[18] and since July 2013 owned by Outerwall, Inc..[20]

Re-Vision? Easier Said Than Seen
The most difficult aspect of revision is that the process requires seeing our own mistakes. That speck of dust in our neighbor's eye is a lot easier to see than the log in our own. I learned most about sentence-level revision from Richard Lanham, distinguished scholar, writer, and UCLA professor, who has written a number of books, including Revising Prose, in which he develops the "Paramedic Method" (PM), a series of steps that help writers find both the sound and the sense of each sentence. Sound and sense: that's what I like most about the PM. Aside from pushing us to see the ethics of writing, Lanham's method reinforces the impossibility of separating structure from idea. The PM helps us see the axis of the sentence—both the actual main subject and verb, as well as the unacknowledged subject and verb. If we can see a difference between the actual and the unacknowledged in any sentence, it's time to revise, to look again. Read more

The Gospel of Combat: How Fight Scenes Feed Your Story
So you're working on a story, and there comes a point where it really ought to have a fight scene. But you're sitting there thinking, "I'm not a martial artist! I have no idea how to fight!" Or maybe you're thinking, "Fight scenes are so boring. I'd rather just skip over this and get back to the actual story." Or something else that makes you dread writing that scene, rather than looking forward to it with anticipation.
To the first group, I say: the details of how to fight are possibly the least important component of a fight scene. The crucial components are the same ones you're already grappling with in the rest of your writing—namely, description, pacing, characterization, and all that good stuff. To the second group, I say: it's only boring if the author does it wrong.

"The High Concept Novel: How to Create a Premise that Sells — Agent One-on-One Boot Camp With Critique Starts April 11
The idea's the thing. If you build your story around a unique and compelling idea, your odds of selling it increase dramatically. Often, a perfectly good project will go unsold because the premise on which it is based is too predictable, commonplace, or over-published. Whether you're writing a novel or a short story, a screenplay or a memoir, you need to find a way to set your story apart from the competition — and the competition is tougher than ever in today's marketplace.
But in this one-of-a-kind boot camp — "The High Concept Novel: How to Create a Premise that Sells Boot Camp" (starting April 11) — you will learn the ins and outs of high-concept, as literary agent, author, and content strategist Paula Munier reveals how you can transform your story idea from "same old same old" to "high-concept hit."

How I Sold My Supernatural Thriller, By Matt Manochio
Every aspiring author dreams of that first book contract. I landed one in April 2010 when Dorchester Publishing bought my crime thriller, The Highwayman, for a small advance. Success! I began writing it in 2007, finished it in 2008, queried, and got the usual round of rejections. Rather than believing all of those agents and editors were crazy, I figured there must be something wrong with what I was doing.
I attended the Deadly Ink mystery writers conference in New Jersey and met panelist Chris Roerden, a manuscript editor, and I purchased her book, Don't Sabotage Your Submission. Her panel discussion and insightful book crystallized why I was being rejected. I used boring words—in addition to using too many! I larded my manuscript with adjectives and adverbs (which have since been largely culled) to amaze my readers with my descriptive prowess. I explained stuff in bulky blocks of text that the late Elmore Leonard advises to keep to a minimum because readers tend to skip over them…
GIVEAWAY: Matt is excited to give away a free copy of his novel to a random commenter. Comment within 2 weeks; winners must live in Canada/US to receive the book by mail. You can win a blog contest even if you've won before. (Please note that comments may take a little while to appear; this is normal. Also note that Matt's novel comes out later this year, so he will mail the winner's book once his author copies come in.) (UPDATE: Reynard won.) Read more

Why do modern economies go through the "business cycle" of booms and busts? What caused the U.S. housing bubble that precipitated the financial crisis? Who correctly predicted it and who should we listen to for wisdom moving forward? Ron Paul vs. Paul Krugman is an examination of the root cause of the crisis as seen through the eyes of two prominent commentators on the subject, each representing a different school of economic thought. Learn more…
"Any work of economics that can make you laugh is at least worth a look. If in less than 100 pages it also informs you about a subject of great importance, it might just qualify as a must-read. Jeremy Hammond, a political journalist self-taught in economics and a writer of rare skill, has produced such a book….. This short work conveys more insight into the causes and cures of business cycles than most textbooks, and more about the recent business cycle than most volumes of much greater length." — Barron's, August 31, 2013
An overview of the crucial period from the rise of the Zionist movement until the creation of the state of Israel, examining how the seeds of the continuing conflict in the Middle East between Jews and Arabs were sown during this time. It sets out to show, by examining principle historical documents and placing key events in proper context, that the root of today's conflict is the rejection of the right to self-determination for the Arab Palestinians.

"Excellent short work on the founding of Israel via the wholesale violation of the rights of Palestinians. This is the book to give to people who ask what's at the root of Middle East strife. Highly recommended!" – Sheldon Richman, vice president of The Future of Freedom Foundation
It's not enough to recognize the bias of the corporate media, the shortcomings of sensational reporting and the failure, if not outright dishonestly of the media 'experts', whose sole mission is to reinforce the status quo, even if at the expense of their very own integrity. Alternatives must be sought, and answers must be provided. The gap of intellectual dishonestly must be filled somehow. In fact, this is the essence of the 'alternative media', and that is precisely what Foreign Policy Journal is trying to achieve. Yes, it's great that FPJ has so ably taken on this formidable responsibility, which is helping to reinforce a stronger position of those who dare challenge the prevailing narratives of war and hegemony, predicated on misinformation, lies and deceit. But it's also not enough to recognize the contribution of FPJ and not do anything to guarantee, but insist on its survival. We all must support this important media platform, and help sustain it in anyway we can. The word of truth is not just the responsibility of the individual, but a collective responsibility as well, in which we all have to play our part. So please play your part today, and support FPJ, for it needs and deserves your support.

BlackBerry Passport Has Exceeded Demands?
BlackBerry Passport had a good start, with 200,000 sold/back ordered on the first two days. I guess based on the previous sales, this sales volume definitely exceeded the expected demand for the BlackBerry Passport. This is especially so since BlackBerry Classic is also round the corner, and many are holding out to see the classic before deciding between the Passport or the Classic. Continue reading

The San Francisco Giants (20-11) continue their road trip against a struggling Pittsburgh Pirates (12-19) side. Coming off a fabulous sweep of the Atlanta Braves, the Giants will be looking to continue their success. The Giants arrive in great form, lights out pitching and some immense power hitting have helped them power over their first National League opponent.
The three game series against Atlanta, marked the first time this season that the Giants ventured outside of the National League West to play another National League team. The Pirates have struggled mightily thus far, however, do arrive into this series after beating the Toronto Blue Jays in a home series, 2-1. The Pirates currently sit second bottom of the Central division, whilst the Giants currently lead the way in the West.
Despite their early season struggles, the Pirates can't be taken lightly. They boast a tremendous offense, featuring National League home run king, Pedro Alvarez, and reigning National League MVP, Andrew McCutchen. Young ace, Gerrit Cole will also be one to watch when he takes to the mound in game three.

A quality knife or multitool is one of the handiest things you can carry in your pack. It'll help you spread peanut butter, carve a tent stake, fillet a rainbow trout, maybe even save your life. But you have to pick the right tool for the job.
Outdoor survival expert Peter Kummerfeldt will show you how.
There are several types of knives. Kummerfeldt's favorite, fixed blades, are no-nonsense knives with a beefy handle and stationary blade.
"You need a knife to accomplish the everyday tasks you come across in the outdoors, from whittling on things and cutting materials to spreading peanut butter on your sandwiches," he says. "And a short, no more than four-inch-long, fixed-blade knife will accomplish all of that." Avoid large sheath knives; they are heavy and awkward to carry.
Then there are all-purpose folding pocketknives. Most come with tools such as a can opener, screwdriver, tweezers and, of course, knife blades — all in one compact package. Though they can be extremely handy, Kummerfeldt says a downside is the knife blade doesn't lock into place, so it may fold up on your hand while you're using it.
Lockbacks are simple folding knives with a single blade that can be locked. So you get the benefits of a sturdy fixed blade-style knife but in a convenient pocket-size package that can be folded open with just one hand.
You'll also find specialty knives such as river rescue knives with serrated blades for slicing rope, whittling knives designed for carving wood, and multitools, which are compact, handheld tool boxes. Most are built around a pair of folding pliers.
Most blades are made from strong and durable stainless steel. Blades are available in straight edge, serrated (jagged like a saw) or both. Bigger is not always better. A small, sharp four-inch-or-smaller blade can cut just as well as bigger knives but is much safer to handle and easier to maneuver in tight spots.
You don't have to spend a fortune to get a quality tool.
"My $15 knife does everything I want it to do," Kummerfeldt says.
As prices go up, you'll see small improvements in the quality and size of the blade.
"The only good knife is a sharp knife," Kummerfeldt says. "A blunt knife requires you to put so much force on it that it could slip, and you could drive the blade into your leg."
As needed, run the edge of your blade across a sharpening stone a few times. Wipe the tool clean after every use and lubricate any hinges with a light oil like WD-40.
Kummerfeldt says the smartest, safest place to stash your knife is in an easy-access spot in your backpack. You're asking for trouble by wearing a fixed-blade knife on your belt. If you fall, the knife could rotate inward and you could land right on the blade.
You did it! You finally earned your Whittling Chip or Totin' Chip, and your parents gave you the green light to get a new knife. Now's the really tough part: figuring out which one you should get. There's a dizzying number of options out there, but your Gear Guy did the shopping for you to bring you eight great and affordable knives and multitools.
I have a serrated knife and it isn't the best knife for cutting rope, but when it comes to cutting wood this knife does a fine job.
I got my pocketknife from my dad its worth maybe 5 bucks but its still a really good knife
make sure you know what your geting, be sure it does what you want it to do and it's under $25.00
Pocket-knifes are really dangerous if you don't no how to use it.
I say step aside all other knives. The true penknife has arrived because I have in my possesion The (Drum Roll) Wenger Giant Swiss Army Knife™ V1.0
All those knives sound really cool and expincive,but they don't stay sharp allthat long.
I have 3 knives a swiss army and anouther one given to me by my neighbor,but I just bought a scout knife.It is awsome!
I have a Spyderco lockable blade knife and it is just good for everything.
My friends bought switchblades in Scout Camp at Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan. I believe they are illegal in my state, but they still use them on camp outs. I wish i can get one, they seem quite handy, but they could switch out on me accidentally, in addition to their bad rap and history. I'm torn.
I love Gerber knives. my only pocket knife was just blown away in the Little Sioux tornadoe and I need a new knife. Any suggestions?
my friend has a hatchet with a knife in the handle that u just pull out
and the normal price of the huntsman is 60 bucks but if u buy it where i showed ya u get it fur 23 bucks sweet eh!
If you want a good knife that stays sharp even after a few years within purchase, get a leatherman. They all have great tools and locking systems. A few boy scouts that I know have a leatherman, usually a blast or fuse. I didn't stop there; I bought the leatherman wave, with a straight knife, serrated knife, needlenose pliers, regular pliers, shear cutters, wire cutters, five screwdrivers, a lanyard ring. scissors, wire stripper, can opener, ruler (inches and centimeters), wood saw, metal saw, diamond coated file, wood/metal file, and a leather sheath.
gerbes are great knives!!!!!!
Buck is the way to go. I own a Buck 110 folding hunter, and it is the best knife I have. It came presharpened, and it was sharper than my Kershaw. This knife is about $50, but it is worth it. It is a really nice investment.
The cabela's bargain cave has great deals. I got a Buck Pro Line Knife for $15.00 the normal price is around 40 dolors.
carbon steel in still the most useful blade, and you can use with flint to strike up a fire
Kershaw chives are in!
hi i think big 5 is the way to go i got an $50.00 knife there for $15.00
helpful , though i would like to know the features
They are the best, and can always get you unstuck or out of trouble
I think gerber knives are the best, they are sharp, and stay sharp.
You can get them at Wallmart you know.
Leathermans are the best knives in the world. The metal is good. I reccomend the Leatherman Blast Multi-Tool, and the Leatherman e301. Both are locking and the e301 is single blade, although it does have carabiner/bottle opener. I have both and they are very good. They stay sharp and sharpen easily.
i have a leatherman folding nife, locks in place, liteweight great for serious user. I recomend Leatherman brand nifes.
For my Bar Mitztva i got a really good knife that folds out into pliers
My knife is real helpful for carving sticks and surviving in the wild
pick a knife that fits your hand not too big or to small. if you don't you will get blisters i know from experince.
I got a multi-tool for my last birthday and it has been awesome. It does whatever I need it to and it is light. I carry my locking blade knife with me too, it is also very handy, but multi-tools are the way to go.
carolina knives r pretty vice along with buck knives i have both
Swiss Army Knifes Are The Best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : )
Thats a good deal for a 75-piece tool. Do you know what all the tools are?
I've got a Swiss Army knife. It's been really helpful on camp-outs and it's cheep. Another thing that makes it handy is that it's glow-in-the-dark so I never lose it.
swiss army knifes are asome!
what knife for 15 bucks?
it would be kool to see some knife reviews.
A lock blade can be good when using your knife point (such as when whittling holes in things), however, for simple woodcarving and ninety percent of the other uses of a pocket knife a standard folding blade is generally fine, especially if you practice standard knife safety when using it. I've carried a knife for over 20 years and while I have cut myself on occasion, can't remember a single time it's been because the blade folded on me. (Though I do have a friend who buried his blade in his thigh because he was playing with the locking feature).
As for the huge multi-tools, ensure that the handle isn't too big to be unwieldly. The fatter the 'pocket' knife, the easier it can be for it to slip out of your hand while using it, meaning the more 'uses' advertised, the less useful it can sometimes become.
If you get a pocket or folding knife it should have a lock-blade feature. You can get a bad cut from it folding up on you if you don't. I prefure one bladed lock blades or fixed blades.
i have a really nice pocket knife
The Gerber multitools are very well rated I carry the proscout 600 . I also carry a Benchmade 705 that does every thing I need. Sadly they no longer make this one. Check EBAY. I chose these after reading a survival website.
Get an old one
i keep all my knives at razor blade quality
have u herad about the $1000 75-peice multitool?
for knifes i like just a single blade fine edge knife that is always razor sharp.
Cool. I have a nice knife. I love it.
which one is better the multi-tools with pliers or all-purpose folding pocketknives?
I suggest a knife that small & light weight + it should have a lock blade.
Some of these can be found at most sporting good stores.
I have a nice and sharp pocketknife
I love knives! there one of my faverate thihgs to collect.

Kenai City Council Talking Chicken Again Tonight
After being postponed in November, and debated by the Kenai Planning and Zoning commission, an ordinance seeking to allow backyard chickens will be before the Kenai City Council tonight.
This ordinance was sponsored by Kenai City Council member Mike Boyle…
Cm. Boyle: "It's something that is done around the country, I mean, a lot of communities have opportunities for citizens to have backyard chickens, as I've heard them being called."
Kenai Mayor Pat Porter, however, said that the current process works
Mayor Porter: "They merely have to get a conditional use permit. It's kind of like if you have four dogs, or something. You have to get a kennel licence so that we are aware of who has those kind of things going on.
Tonight's meeting of the Kenai City Council begins at 7:00pm

Bicycles babble. I hear it all the time. If you listen closely you'll hear them too.
"I think tomorrow will be exciting. I can feel it in my spokes."
"I'm a bit worried. Rider should have been back by now. There's a creepy feeling in the air, and I don't like it. I also don't like the feel of this substance covering my body … it's beginning to feel … sticky?"
"Imagine if time stood still? What would that sound like?"
"Nope. Don't even think about it. Not you. Not you. Not you. Definitely not you with the pipe. Hmm…maybe you in the yellow. Hello! … not her. Not him. Not that guy…"
"Ever since this stupid goat appeared it's like snap snap snap. All freakin' day. And look at him. Look how stupid he looks.What the heck is a goat doing in a clothing store window anyway. I guess it's supposed to be cool or something… whatever. Snap away everyone! Happy snapping! Blaaaa."
front bicycle - "I'm a few centimetres taller than you."
back bicycle - "Nuh uh. Are you blind?"
front bicycle - "You're stretching your handlebars. Doesn't count. Everyone knows the most reliable way to measure is from the seat."
back bicycle - "Seriously?! Sometimes I don't even recognise you with the nonsense you say. Ever since your Rider changed your wheels … I don't know, something's off."
front bicycle - "What! Well, if you think I'm so dumb, I just won't talk to you for the rest of the day. See how you like that."
back bicycle - "Oh c'mon! Such a baby. Whatever… peace and quiet for me."
"I don't like the way he's looking at Rider. I should probably get prepared for a swift exit off this train."
"I feel charming, oh so charming, it's alarming how charming I feel, and so pretty, that I hardly can believe I'm real… hmm, hmm, hmm… "
"People stare as if I'm some kind of alien. I kind of like it."
"I hope she doesn't come back crying this time. It's always such a tough ride back."
"Waffeln. They're so hot right now … we went past like 4 signs for them already. I wonder what topping the Rider would choose. She seems like a rote Grütze kinda gal."
"So happy together - ba ba ba ba, how is the weather - ba ba ba ba … "
"I just can't bear the thought of letting him down. My Rider is such a great guy."
"The Rider was super excited today. We went all over and we went fast."
"Good posture is the secret to elegance. It's amazing what an unknown fact that seems to be."

Marilyn Monroe is a star cast to earth, a spirit in the flesh, and on camera, that's ethereal. Eternal. Forever a star glowing bright in the sky and we watch as it burns, burns everything in its wake until one day, it' vanishes. Explosions of sorts, and things leading in that direction, and stories and legends and myths. And Marilyn was the greatest star of them all.
August 5 marks the 52 anniversary of her death, a death that has become as iconic as the legend herself. Less than one year before she died, Monroe posed for Douglas Kirkland, who was then a young photographer on assignment for the 25 anniversary of Look magazine.
The date was November 17 and as Kirkland recounts in his book, With Marilyn, An Evening/1961 (Glitterati Incorporated), "My greatest difficulty during that meeting was telling Marilyn exactly how I wanted to photographer her. As I'd looked into her eyes, which seemed especially warm and virginal to me that evening, I felt as though my two older colleagues were sitting there in judgment, like two ancient schoolmasters, as I tried to gently seduce her into doing the picture I had envisioned, I felt conflicted: one part, the masculine, photographer side, just wanted to say, 'You'll get into this bed we'll have, with nothing on, and we'll figure it out from there. Period!'
"However, the Sunday School-side of my background wouldn't let the words come out. Marilyn, with her sweet intuitiveness, made it easy. She simply said, 'Okay I know exactly what we need. We need a bed with white silk sheets and nothing else, and it will work. But,' she added, 'the sheets must be silk.' She had done the biggest part of my job for me: understood my ideas and articulated them better than I had been able to—bless her."
In Kirkland's photographs from this historic sitting, there is an energy, a spirit flowing through the ether, captured forever in these images, a force that floats through our fingers as we page through the book, which is page after page of Marilyn wearing nothing but Chanel No. 5 in bed. It is quite literally exquisite.

I believe that everything happens for a reason.
People change so that you can learn to let go.
Things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they're right.
You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself.
And sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
—Marilyn Monroe

spirits & ghosts
April 3, 2012
This September, Glitterati will publish Douglas Kirkland's With Marilyn. As I paged through the blues last week, I was overcome. This book is filled with the eternal spirit of Marilyn Monroe or Norma Jean Baker, or whoever She was.
Make that Is. Because she never left. These pages are a testament to photography as magic. A magic we do not understand. I've been thinking a lot about this. About what the Native Americans felt. Something is captured on paper. Why? How? The spirit travels through light. Light on paper becomes the image. But it's not what we see before us. It is the ether. Captured. Forever.
I don't even have words…
