Comments On Oct 17, 2012:Always use OEM for warranty just in case the stealership service department give me any grief which has happened on my GL1800 and Wee-Strom in the past. I'm not willing to pay the stealership prices so I always get them for the best price at Rocky Mountain. Plus it's nice having them setting at my front dorr when I get home. Way better than going to the dealer and waiting in line.

Yes No Lynx At Home! Written By Kingfisch, New Kazoo, Pa. on Tuesday, November 12, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I love my Lynx SiriusXM radio while on the road.. which is most of my time. But, just nabbed the 'home kit' for 20 bux and now I can enjoy Art Bell during the night, or Dave Ramsey or my biz channels.. and tons of great music.. right at home, in my bed. Fortunately, my bedroom on the 2nd floor faces south.. it was a quick, easy setup, sitting the antenna on the double-hung ledge, plugging in power, my headset... and BAM! I have satellite! So easy! Kinda wish that the 'home kit' would connect via wifi to my computer so I could pump thru those speakers. But, I have plug-ins available too! Pros: Fast, easy set-up! No fuss, no muss! Cons: home kit should connect via wifi to other wifi devices, like wifi speakers or computer or headset. Was this review helpful? Yes No Perfect Written By LB, Los Angeles, CA on Saturday, October 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I previously had a Starmate2, which had a very lame, ugly metal holder for the radio. This is sleek and works very well. I'm not sure I see the point of having bluetooth on the dock, as the radio itself needs good speakers for good sound. Not much else to say about a home dock. The remote is pretty basic. At least it has a mute button. I also bought the boombox for portability. I highly recommend getting that. This and the Lynx radio were my first purchases with Crutchfield, and I have to say I'm very impressed with the ease of ordering online, the price, speedy delivery and packaging. I will definitely purchase from Crutchfield again. I had great confidence in ordering from them after reading other reviews about their customer service and guarantees. Pros: sleek and beautiful Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXM LynxT Home Kit Written By Donavon, Centralia, WA on Sunday, July 07, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is the best thing that I have purchased in the last 5 years no I can listen to Satellite radio at home. This is the best thing since peanut butter was invented and better than mom's homemade apple pie. Pros: I can listen to Satellite radio at home once I am out of my car. Cons: None that I can think of. Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXM LynxT Home Kit Written By davidd, New Orleans, LA on Sunday, June 09, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Good price and conveniently packaged...easily understood directions Was this review helpful? Yes No Working great Written By TDB, Ohio on Saturday, May 25, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I initially had a problem getting the bluetooth connected but it I've had no problems with it after that. Pros: Works great once connected Cons: Had a little difficulty getting the bluetooth connected but no problems with it now. Was this review helpful?

Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXM LynxT Home Kit Written By Bud, Vestal, NY on Thursday, May 09, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) It's ok, but not as good as my Satalite XM. Pros: Small size. Cons: Keeps shutting down. Was this review helpful? Yes No SiriusXm Lynx home kit Written By Barbara, st Louis mo on Sunday, May 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Awesome piece of equipment, reasonably priced. Pros: Small enough to place anywhere. Cons: Must use your own speakers. Was this review helpful? Yes No Good Product Written By GeorgeE, California on Friday, May 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I read some reviews that complained about the sound quality when you run through bluetooth. It is better if you don't use the bluetooth an instead you just run it through the headphone jack on your radio. All in all it works as described and lets you listen to satellite radio. Pros: Easy to set-up (if you can find a signal), and it is pretty cheap. Cons: I wish it had a better remote control, they do not seem to make a universal remote for it, but it would be nice if it had valume control. I have mine running directly to speakers and not into a radio or receiver so there is no remote other than the one for this system. That is a minor quibble though and if you have yours set up to something with a remote it probably won't be an issue. Was this review helpful? Yes No Happy Customer Written By Regina R., Fort Wayne, IN on Sunday, April 14, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Both products I ordered work great and I received quicker than expected. I had never been more satisfied. Thank you Crutchfield. Pros: Both products work as described. Cons: No cons for me Was this review helpful?

My Ghoul Friday
Check back often!
Recent Moans from the Minions...
Maggie speaks in a language that sounds like squirrel-jibberish to me. Her voice is soft, friendly, and not too high but definitely feminine.
She wears a scarf to keep her unruly hair - with bangs that grow down the middle of her face - in place on windy days (and even not-so-windy days).
She chatters and chitters as she walks along, collecting items for her daily craft project: some beach glass, a bit of long grass, perhaps some feathers left behind from a passing robin. For good measure, she gathers some dandelion for afternoon tea, and perhaps the petals can be used in her creation as well.
She doesn't usually plan ahead when it comes to her crafting. Often, she decides what to make once she's gotten her inventory home and spread out on the kitchen table. Besides, the final product isn't what's important, rather the journey to get there. When she looks at the birdhouse made from sticks and seashells, she sees a day at the beach well spent with a friend and a picnic lunch. As she uses the pot holder made from woven grasses, she smiles at the memory of almost losing her sandal in the pond as she plucked the long blades free.
Her creations are memories materialized. And isn't that a lovely way to decorate.
This figure is approximately 4.5 inches tall.
I've tossed this idea around for a long time, and finally sat down to put it together. I think it's pretty cute.
I wanted to put together very simple sculpture displays in jars. I've started with a group of ghosts (below) and a family of owls in a nest (left).
I like the idea of having Halloween sitting on a shelf like a preserve, just as you would with peaches or other summer fruits that remind you of warmer days during the winter.
I'm going to make a pumpkin one as well, and bring all three to my next convention to see how people respond to them. Perhaps I'll make an entire series for the fall if folks respond well. We'll see.
What do you think?
I've been able to complete a number of figures this past week (thank goodness) in a flurry of productivity. FanExpo/Festival of Fear is a month away, and for once I'd like to pretend I'll have enough made to take a breather before the big event (a ghoul can dream).
I have 3 Plague Doctors on the table, 5 unpainted plants, 2 unpainted Minions, and scores more to complete. I've harvested mini pumpkins, and even come up with a new idea that I'll test out at the show (if they sell well, I may make a bunch for the fall). More on that tomorrow.
For now, let me introduce you to the latest Little Minion.
An academic, Clay spends most of his time shuttling from lecture to lecture, and studying into the night
He conducts experiments and has a real passion for potion brewing.
I tried to learn more about him, but he shushed me without even looking up from his notes.
Don't do business with Cyril. He's a swindler and a liar without any sense of remorse for his underhanded dealings.
It's surprising how many are taken in by his promises and that big grin. But then again, only the desperate seek him out, and desperation dulls logic.
He coos and coddles, assuring them they've made a wise decision coming to him.
Discretion is assured, until he uses the secret to blackmail.
Contracts available for the tentative. Even if they were worth the paper they were printed on, Cyril has a talent for fine print. Be careful what you ask for, since he bends and wields wording to his benefit.
When you deal with Cyril, you get more than you bargained for.
This figure is approximately 6.5 inches tall.
Pilch looks forward to the Autumn Festival every year.
He tends to his small garden at the edge of the river with a devotion only true green-thumbs can appreciate. He dotes on all his plants, but he's especially fond of his pumpkin patch which is responsible for producing all the pumpkins to decorate the festival.
At night, he'll tie a copper plate to his head with a lit candle perched on top to help him work by moonlight in his beloved garden, polishing the pumpkins, weeding, shooing away any little critters who might mistake his masterpieces for a midnight snack.
This figure is approximately 8 inches tall.
I've been so busy getting ready for shows that I've forgotten to post any of my finished creations. Now that Scarefest is finished I can concentrate on preparing for FanExpo/Festival of Fear in August.
I was able to complete my creature bio journal beforehand which was no easy task. I purchased a gorgeous journal with a raised silver design on the cover. In it, I placed more than 40 photos and hand wrote an equal amount of short bios, one for each of my Minions and Dark Dwellers. I wanted to create a sort of portfolio that felt more like something you might stumble across in an attic.
The fact that it took hours upon hours to complete, and it turned out so well, and it's a rather expensive journal to begin with, I'm actually a bit concerned someone might walk off with it at the bigger shows/conventions when the place is packed. I'm going to have to devise a tie down of some sort just for piece of mind.
In this book you'll find some of my new figures, including these two.
First is Hoggart, a greed demon who takes whatever a person covets most.
He may even influence outcomes to ensure what we crave is finally within our hands only to have the satisfaction of taking it from us, and devouring it.
I have some news regarding Scarefest I want to share with you. I mentioned recently that I would be a vendor at Scarefest, a backyard BBQ Haunter Tradition for many years in Ontario. This year the organizer arranged a park space so even more haunters and vendors could attend. It was the next step in evolution for the beloved event which continues to grow.
The City of Vaughn (where the park is) contacted the organizer after they received an anonymous complaint regarding Scarefest:
"This individual who called in took the time to educate the Municipal Officials on our Scarefest web site, pointed out how many vendors we had attending and what they were being charged for a booth, inquired if we had all the proper permits for the park, and asked how all the residents in the neighborhood would feel about all the additional cars on the street." (You can read the full story on Facebook).
Was playing with some smaller figures.
Something tinier than usual.
No back stories but pocket-sized monsters.
At about 4 inches in height (not including the party hat) it's like evil concentrated.
There's a few of them on the table waiting to be finished.
We'll see if people like them at this year's shows.
Speaking of which, I'll be at Scarefest on July 7th. It's an outdoor Haunter Convention in Thornhill ON. BBQ, over 30 vendors/exhibitors, and all for free (though they ask for a donation for Sick Kids Hospital).
Bring your family. Bring your dog. Monkey Boo will be there too for at least part of the day!
You don't have to worry about running into Beezle in a dark alley or old forest.
He rarely resides in our realms.
He is more likely to influence our choices with a whisper, inflame frustration or cloud our rational thoughts, all from behind an invisible curtain.
A splash of selfishness.
A dash of doubt.
An inflated sense of entitlement.
A pinch of paranoia surrounding loved ones or friends.
A batch of bad judgment.
These are the contributions he adds to the ingredients of our everyday lives.
It's easy work. Mankind only needs a nudge. And sometimes, not even that.
More images below.
This figure is just shy of 6 inches tall.
A life half lived is a sad affair, especially when it comes to an end.
No talents, no money,
not gorgeous nor funny,
and no one to call a friend.
Too worried about what the neighbours would say, they didn't pursue their dreams.
No pumpkins, no ghosts,
no party to host
on their favourite night: Halloween.
This is the tale of a boring old couple named Mr. and Mrs. Gaunt.
Don't mourn that they're dead
Rejoice it instead,
For now they are free to haunt.
My self-published book is still available!
Craving more Halloween goodness?
Here are some sites to satisfy the hunger.

Well, the pick of Sarah Palin as McCain's running mate has given everyone something to talk about, hasn't it?
In my Aug. 13 blog posting, "A Woman for Vice President?" I explained why I thought it seemed quite possible that at least one of the candidates for vice president would turn out to be a woman, even though national pundits were mostly mentioning men.
I wrote, "If Obama picks a white male as his running mate, I would think pressure would build on McCain to pick a woman."
My blog also pointed to Sarah Palin, although that didn't come from me -- it came from a reader comment. On my August 4 blog posting, someone posting as "Sarah Palin" wrote, "Come on McCain, give Sarah Palin a look." My wife spotted the comment and asked if I'd noticed the governor of Alaska posted on my blog. Of course, you can use any name you like when you post a comment here.
It's too early to judge the wisdom of McCain's pick, but the early attack line by the Obama camp that Palin lacks experience rings false. After all, she's the governor of a state, and has more executive experience than Obama, Biden or McCain. My boss, a woman, wants me to point out she has more experience hunting moose than the other three.
The consensus so far seems to be that Palin was a risky pick. We'll see how she does when she speaks in prime time tonight.

(left) Colorado College's "dirty laundry" went public yesterday with some rather questionable recruiting tactics in the Colorado Springs Gazette
From: Colorado Springs Gazette
by Kate Crandall
Lampl and Patrosso said they are innocent of sexual misconduct.
Lampl was suspended until 2009. Patrosso returned to school and the hockey team March 12.
Patrosso will try to help CC win a national title. Lampl plans to return to school but is angry that the college's handling of his suspension has wrongly branded him a "rapist."
"That's not who I am and what I did," Lampl told The Gazette. Friends and family wrote affidavits in support of Lampl when he unsuccessfully appealed the suspension.
CC spokeswoman Jane Turnis said the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act prevented her and school officials from commenting on this case.
The Pathfinder, CC's student handbook, gives school President Dick Celeste and school administrators wide latitude in punishing students for conduct they deem contrary to the best interests of the school.
The handbook says, in part, "Colorado College reserves the right to suspend or dismiss any student whose conduct is regarded as being in conflict with the best interests of the college or in violation of its Code of Conduct."
That doesn't mean interested parties always agree with the college's decisions, and Lampl said he thought his punishment was unfair given his version of the events.
Lampl, 21, said he, an 18-year-old recruit and a 19-year-old female CC student engaged in consensual sex after a party Nov. 18.
The woman could not be reached for comment. She has not filed a complaint with Colorado Springs police. Her parents said she was unavailable and they would all like to move on. The Gazette usually does not name people who might have been victims of sexual assault without their consent.
The recruit declined comment on the incident, except to say he had the woman's consent. "Yes, definitely," he said. The Gazette is not naming the recruit because he is not a CC student and not subject to CC discipline.
A few hours after the threesome, Patrosso and the woman had consensual sex, Patrosso said.
When CC officials learned of the episode, Lampl said, they summoned Lampl and Patrosso for a meeting with Celeste. According to Lampl, Celeste said: "What you guys did is wrong. This isn't what we do at CC."
Initially, Lampl said, he and Patrosso tried to keep the recruit out of the discussion. That eventually led to the accusation of lying.
Subsequently, Lampl said, he, Patrosso and the woman scheduled a second meeting with Celeste to try to refute the suggestion that the woman did not consent to sex. Lampl said that when they arrived, Celeste was not there. CC attorney Chris Melcher and CC's sexual assault response coordinator Heather Horton met the three students.
Lampl said Melcher and Horton insisted on meeting with the students individually.
Lampl said he, Patrosso and the woman talked after the three individual meetings. Lampl said the woman told him that Melcher and Horton asked her if she consented to sex and she told them she had.
Asked by The Gazette to describe the conversation with the woman and the recruit in which consent was given, Lampl said, "We were talking. She was like, 'I really want to hook up with you.' And I'm like, 'Well, my friend's here with me.' And she's like, 'No, no. I want him to stay,' and stuff like that."
On page 54 of The Pathfinder, in the section on sexual misconduct, the policy says, "The college reserves the right to take whatever measures it deems necessary and appropriate to respond to a charge of sexual misconduct in order to protect students' safety, physical and mental wellbeing, and individual rights. Such measures include, but are not limited to, immediate modification of living arrangements, summary removal from campus pending a hearing, and reporting to the local police."
Horton said the school's general policy has "three classes of behavior" that could be deemed inappropriate and applies to all members of the CC community.
"The first one is just unwanted sexual contact," Horton said. "That can obviously be a fairly broad range of things, from unwanted touch all the way up to unwanted intercourse. The second class of behavior is behavior of a sexual nature that does not involve physical contact, so that might be things like lewd or harassing kinds of sexual statements or Peeping Tom kind of behavior, those kinds of things. And then, the third class of behavior is called intimate partner violence. So, that's violence that occurs within the context of a couple relationship."
Horton and the school's handbook stress the issue of "active consent."
The school's sexual misconduct policy states in part that, "all sexual contact between students must be with each person's active consent. 'Active consent' means that each person involved in sexual contact not only agrees to the sexual activity but also agrees to such activity freely and knowingly. A person who has been threatened or whose judgment is substantially impaired by drugs or alcohol or by other physical or mental impairment cannot, by definition, give consent to sexual contact. It is the responsibility of the initiator of sexual contact to obtain consent from the other person and to determine whether such consent is freely and knowingly given."
Lampl said he had been drinking at the party, but he said he thought the woman was coherent when the key conversation occurred. Eight people who attended the party signed affidavits in support of Lampl. The eight included Lampl's parents, five CC friends (including two women) and a non-CC friend. He said all of them attested to the woman's behavior and level of coherence the night of the party.
Lampl said school leaders did not want to accept that the woman would willingly consent to, much less suggest, sex with multiple partners.
"I'm not going to apologize for that because then it looks like I did something," Lampl said in the interview with The Gazette. "Why would I do that? I would rather not come back here. I'm not going to bite the bullet when it comes to being perceived as a rapist. Even though they said, 'There's no rape here' - but the words they use imply that. That's scum of the earth to me. That's not who I am and what I did."
Prior to the suspension, Lampl was on track to graduate with degrees in history and education.
Per NCAA rules, Lampl obtained permission from CC athletic director Ken Ralph to speak to other schools, which allows him to explore transfer options. Ralph said Jan. 24 that Lampl transferring from CC is "a worst-case scenario" still pending an appeal.
"We'd be happy to welcome Cody back once his suspension has run its course," Ralph said Thursday.
Lampl indicated Thursday he intends to return to CC.
"I have not talked to any other schools and I do plan to return to CC," Lampl said.

Sauber head to Monza "confident we can fight for points in this final European race" of this season... For all the latest F1 odds on the Italian GP, round 12 of the 2013 F1 Championship, visit Sky Bet. Nico Hulkenberg: "Monza is a track with a lot of history and the only true high-speed circuit of the season. I still remember sealing my GP2 title there in 2009. After the race on Sunday morning I was the champion. Monza requires a low-downforce configuration, which can make the car quite tricky to drive when braking from 340 km/h down to speeds of about 60 km/h in the chicanes. It's a very nice race with a good atmosphere in the Parco di Monza where a lot of passionate Italian fans cheer on the Scuderia Ferrari. I enjoy driving there, as it's a simple layout but it's not as easy as it looks. There are some technical bits and chicanes and you really have to master the kerbs." Esteban Gutierrez: "Monza is a great track, and very different to Spa. It's important to consider that. Coming from a track like Spa, we need to adapt to Monza in terms of driving style, strategy and set-up. It will be a crucial weekend, because stability in slow corners is important and, unfortunately, this is where we've been struggling. We have to focus on that and try to improve. My favourite part of the track is the Variante Ascari, a left-right-left combination. It's very quick, you have to get the right line, react quickly to the kerbs and the bumps, and it's fun. Our pace is good, but now we need to complement that with the right decisions. I have great memories of Monza, as I won the Formula BMW and GP3 titles there. I remember very well my pole position lap there in GP3, this point made the difference and I went on to win the championship, so it was very special." Tom McCullough, head of track engineering: "Monza is a unique challenge for the drivers and engineers as the circuit efficiency requires our lowest drag configuration of the season. The track is well known for its long straights. The majority of the grip-limited time comes from medium-speed cornering and two lower-speed chicanes. The track is pretty bumpy in some areas and you need to be able to use the kerbs, so the ride quality is also an important factor. The track tends to favour strategies with less stops because of the low fuel effect and the time you lose in the pit lane. We have some further developments to be tested. Again, Pirelli has selected the medium and hard tyre compounds. Coming from Spa we are confident we can fight for points in this final European race."

The annual Oceanside International Film Festival has become one of the most eagerly awaited events on the US's indie-film festival circuit in recent years. Famous for its excellent surf conditions it is fitting that amongst the film categories including more familiar genres such as Sci-Fi, Environmental, Sentimental and Emotional Appeal, Serious Dramas, Comedy, Romantic Dramas and Animations there is also a Surf Film category. With the town's residents consisting of a large number of enthusiastic surfers, drawn by the excellent surfing conditions as well as the town's traditional surf culture the festival can rely on plenty of enthusiastic members of the public swelling audience numbers during the screening of surf films.
A couple of the films also feature local residents Cori Schumacher, Women's World Longboard Champion a record three times and inspirational pro surfer Bethany Hamilton who lost her arm in a shark attack but continues surfing undeterred. Hamilton plays herself in a film called Soul Surfer, based on her career before her accident, the shark attack and her survival and how she got back on her board and now works as a surfing instructor to disabled children.
However it is another film which has drawn the most interest and critical acclaim. 'Out In The Line-up' is a documentary film exploring the controversial issue of historical prejudice and discrimination towards gays within surf culture. It looks at the history of homophobia within surf culture and the taboo of homosexuality within pro surfing circles.
The story is told through the anecdotal descriptions of the film's lead protagonists, with a supporting cast of a wide selection of other participants – in order to create a broad coverage of experiences and points of view. Supported by GaySurfers.net, which has more than 5,000 members around the world, the filmmakers believe they can improve the image of gay people by showing their passion for surfing and improve the future of our community by showing the diversity that exists in surfing. They are hoping to reach the emerging community prepared to step out of the shadows of secrecy to create a more open and accepting surfing culture.
The film has won numerous awards on the festival circuit this year and not only for the subject matter and script but also for its cinematography and direction. It has even been selected to take part in the documentary category of this year's Cannes Film Festival.

Bhutan: Children Learn To Grow Nutritious Food At School
Cabbage, chilli, peanuts, cauliflower, spinach, carrots...the garden of the lower secondary school in Yurung, Bhutan, probably has more fresh vegetables than your average neighbourhood market. Everything in the garden was grown by the children, who then eat their produce alongside the food provided by WFP and the government. In this way, WFP is supporting the community as it learns to produce more nutritious food for itself.

Hey Everyone,
I've been around this board for quite some time. I took a good 4 year hiatus from welding and just got back into it two years ago. I now work at the UW Madison student shop welding prototypes for engineers and some light machining. I'm helping a buddy restore his dad's 1973 Porsche 914. He designed a new intake manifold and is having me weld it. Miller Syncrowave 250DX. 4130 tubing to mild steel base plate. First time welding 4130.
I fell in love all over again with welding and I just wanted to show some of my work. Hope you guys enjoy.

Rated 1 out of 5�by poggi Do not buy this foam roller Fitness Gear molds a deep imprint of "Fitness Gear" in the middle of this foam roller that makes a flat spot when rolling. Should have put name in end roll, not in the middle of the roll. March 23, 2015

Vanessa Hudgens Gossip
Vanessa Hudgens gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Coachella. Some call it a music festival. I call it the time of year when celebrities dress like assholes. And no one does it better at Coachella than Vanessa Hudgens. Click here and here if you are not familiar. Full Story
Spring Breakers Style Hierarchy
Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson, and Rachel Korine have been promoting Spring Breakers all across Europe. Gomez, obviously, is the highest ranked player in the group. And you can tell by the styling. She's been dressed in Gucci, Versace, several top end labels through this tour. Full Story
TIFF REVIEW: Spring Breakers. Or the time I felt like I did 47 jello shots and passed out with no clothes on
Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty
I debated about writing my Spring Breakers experience as one long stream of consciousness because trying to articulate my feelings about this film in any other form seemed almost impossible. But here goes… I left the movie, directed by cult film icon Harmony Korine, feeling like I had just spent twenty-four hours in a trashy nightclub. Full Story
Gangster Franco
I can't find the snark and I won't try and I won't lie: I am obsessed with Gangster Franco. Like, I think I might love him. Gangster Franco > Casper SmartRIGHT????????This is the first time I've ever wanted to be Selena Gomez. No, I'm not sure what James Franco is doing in a movie (Spring Breakers) starring Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens that, so far at least, has them running around in bikinis the whole time. Full Story
Closer to Peeta?
Wenn, Lisa Maree Williams/Getty
Is there a Hunger Games club you all belong to that I don't know of? Because I've received a lot of email in the last day or so with the same video link and even the same wording, from different senders (I think), about how a recent interview appearance in Australia has now convinced them that Josh Hutcherson will be a great Peeta, although one person did stress that he's sitting down. Full Story
Coachella runway, bathrooms, and Peeta
Vanessa Hudgens seemed to be more into her wardrobe than the music this weekend at Coachella though I suppose she's not the only one who priorities the clothes over the artists. I mean, they kinda all do. And, well, if the Hoff is showing up at Coachella now, what does that say about Coachella? That question for another time. Full Story
Superman & Jena Malone
Sucker Punch premiered in London last night and it was, I believe, the first time Henry Cavill's walked a carpet since being confirmed as the new Superman. I mean, I know it wasn't his movie or his event, but you'd think, given that he's British and all (being from the Channel Islands means British but not English right? Goddamnit I can never keep that sh-t straight and I'm not even sure you people over there are able to keep that sh-t straight either!), that he'd command a little more attention, have a few more photos taken, right? Seriously, there aren't that many. Full Story
Fathers & Sons & old BFFs
A very youthful Tom Cruise sat courtside at the Laker game on Sunday with son Connor. He looks really good, right? And the heels on his shoes aren't even that obvious this time. Anyway, Tom was very popular. Many other celebrities came to say hello. Like Vanessa Hudgens who was there with her new piece Josh Hutcherson, sharing pizza and getting over Zac Efron. Full Story
Calm down
Jesus Christ these blasting headlines about a SPLIT!!! You'd think it was something monumental. Like when the GMD and Granny Freeze broke up. Or Brad and Jen. Or Ben and Jen. But this... This is about Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. Please. Let's exercise some moderation. Two weeks ago, the two were all loved up in Hawaii. Full Story
LipGloss gets stalked
By the GMD? Later, we'll get to that later. Zac Efron covers the new issue of Details and it's another great interview and article from the magazine, managing to manage the requisite celebrity asskissing with some citizen speak, like this hilarious line from the writer on Efron's lack of influence with the male movie-goer: Efron's also aware that although there are scores of young girls who will, for the moment, buy tickets for any project he does regardless of its quality, there are at least as many guys, like my thirtysomething movie-junkie friend, who had a hard time accepting Efron in arguably the best movie he's made, Richard Linklater's Me and Orson Welles, because they found themselves wanting to "punch his pretty f-cking face in. Full Story
Remind me why Sucker Punch was delayed?
Written by Sarah I'm blaming it on director Zack Snyder's animated flick Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole. (Really? Owls?) If not for the owls, Sucker Punch could be happening this October instead of next March. Full Story
Growing back the hair, re-blending the legs
LipGloss is f-cking with his hair again. And those legs, the Blender Legs are back. Zac Efron must think they help with opening a movie. After all, 17 Again opened in 1st place earning over $20 million. And back then, LipGloss was working the pre-Bieber. I'm superstitious like that too. And there are higher expectations now with Charlie St Cloud. Full Story
Granny Freeze with dark hair?
This is not Nicole Kidman with black hair. It is in fact Courteney Cox, at the Crystal + Lucy Awards last night where she was honoured for her work on television. Courteney arrived with her husband David Arquette and an ever tightening face. Not as alarming, no, as Nicole Kidman Granny Freeze's, especially since Cox's Third Lip protrusion was kept to a minimum, but with many similarities nonetheless, particularly something around the eyes and cheeks, and made even more obvious when she's posing next to Vanessa Hudgens who is 24 years – a quarter of a century! – her junior and they look practically the same. Full Story
LipGloss & Sateen
Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens attended the Nylon Magazine Young Hollywood Issue party in Hollywood last night. Every week it seems there's a Young Hollywood party. And normally only the Hills people show up. In all fairness, Nylon editorials are known to be pretty hip. And Nessa wants some of that action. Full Story

CEDAR RAPIDS — Little gets more talk on the national political stage than debt.
Republicans call for spending cuts by the federal government, while opposing tax increases on wealthier Americans. Democrats support such revenue-increasing taxes, while opposing spending cuts.
"The federal government is using debt to pay for operating expenses in a lot of cases," said Cedar Rapids City Council member Kris Gulick, an accountant and business consultant and current president of the Iowa League of Cities. "That would be like us going out to borrow money for the Police Department to operate. That's a bad business practice, but that's what the federal government is doing.
"And it hurts from a perception standpoint. The perception is that all debt is bad."
In Iowa, cities must balance their annual budgets, and little or none of the borrowing they do pays for the operation of government.
Instead, municipal debt helps cities invest in streets, bridges, water and sewage plants and other capital improvement projects, plus economic-development incentives and big-ticket equipment purchases like firetrucks.
Brian Richman offers a caution to cities, though.
He's a former financial adviser for cities and other public entities, mostly in California, and now a lecturer and director of the Hawkinson Institute of Business Finance at the University of Iowa's Henry B. Tippie College of Business.
Cities, he said, are no different from people when it comes to debt. Some are reasonable and responsible, others more speculative. By speculative, he said, he means communities that have invested in what can be reasonable-sounding economic development projects that come with the hope of increasing a city's opportunities and tax base.
"You pick up the newspaper here, and you don't have to read very long to see that there are governments in Iowa that tend to take on riskier projects," said Richman, not specifying any one government.
"Economic development projects — whether it's a hotel or a convention center or a stadium or an industrial park, whatever — are inherently more speculative and therefore somewhat more risky than what are called essential services — water, sewer, roads, schools," he adds.
Where the line is between safety and speculation, Richman said, is hard to know.
"Those are really policy decisions," Richman said. "How much debt is a particular city comfortable with? And more importantly, what is the vision for the city? What is the citizenry's vision? What is the City Council's vision? What do they want the city to be? And when you know where you want to be, how do you get there and how do you pay for it? Then the question is, how much can you actually afford?"
Richman points to the Iowa State Treasurer's website, which shows public debt in Iowa is up 6.6 percent in the past year and up in nearly every category — city, county, community college, school district — over the past five years.
He said the trend could mean good growth in those local communities, so government has needed to provide more services, but it also could show how local jurisdictions have turned to borrowing to fill gaps in their budgets.
A city that used to buy police cars each year with annual revenues, for instance, may now borrow to buy them, he said.
He adds that cities also have pension and related obligations, which are an additional kind of debt.
A look at the financial reports of some of Iowa's largest cities shows that debt is on the rise. For the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2011, overall outstanding debt for Des Moines rose 10.3 percent; Davenport, 13.5 percent; Dubuque, 43.2 percent; and Sioux City, 16.6 percent.
In Cedar Rapids, the total outstanding debt increased by 3.2 percent, while Iowa City's debt rose 1.4 percent and Waterloo's dropped by 1.2 percent.

Jumby Bay, A Rosewood Resort
Hotel Ratings
Insider Tip
- Jumby Bay Resort features two beaches, Jumby Bay Beach with pristine, white sand, and Pasture Bay Beach, an untouched wild beach set aside as a protected nesting site for the Hawksbill Turtle.
Hotel Overview
What to Expect:
- Once a sugar plantation, Long Island is owned by Americans and Britons who maintain multi-million-dollar vacation homes on the island away from Jumby Bay Resort's and ensure the island's environment remains unspoiled. Endangered Hawksbill turtles lay eggs on the northern beach, their nocturnal June-November arrivals recorded by researchers and assisted by resort guests. Non-woolly feral sheep descended from ancestors left by the Spanish in the 16th century roam the island. Water birds flock to depressions that become ponds during rare heavy rains. Songbirds, mourning doves, and egrets abound. The Blue Pelican can be spotted. The island is so ideally situated to catch tradewind breezes for a long time the resort offered no air conditioning. No cars other than a small security-staff van are permitted. Guests use bicycles strategically located so they can ride or walk at will without regard for keeping track of "their" bikes. Complimentary golf-cart shuttle service is also available.
Amenity Highlights:
- The resort's main beach curves along a calm-water bay facing Antigua Island to the west. Thatch-roof shades and thickly cushioned lounge chairs line the beach, ensuring each guest ample room for uncrowded sunbathing and swimming. (Children have their own beach and swing-set south of the resort's dock.) Another beach lies along the northern shore, providing beachcombing and snorkeling among coral heads. Secluded inland, a lap pool furnishes freshwater exercise and tranquil sunbathing.
Long Island
Long Island, AN,
Antigua and Barbuda
- Antigua
Airport:VC Bird International Airport ANU
The resort offers 40 guestrooms and suites located in three types of buildings widely spaced within the resort's main section on Long Island's west side. Pond Bay House is a one- and two-story Mediterranean-style white building with a red tile roof featuring an expansive Caribbean-view central terrace furnished with cushioned teak lounge chairs. Other Mediterranean-style buildings contain two suites each. The third type consists of six octagonal "rondavels" - South African-style one-story cottage-like buildings with conical wood-shingle roofs located near the Estate House, which contains the resort's main dinner restaurant and evening bar/lounge. Flowering tropical gardens screen all three types.
Guestrooms and suites include carved mahogany or bamboo four-poster king beds (or double beds) and Rosewood Hotels & Resorts' signature Rosewood Bed bedding. This consists of an extra-thick custom-made mattress, 100-percent-Egyptian-cotton Italian-made sheets (including double-twisted satin-finish custom-stripe top sheet), and down/feather pillows. Jumby Bay beds also include feather beds atop mattresses. Thick towels, including bathsheets, furnish additional comfort. Lady Primrose toiletries supply luxury. In-room beach towels, umbrellas, and walking sticks provide convenience.
Other features of guestrooms and suites include: white walls and ceilings with dark Brazilian-walnut trim; tile floors with bamboo mats; mahogany-colored rattan and wicker furniture; thickly cushioned teak balcony and patio furniture; Bose Wave radio/CD players; and crank-open louvered doors that allow tradewind breezes to complement ceilings fans. All guestrooms have air conditioning.
In addition to guestrooms and suites, Jumby Bay also offers Mediterranean-style villas with red tile roofs that provide accommodations for groups or families in a "village" of flowering gardens and cobblestone streets overlooking the island's east side harbor. Set up as private homes, villas are rented out in owners' absences. Decor and furnishings vary somewhat from guestrooms and suites'. Rattan furniture is natural color rather than mahogany, and, unlike most guestrooms and suites, villas include televisions with satellite programming and DVD players. Villas contain full kitchens even though guests are included in the resort's All-Inclusive Plan. Each villa comes with a complimentary four-seat electric golf cart for getting around the island.
Also offering an All-Inclusive Plan.

Recipe by Mommyto2
"This is a wonderful side dish for any Mexican dinner."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.
Show ingredients on sale
Sort stores by
Save money at local stores when ingredients are on sale!
Watch video tips and tricks
3 tablespoons
vegetable oil
1 cup
uncooked long-grain rice
1 teaspoon
garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon
ground cumin
1/4 cup
chopped onion
1/2 cup
tomato sauce
2 cups
chicken broth
Finally I've found the recipe for basic, restaurant style Mexican rice. The key to this recipe is the seasonings you use. I tried it as written, just with the cumin, and it was not nearly as good as it was when I did it a second time using Taco Seasoning I (from this site). I just sprinkled in what looked like enough, about 1-1/2 tsp. This mixture includes cumin and many other spices which are perfect for this recipe. I also cooked my onion in the oil BEFORE adding the rice to get it nice and soft. Other than that, I followed exactly as written and it was perfect!
If you're looking for a Mexican Rice recipe that will be "the star of the show," this is not the recipe. If, however, you're looking for a pleasantly and subtley flavored Mexican-style rice to accompany a spicier main dish, this fits the bill perfectly. I chose to saute the rice in butter rather than oil, but otherwise followed the recipe as directed. Don't worry about "puffing" the rice-just saute it till golden brown, then add the chopped onion and spices, saute another minute or two, then add liquids. Cover and simmer till liquid is almost absorbed and rice is tender. Nice, basic rice recipe.

For the reviewers having trouble with browning and puffing the rice: My rice browned, but didn't puff. When I added the soup stock and tomato sauce, I was concerned (I had company over and this was the first try) but the rice came out beautifully, and puffed out. Don't let the other reviews prevent you from trying this simple and delicious dish. It made a great side dish for the quisadillas I made. This is also a good guy-proof recipe, considering I didn't mess it up. I'm definitely making this one again. I have a rice cooker, but I decided to take a chance and make it in a medium sauce pan, and I was glad. My rice cooker tends to singe the outer layer of rice. Cook hard!
This is a great basic rice recipe that is easy to prepare. The only difference between my preparation and the recipe's is that I sauteed the onion before cooking the rice, added fresh minced garlic, and used chicken stock versus broth. Thanks for submitting it.
A strong chicken broth is needed to make this good. KAET: I've never been able to get my rice to brown and/or puff in a skillet either, so I always use my rice cooker instead. I saute the onions, minced garlic and cumin in a skillet, then throw it into the rice cooker along with the 1 c. rice, 1-1/2 c. chicken broth and all the other ingredients, omitting the garlic salt. The cooker shuts off when the rice is done. Easy and very good too.
This has become our families favorite Mexican rice. I made several alterations though: used sea salt (to taste) instead of garlic salt and added 2-3 cloves of garlic (crushed), omitted the cumin, and added 1 packet of "Sazon Goya-Con Cilantro y Tomate." It really adds to that authentic flavor you get in the best Mexican restaurants. The cook time is accurate, but I find that the last 5 min, I need to add a dash of broth to keep it from being too dry.
This rice was so well-liked by my friends that we all agreed that it was the best mexican rice we'd ever had. I followed the recipe exactly the first time that I'd made this, but the second time I didn't have any tomato sauce so I used a 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes with the juice. I still used the same amount of water and it worked out perfectly. Very yummy!!
I know this is a wonderful recipe. I have been making this for years. I used to go visit my friend and then go watch her mother-in-law cook, This is al most exactly her recipe. The only changes she would make and I still do are use 1/2 tsp cumin seed instead of the graound coumin and also she would use a couple pieces of fresh garlic minced and browned with the onions. The rest is exactly as she made it and MMMMMMMM so good!

Lenovo's new DLP projector with speakers casts movies on a wall, a shirt, or your cat. And it's coming this spring.
Which has the most apps? Which has the coolest features? Which one is the best? The most popular streamers all have their merits, so we'll help you decide which box is right for you.
Google Play Music doesn't support AirPlay or products like the Apple TV out of the box, but a company called DoubleTwist has found a way around that obstacle.
This new Mac app lets you create local copies as songs stream by on iTunes Radio.
CNET explains what FLAC is, as well as where to buy music in the FLAC format, and how to play it on your iPhone, computer, or MP3 player.
Safari looks to Chrome and iOS for inspiration for three new features it introduces with El Capitan.
Taking on competitors like Chromecast and Apple TV, Amazon releases "Fling," a toolkit that lets developers build into their apps the ability to share media content with Amazon's set-top box.
On some Mac systems, you can fix choppy AirPlay video by disabling Bluetooth. And if that's not an option, there's another possible fix.
The streaming-music wars are on, with Apple Music and Spotify now locked in a battle on price, features and artist selection. But how do they compare on sound quality? We put them head-to-head to find out.

I have just been informed by Pete M that baskets #13 & #14 have been removed from the course.
I verified this with the head of the Park & Rec department last night.
Evidently the neighbor with the barbed-wire fence was tired of people coming on to his property.
I guess the No Tresspassing signs were not enough for some people who threw discs over this fence and retrieved them anyway.
The parks guy said they have had to repair this mans fence 3 or 4 times because of disc golfers damaging this fence.
Right now we are looking for a place to relocate these baskets but it will probably be awhile before this is done.
Please if you play any course respect the property of the people whos land may border the park, this has put all disc golfers in a bad spot with the Paulding County Parks Department.

There are a number of hotels, motels and inns surrounding Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta
International Airport (ATL). Many provide free shuttle service to and from the Airport.
Hotel shuttle service is available on the Purple Isle outside in the Ground Transportation
Center, located at the west end of the domestic terminals building (west curb). The west curb is located outside between the Domestic North and South Terminals.
Courtesy phones are available, if you would like the arrival or departure times for your shuttle. We recommend you check with your hotel in advance and inquire if it provides this service. You will notice our courtesy phone boards located inside the Airport near the baggage claim areas for both the Domestic North and South Terminals. Courtesy phones can also be found outside in the Ground Transportation Center.
Hotels Offering Courtesy Shuttle Service
Shared-ride shuttle services are available at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) during flight operating hours. These shuttles provide transportation service to hotels, convention centers, businesses and residences.
Local Shared-Ride shuttles provide service to cities located inside the metropolitan area, while Regional Shared-Ride shuttles service locations outside the Atlanta metro area. Local Shared-Ride shuttles run approximately 15 minutes apart, while Regional Shared-Ride shuttles depart every 30 minutes to an hour.
Most shared-ride shuttles pick up on the Green Bus Aisle, which is located outside in the Ground Transportation Center between the Domestic North and South Terminals. We recommend that you contact the company directly to make reservations or for inquiries.

Connections to hotels, downtown, convention centers, MARTA and the Airport's rental car center are conveniently located at the curb outside the main greeting area on the arrivals level. Signs inside the building will direct passengers to the ground transportation area.
Hanging signs and a color-code system will help passengers quickly identify loading and unloading zones for each ground transportation service:
International shuttle connector: Because Atlanta-bound passengers cannot access secured areas of the Airport after they pick up their luggage at the international terminal baggage claim, the Airport has established shuttle services to link passengers at the international terminal with existing facilities.
The international shuttle connector offers direct service from the international terminal to two locations:
The international shuttle connector is a free service and operates 24 hours a day.
