The 911 Carrera models are equipped with 19-inch Carrera wheels as standard. These are lightweight alloys featuring a classic sporty design. Tire sizes are 235/40 ZR 19 and 285/35 ZR 19 at the front and rear, respectively. All-wheel-drive models are fitted with even wider 295/35 ZR 19 tires at the rear.
The S models are equipped with light-alloy 20-inch Carrera S wheels as standard. The visual effect is sporty and dynamic. The tires are slightly wider to cope with the increased power output of these models: 245/35 ZR 20 at the front, 295/30 ZR 20 at the rear. All-wheel-drive models have 305/30 ZR 20 tires at the rear.
The large tire size improves both ride comfort and track performance. Rolling resistance, dry braking distances and tire weight are all comparatively low, thereby helping to reduce fuel consumption.
A selection of 20-inch wheels is available in our range of options.
Integrated as standard, Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) sends warnings to the on-board computer's display screen in the event of low tire pressure or a gradual or sudden loss of pressure. The individual pressures in all four tires can be displayed in the instrument cluster.

Tootsie's Orchid Lounge, the Lower Broadway honky tonk that Country Music Hall of Famer Tom T. Hall once called "the one spot in Nashville where you could meet more winners and losers per square inch than anywhere else," is 50 years old.
The tavern is perhaps Nashville's humblest landmark, but for music-loving tourists it is among the city's most famed destinations. Plenty of visitors skip the Hermitage and the Parthenon but wouldn't think of leaving town without downing something cold and domestic at Tootsie's.
Owner Steve Smith is celebrating the bar's half-century mark on Sunday evening by presenting a multi-artist concert across the back alley at the Ryman Auditorium, with notables including Country Music Hall of Famers (and former Tootsie's regulars) Kris Kristofferson, Mel Tillis and Little Jimmy Dickens set to appear.
Those artists are bound to the building by memories of the business' namesake, Hattie Louise "Tootsie" Bess, who was kind enough to allow songwriters' bar tabs to float for years but assertive enough to prick posteriors with a hatpin when it was time to clear the room at night's end.

Here is a link to some Clash pictures.

They were taken by Mike Adams.
I invited Mike to come out to watch the FlyBoy Clash and the next thing you know he is carrying a backpack, the Clash tee signs and caddying for Double G all while taking pictures. He is going to be a great addition to ADGO. If you meet him at the course please welcome him.
Mike is a transplant from the Chicago area. His wife is with Coca Cola's HR department. Mike is an IT guy so if you know of any companies that are hiring, I am sure he would greatly appreciate the hook-up.
I will get my pictures up soon.

Create a paradigm shift by retooling our systems to refocus on the basic needs of everyone….
If our current global economic paradigm can be described as a balance between need and want, an imbalance has occurred whereby the focus of today's economic resources is severely stacked in favor of "want" over "need", then we have missed something very important and valuable. The result is extraordinary waste and the lives of millions spent in social and absolute poverty, the greatest waste of resources, as the basic "needs" of these individuals and/or whole populations are severely compromised and never met. This waste translates into hundreds of billions of dollars as the potential contributions of these people remains unrealized. How can we encourage a paradigm shift using our educational systems both in early development schooling (K-12), college level, and in corporate settings beyond schooling to subvert and swing focus away from "want" towards "need" to rebalance the systems and insure everyone's basic needs are provided before basic wants are promoted?
How can we create a paradigm shift by retooling our systems to provide the basic needs for everyone before promoting the wants of those whose basic needs have already been met and recapture the human potential currently being wasted?
Feb 6 2013: In addition and more to your point. i would like to point out a few ideas i have to alter and improve the system which might further thinking along these lines and contribute if not act as a cataylst for the shift you refer to. First of all alot of the terms we have grown accustomed to associating as bad must be looked at more carefully. the comment right before mine speaks to the influence our media and other components of the media have in shaping our thoughts. I agree socialism in its truest state ( everyone gets the same amount of money and lives the same type of life) is inconceievable or at the very least impobable, but the thinking is that anything remotely socialist sounding is considered evil. Why is this? Futhermore why is everything regarding our current capatilist economic system held to such a high esteem. Capatilism and globalization have contributed to the rise of poverty and the lowering of standards of living in virtually every corner of the world including and especially in America. Yet politicians in America hold it up as a shining economic model and anyone who fights against it or acts to change it is seen as a socialist or some other term demonized in the media. My thought is that as you said the economic model as well as poliicies of goverment should reflect the "needs" of the people and be to willing enact any policies that might benefit their general welfare. My suggestions lack the polish that would make them acceptable or feasiaable at the present time, but i believe as ideas and with some alterations they can get the ball rolling. First instead of The Federal Reserve acting as central bank, i believe it should be abolished and a new national bank be setup soley for the US. This bank instead of taking the interest as profit would invest that money made back into the United States thus greatly lowering taxes and eventually ideally elimanating them. Lastly, a minimum wage where working or not people get enough money to stay out of poverty.Feb 6 2013: An earlier point made was that healthcare is not a need it is a want. Why is it not a need in modern society? we have the technology and ability to provide healthcare for everyone on the planet. people shouldn't be allowed to die or not get the help they need because of money. in just this instance alone, it is apparent that the system is flawed. 700billion+ a year is spent on military to "protect us." why not invest most of that in the general welfare and save countless more lifes. This is just one of countless shifts that need to be made in government policy.Feb 1 2013: the title is the most cool way of saying "we want socialism" i have ever heard.
Feb 1 2013: Krisztian, thank you for participating, so for clarification -
paradigm shift |ˈpɛrəˌdaɪm ʃɪft|
a fundamental change in approach or underlying assumptions.
the assumption being - …there is, has always been, and will always be poverty inexpiably…Feb 1 2013: The fist time I had a discussion with someone who did not know the difference between "want" and "need", I was shocked. I asked for definitions of both, so that I could make sense of what I was hearing. I was given acceptable definitions. But this person was unable to apply those definitions to life.
I have since discovered that there are MANY who do not know the difference between a "want" and a "need". So you can't have the paradigm shift until THAT is agreed on. Expect disagreement.
Feb 1 2013: TED Lover, thank you for participating, I understand and am not surprised. So for the sake of not being misleading and for the purposes of this conversation -
a need is defined as - food, shelter, healthcare, communication…the four absolute necessities required by any human to be able to contribute and participate in their own care and the care of their family.
a want is the desire for anything after those things described as needs.
Feb 2 2013: healthcare? I disagree. If you are 93 and you have cancer, is "healthcare" a need? Or is it a want? Freedom from pain can be a need (be it through medicine or death), but healthcare as a category? That won't be so easy to sell. People die, after all. It's not something that can be avoided. It seems to me that if it is not universal, it's not a need.
Feb 2 2013: So what will you do with all that money you'll save by denying healthcare to all those "impoverished" 93 year olds with cancer. And just for argument sake, the people we are discussing, those who will directly benefit from this proposal, will never make it to 93…or 63…and most of them not even 23…because the focus of this world is on the want before the need…additionally your statement infers someone aged 93 is not worth saving…which translates to healthcare being a privilege….for the young...Feb 2 2013: No, my statement translates into healthcare is not a basic human need. It is a want for those who live in a culture like ours.Feb 1 2013: The current economic system is being focussed on meeting human wants, which are insatiable. Needs should be our focus. But is it that easy to decide and do? Think about the addict and the alcoholic. The grip of materialism like clamps of steel.
As for wants, it makes us seem like one hoping to quech a thirst with salty water; the more we drink the thirstier we become.
Feb 1 2013: Feyisayo, thank you for participating, yes it does seem "want" is insatiable however what I propose is a balance. It is not my intention to demonize "want". It's good to want, but not getting what we want at the expense of insuring that the "needs" of everyone are first met, eliminating the extreme waste that results from choosing not to meet those needs. Want is very successful at driving economics but focusing on it alone is wasteful and unsustainable.Feb 1 2013: The current economic system is being focussed on meeting human wants, which are insatiable. Needs should be our focus.
As for wants, it makes us seem like one hoping to quech a thirst with salty water; the more we drink the thirstier we become.

To know the untrue, unreal or INVALID happiness will help greatly to solve this problem.
(For INVALID (ineffective) happiness, see the 1st article, points 1-3, 14, at https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=D24D89AE8B1E2E0D&id=D24D89AE8B1E2E0D%21283&sc=documents)
Feb 1 2013: Mr. Ying, thank you for participating, I read through your document and appreciate the comparisons. I especially appreciate your reference to 10,000 years ago…there was no poverty in the tribe or village that wasn't shared by everyone. Conversely good fortune also shared by everyone.Feb 1 2013: But political campaigns are designed to do exactly the opposite.
Feb 1 2013: George, thank you for participating, I don't understand your point, perhaps you could elaborate.Feb 1 2013: I think many people believe in this notion as a matter of principle (that no one should have to live in conditions of want).
Among those who do but don't somehow act on this principle in a meaningful way, it may help to provide a vivid, immediate picture of those living in conditions in which basic needs are not met, perhaps starting with those close at hand. For kids in high school, for example, if everyone wears the same clothes and has a cellphone, and if people don't see beyond this face to the world, they don't realize the family isn't eating or whatever else.
When distances are involved, as, for example, when people see pictures of refugees in conditions of great need and risk, the challenge is often for people to understand how exactly to make a dent in the problem beyond what they or their families are already doing. There is already a lot of talking and awareness of this issue in schools and beyond, but a disconnect between seeing a problem and knowing something effective to do.
Do you have some favorites among the TED talks that address this issue of how best to deal with global poverty and related needs?
Feb 1 2013: Fritzie, Thank you for participating, yes, in the abstract most people would find the living conditions of the impoverished deplorable in principle however, with few exceptions will continue with their lives chasing "want" to the exclusion of insuring the "needs" of everyone first being met. This the direct result of the prevailing economic model's influence on the population, through media and commercialization, viewing human beings as a means to increase profits. Whereas the systems supporting economics were once tools of human beings, we have become tools for the machines called economics. We are pummeled every minute of every day with advertising and so-called news to succumb to our desire. We are taught in school to win at all costs. We are told by our employer that the company's bottom line is our only goal. The same employer may also bully us into making a contribution to a charity of the employers choice, i.e. the United Way, where a whopping $0.51 of every dollar actually goes to the charity, or UNICEF - $.14 or The Red Cross - $0.39 and so on…the focus is not on NEED, but instead on WANT…and all of this can be attributed to a seemingly global "underlying assumption"…there is, has always been, and will always be poverty inexpiably…the disconnect isn't simply between "seeing" and "doing", it's more in accepting this assumption…or not. The shift is in choosing…not.

Burnett's end-zone INT propels victory
Green Bay - The Minnesota Vikings had a Super Bowl berth at their fingertips three years ago until Brett Favre threw back into the middle of the field for a last-minute interception against the New Orleans Saints in the NFC Championship Game.
On Sunday, they were well on their way to dealing what would have been a costly defeat to the archrival Green Bay Packers when Favre's successor, Christian Ponder, did the exact same thing.
Morgan Burnett's end-zone interception of Ponder's foolish pass loomed large as large could be Sunday after the Packers pounded out a gratifying 23-14 victory at Lambeau Field. »Read Full Article(257)
Dense fog advisory issued for south central Wisconsin
The National Weather Service has issued a dense fog advisory for Sunday night and Monday morning for much of south central Wisconsin, including Madison.
Visibility is expected to drop to a quarter mile or less in some areas, creating hazardous driving conditions and delaying or canceling flights at airports. Cooling temperatures and increasing moisture in air flowing into the region are creating the dense fog. It's expected to rapidly develop from 9 p.m. to midnight and then linger until around 6 a.m. Monday.
Southeast winds are expected to increase over night, which could help improve visibility before dawn in south central Wisconsin, according to the National Weather Service. »Read Full Article
UW's extra effort pays off against Cal
Madison - If you enjoyed the beat-down Wisconsin handed Nebraska on the football field Saturday in the Big Ten title game, you might have experienced a sense of déjà vu Sunday.
California came to the Kohl Center hoping to open the season with a 7-0 record for the first time in more than five decades.
Instead, UW bounced back from a disappointing home loss to Virginia by inducing the Golden Bears into their worst overall performance of the season en route to an 81-56 victory in front of an announced crowd of 16,596. »Read Full Article(5)

Mining measure changes backed by Gogebic lobbyist
A representative of the company at the center of the debate over state mining laws says a bill that lost narrowly in March remains the best hope to revive a plan to build an iron ore mine in northern Wisconsin.
"They've got kind of a wait-and-see attitude," said Bob Seitz, a lobbyist for Gogebic Taconite, which proposed a $1.5 billion iron ore mine in Ashland and Iron counties.
But he said Gogebic is inclined to move forward with an application to build the massive mine, if lawmakers remove language in current law that Gogebic sees as presenting needless delays in the review and regulatory process involving a mine that could operate for decades. »Read Full Article(149)

Waterford woman arrested after vehicle strikes teen pedestrian
Authorities are seeking charges of drunken driving causing injury and hit-and-run causing injuring against a 28-year-old Waterford woman after she allegedly seriously injured a teenage boy who was crossing a street Saturday night in the Village of Waterford, the Racine County Sheriff's Office said in a news release Sunday.
Authorities said the woman hit the 13-year-old boy shortly before 7 p.m. Saturday as he crossed W. Main St. in the crosswalk near the state Highway 20 intersection in the downtown village area.
The striking vehicle fled from the scene before deputies arrived. But while deputies canvassed the area on foot, they found the vehicle suspected in the incident, obtained the owner and registration information, and identified the woman as a suspect, the Racine County Sheriff's Office said. »Read Full Article
Fitchburg man dies after beating with bat
Madison - A Fitchburg man has died after being beaten with a baseball bat in Mount Horeb.
The Dane County Sheriff's Office said Ryan M. Smith, 20, died Saturday morning at the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics. Smith suffered skull fractures and lung injuries in the beating early Tuesday. Authorities have said drugs may have played a role in the violence.
Authorities are holding an 18-year-old man on suspicion of attempted first-degree intentional homicide. His bail was set Friday at $1 million, but Assistant District Attorney Rachel Sattler delayed formally charging him Friday, saying the charge likely would be upgraded to homicide.
The suspect has claimed self-defense, and has another hearing set for Tuesday. (6)
Big find at Milwaukee Goodwill

It is at least the fourth time in six months that valuable art has turned up at Goodwill.
A spokeswoman for the charity said workers try to spot valuables and auction them off on a website, but some are missed, which is part of what makes shopping there such an adventure. »Read Full Article

"I felt so bad. He does sports and I thought he looked fine and healthy," she said.
But that doctor's visit served as a wake-up call. »Read Full Article(22)
DNR closes third wolf hunting zone
Madison - Wisconsin is closing a third wolf harvest zone.
The state Department of Natural Resources says a zone in far northwestern Wisconsin will close to hunting and trapping of wolves effective at 5 p.m. Sunday. The zone's quota of 32 wolves was reached Saturday.
The DNR says wolf hunters and trappers should check daily for additional closures.
Kurt Thiede, DNR Lands Division administrator, noted that the state's ultimate goal is to reduce the wolf population by 116 animals, distributed across the landscape. He says wildlife managers are learning much about hunter and trapper success rates in this inaugural season that will help in drafting permanent rules. (1)
Orwell meets animation in Youngblood's challenging 'Cartoon'
Asylums and hospitals. Circus cages and suburban cul-de-sacs. Tiny apartments, cramped submarines and the antechamber to hell.
Youngblood Theatre Company's plays regularly feature nightmarish, confined spaces in which a lost generation dreams forlornly of liberation.
But Milwaukee's most exciting theater troupe has kicked it up a notch in its ambitious production of Steve Yockey's "Cartoon" - being staged, appropriately enough, in the bowels of the Milwaukee Fortress, with Michael Cotey directing. »Read Full Article
Judge orders man convicted in fatal shooting to pay for funeral
Sheboygan - A Sheboygan man convicted of fatally shooting a Hmong man has been ordered to pay $36,000 to cover funeral costs, an amount the defense argued was excessive.
The Sheboygan Press reported that the victim, Pheng Lee, 20, received a traditional Hmong funeral that lasted more than three days and included food and drink for all 500 guests.
Kou Yang, 22, was convicted in the shooting and is serving an 18-year prison sentence. »Read Full Article
Janesville man killed, three hurt in rollover crash
A 30-year-old Janesville man was killed and three other men were injured in a rollover accident in Rock County early Sunday.
The man was a front passenger in a 2007 Ford F-350 pickup truck heading east on U.S. highway 14 and onto the ramp to I-39 south about 2 a.m. Sunday. As the pickup approached the interstate from the ramp lane where it was merging, the driver accelerated and the tires lost traction on the wet pavement, according to a news release by the state Department of Transportation.
The driver lost control of the vehicle and the pickup went sideways and rolled twice, landing in a ditch. The pickup went through a chain-link fence and came to rest on its tires. »Read Full Article
Martina McBride brings Christmas glow to Milwaukee Theatre
Saturday night's outdoor temperatures and drizzle belied a calendar that had already turned over to December.
Inside the Milwaukee Theatre, a multigenerational audience of revelers was greeted with all the trappings of the Christmas season as Martina McBride crafted a classic holiday extravaganza.
Performing a two-hour set of yuletide tunes in front of 12 formally dressed musicians, this was purely a holly jolly affair. The "Joy of Christmas" tour stage was dotted by white flocked pines and flanked by a large video screen that displayed swaying snowmen, wintry landscapes, a Christmas morning at the McBride home and scenes from favorite Christmas films. Snow even fell from the rafters as sleigh bells jingled during "White Christmas." »Read Full Article

The complex case of the Piaget Emperador cushion-shaped watch magnificently brings out all the skill of Piaget's jewel-setters. It frames a watch-face with refined lines which is itself illuminated by diamonds around a center in white mother-of-pearl. The complicated movement, intended for travelers, complements its indication of the hours, minutes and small seconds by a large date window and a dual time-zone display complete with day/night indicator.
850P movement
The 850P, often called "the traveler's movement" is a automatic mechanical movement. Like its immediate predecessor, the 800P, it has a double barrel and offers three particularly useful functions for the contemporary traveler: second time zone, day/night indicator and date window at 12 o'clock. Its 12-hour time zone at 7 o'clock allows the setting of a second time, different from home time driven by the central movement. Inside this zone is the day/night indicator linked to the home time, telling the traveler whether the sun is shining in his home city. On the other side of the main dial, at 5 o'clock, a small seconds indication completes this ideal globe-trotter's watch. Circular Côtes de Genève, a circular-grained mainplate, beveled bridges, blued screws and an oscillating weight engraved with the Piaget coat-of-arms add the finishing touches to this movement and are reminders of the Swiss watchmaking brand's high esthetic values.
Shape: Round
Functions: Small seconds at 4 o'clock, Second time zone at 8 o'clock (12 hours), Day/night indicator at 8 o'clock synchronized with the main time zone, Date at 12 o'clock, Hours, Minutes

Overview Reviews Details Accessories Staff Reviews Articles & Videos by David Brown Tough earbuds with a little versatility The Spooners are water- and dust-resistant, making them great for outdoor use (White model shown). The BOOM Spooners are as unique as their name, and tougher than they sound. Designed for use outdoors and on the go, these lightweight earbuds are water- and dust-resistant, so they can handle just about anything you can. The earbud design allows you to enjoy music while remaining aware of your surroundings — perfect for biking, skateboarding, and any other activity for which you need to stay alert. But for those times when you'd rather have more noise-isolation, the Spooners come with a pair of sport tips. Just pop them on the earpieces and you'll get enhanced noise-isolation as well as a more secure fit. Spoon 'em Why Spooner? Because when you're not listening, they are easy to store by "spooning" them together. The earpieces feature magnetic backs, so they stay locked together, ideal for wrapping the cord around and keeping them easy to store and easy to unwrap, rather than untying the tangled knot most earbuds turn into in your pocket. The Spooners come with a built-in remote and microphone on the cable, so you can take calls with an iPhone® as well as control music playback and volume with any Apple® device.

Written By john, Saipan on Friday, June 14, 2013 "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality I only bought this for the mic, when I have to use Skype and such. Coz my beat pro is too huge if I have to use it for video calling. Everything is working. The sound level is okay and the mic seems okay too, but, that's it. If your expecting anything else, say use it with your iPod. You'll be greatly disappointed. This is by far the worst headset for music listening. Zero bass to speak of. As in there's not even a hint of bass. I had a $7 dollar earphone that sound better than this. So the money you'll be spending is just for the design and the mic function. 5 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Written by Ralph Graves, Staff Writer - Creative, on 4/9/2013 11:44:00 AM BOOM takes the concept of the ubiquitous white earbuds and gives them a much-needed makeover. And it's not just the color that's changed. The contoured surfaces that let the earbuds "spoon" with each other is more than just clever it makes the earbuds a managable little package when not in use. The rubberlike coating of the earbuds makes them water-resistant, but I liked it for another reason. The coating wasn't rough, but there was enough surface irregularity to hold the earbuds in place, even when I was moving around. Sound quality overall was very good another improvement over the standard white earbuds. Bass was nice and tight and the highs were clean and crisp. For on the go listening, the Spooners did great. The Spooners have soft silicone sleeves that fit over the earbuds. These sleeves provide extra stability when you're working out or doing other extreme physical activities. My only complaint is that there there was no guide in the box showing how the sleeves needed to be oriented. So I had to experiment a little (if you're wondering, the wide part of the opening should be vertical, and the loop pointing towards the back of your head). What are the Labs?

Del. Jon S. Cardin is holding a fundraiser for his exploratory committee as he considers a run for Maryland attorney general in 2014.
Cardin (D-Dist. 11) of Owings Mills, an attorney and the nephew of U.S. Sen. Benjamin L. Cardin (D), announced the fundraiser this week in an email. The event is scheduled for Dec. 4 at a home in Baltimore.
Cardin could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
Cardin was elected to the House of Delegates in 2002. In August 2009, he was criticized by The Baltimore Sun for using a Baltimore police helicopter as part of an elaborate scheme in which he borrowed a friend's boat to propose to his girlfriend in Baltimore's harbor.
Cardin joins Sen. Brian E. Frosh (D-Dist. 16) of Chevy Chase, who announced in July that he was exploring a potential run for attorney general.
Many believe current Attorney General Douglas F. Gansler will run for governor in 2014, although he has yet to confirm his intentions.
— C. Benjamin Ford

Communities in and along rail lines, including The Dalles, Hood River, Portland, Salem and Eugene could see several 1.5 mile-long coal trains rolling through town every day. A terminal handling just 10 million tons of coal each would add more than 700 noisy mile-long coal trains traveling through Oregon's rail system every year.
A single slow-moving coal train can obstruct a rail crossing by six minutes or more. Increased traffic delays at busy rail crossings would clog commuter traffic and could slow response times for emergency responders.
Added coal train traffic along Oregon's rail line would limit access to neighborhoods, schools, business corridors and ferry terminals close to the train tracks. This could drive away investors for new residential, retail and commercial developments in waterfront communities in Oregon.
Coal Train Emissions and Dust: Diesel exhaust and coal dust from coal trains can cause serious long-term health problems like lung and heart disease and cancer. Diesel exhaust is associated with asthma, cardiopulmary disease and increase incidences of cancer.
Burlington Northern Sante Fe (BNSF) railroad studies estimate at least 500 pounds of coal can be lost in the form of dust from each rail car en route. The wide ranging health dangers of coal dust include exposure to toxic heavy metals like mercury and increased rates of asthma, especially in children. Coal dust and diesel exhaust from coal trains can cause serious long-term health problems like lung and heart disease and cancer. Coal dust would pollute our clean air and water.
Toxic fish: Mercury and other pollutants from coal-burning power plants travel from Asia to the West Coast of North America where they poison our air, water, fish and food supply.
To feed both Washington and Oregon terminals, trains would be travelling through the Columbia Gorge, impacting communities and spewing dirty and dangerous coal dust throughout the windy corridor. Close to the terminals, shorelines would be given over to industrial sites with enormous piles of coal and constant dust.
The companies would ship the coal on massive cargo ships. This would mean ongoing threats to wetlands, waterways and wildlife from potential ship collisions.
Exporting coal promotes deeper global fossil fuel dependence. It delays the urgently needed transition to cleaner alternatives. It makes climate disruption inevitable, including extreme flooding and ocean acidification, impacting our shorelines and waterways.
Major public ports, such as the Ports of Vancouver and Portland have rejected coal export. The proposed sites have potential for hundreds of jobs in light industrial and smart-tech growth instead of being mired in a single-commodity, unpredictable dirty export trade. Increased coal train traffic could lower property values along the rail lines and would create congestion for critical business corridors.

Does your husband/Dad/relative/friend have a button down shirt in good condition they no longer use? Or two? Or three?
I'm going to show you several ways to re-purpose a men's shirt to make a dress, a skirt, or an apron!!
Here's how to have a new strapless dress or tunic top using a men's long sleeve shirt!!
Step 1:
With the shirt unbuttoned, center the shirt collar on your back and wrap it around under your arms. The buttons land in front and button it wherever you find it comfortable.
If you use the buttons further down, then tuck or roll the shirt above where you buttoned.
Step 2:
Button all the buttons (make sure they line up – or not. In my case they did not line up, but you can hide that it doesn't match pretty well)!
Now the sleeves are at your sides.
Step 3:
Wrap the sleeves to either side and tie into a knot or bow.
Or, try some other styles!!

Tuesday, April 22, 2014 — The movie "Noah" has brought about a lot of discussion. I went to see it and was disappointed in it as a film; I did not expect the movie to have any biblical truth.
Noah was a film about God made by a man who does not know God and perhaps doesn't even believe he exists. Because the director, Darren Aronofsky, could not capture the biblical account of Noah on film, he put a disclaimer on the piece — "artistic license has been taken."
I would hardly call it that. There was nothing artful about the film. At times it seemed the actors were reading lines rather than depicting a character. Even Russell Crowe, who is usually a good actor, portrayed a Noah I can't even describe except to say he seemed to be constantly confused.
For the full My Turn and others, read the Tuesday, April 29, 2014 edition of the Lassen County Times.

Re: Necrofusion: The Minos Complex - Trailer
Thank you!
Well, the next step after uploading the game build to our site would be to try and pitch it. Any advice you can share regarding this process? (since I've never done it before)
Re: Necrofusion: The Minos Complex - Trailer
Best advice in my opinion is produce it first then pitch, which you seem to be doing.
Have your team ready (ie agent or attorney if you have one). Thoroughly read through proposals and contacts. Have a clear idea of what you want out of the deal. Be flexible and try to make it happen. If it's not right, if you don't feel good about it, take a step back and reassess the situation. Don't let minor setbacks keep you from moving forward. Keep a positive, productive attitude at all times.
This is generic advice but it's important. Most important is to keep creating. Creative productivity is integral to success.
Good luck!

Ellen did something that many in the mainstream media have not had the courage to do. She declared her right to love as she chose, and challenged McCain to say she was wrong. For someone who believes so strongly in his position I find it interesting that he could barely make eye contact with her. Fact of the matter is that, hatred, and bigotry have no place in this world. When we truly love someone it elevates who we are as human beings. It proves that we are not violent animals incapable of beauty. To deny the love of another due to ignorance and bigotry limits not only the individual, but us all. Good for you Ellen! Now catch the video.....

I absolutely love Ellen. I think what she did her was amazing and more main stream journalist should push McCain on this issue. He is getting a walk about his bigotry while people fight it out between Clinton and Obama.

I like Ellen a lot, I would love to meet her. I also think Ellen did make a compelling argument. I can certainly empathies with her argument that the law makes her (and many others) feel like second class citizens.
Here is the problem though as I see it. What Ellen is asking for is for the state to go beyond just declaring legal partnerships and declare gay unions as having the sacred status of "marriage".
Now this is not to say that there can't be compelling arguments for why gay unions could not be considered sacred and given the term marriage; I am just not sure that government is really able to mandate any union beyond just it's legality and declare something "sacred" one way or the other. So perhaps government has over stepped its boundaries by ever declaring any legal union, even heterosexual, a marriage.
Perhaps the answer is for government to get out of the marriage game all together and declare both homosexual and heterosexual unions "civil unions" and let marriage be determined in the context of peoples various religious and cultural communities.
This way everyone would have the same legal rights and at the same time allow diverse communities to determine on their own what would constitute sacred and marriage beyond just a legal agreement and partnership; and no one could deny them that.
Just a thought, I am just trying to honestly listen and look for ways where we as a diverse people can show one another love and respect. I would love to hear your opinion.

Personally I am not in favor of marriage for anyone however it must exist is should exist for all. If we give power to the clergy to decide who and who will not be married we give up an important aspect of secular type governments. As we know religion has been used to justify many of the worlds horrors it is not stretch to assume that they would use their power for exclusion rather than inclusion. Already various denominations are protesting gay marriage.
The fact that we even have to refer to it as gay marriage is a problem. It attests to the fact that there is a difference when we know that there is not.

Just because I used the word "sacred" does not mean that i think this should only be controlled by religion. I think any couple or community can make a determination that a union has greater meaning than just the legal privileges assigned to it by government.
My point is that government should not be able to comment one way or the other on any union being more than just a legal contract. I do think it should be the same for everyone. Government should mandate a legal partnership and any other definition that goes beyond this for that union should come from the various diverse communities, whether religious or secular, that make up our country.

"Government should mandate a legal partnership and any other definition that goes beyond this for that union should come from the various diverse communities, whether religious or secular, that make up our country."
If we do not allow the government in this case to mandate change people identifying as queer will be subject to the tyranny of the majority. How we define marriage is discursively important.

Tuesday, July 30, 2002Johnson City, Tenn. (July 30, 2002) — Six East Tennessee State football players were named to the preseason All-Southern Conference team, announced Tuesday from the annual conference football rouser in Greenville, S.C. Senior wide receiver Cecil Moore (Morristown, Tenn.) and junior defensive back Tony Tiller (Lithonia, Ga.) were selected to the first team while senior linebacker Marco Bryant (Morganton, N.C.), junior defensive lineman Brandon Calton (Pennington Gap, Va.), junior defensive back Montreal Harkley (Hanahan, S.C.) and sophomore defensive back Gerald Sensabaugh (Kingsport, Tenn.) were second team members. Moore is an All-America candidate who led the SoCon with 57 receptions and 908 receiving yards. He also had five touchdown receptions in 2001. He is a game-breaking wideout and is also a dangerous punt returner for the Bucs. Tiller had a breakout season in 2001, leading the Southern Conference with seven interceptions in just his first season at the position. Also an All-America candidate, the converted wide receiver tallied 55 tackles in 10 games last year. Bryant is a quick, powerful linebacker that had 49 tackles and five for losses in six games during the 2001 season. Calton established himself as one of the top defensive linemen in the SoCon, having tallied 46 tackles, six for losses and four sacks in 11 games last year. Harkley is a tall, athletic safety that came up with 54 tackles, five for losses, a sack and five pass breakups in 2001. Sensabaugh joined Harkley and Tiller in ETSU's defensive backfield as a true freshman last season and became an impact player, notching 53 tackles, four for losses, three sacks and two interceptions. ETSU is coming off a season where it finished 6-5 (4-4 SoCon), fifth in the Southern Conference standings. The team returns all 11 starters from an imposing defense that ranked among the top-30 in the nation in 2001. The Buccaneers open the 2002 season on Aug. 31 at 7 p.m. as they travel to Raleigh, N.C. to face North Carolina State.
