I don't think the world will end and some People are making a huge deal about it. Chill and live life while u can
by _Sadie_ on 12/20/2012 8:55:25 PM
Okay, first off, I do not think the world is gonna end. Second, people chill with all this "only god knows when it will end and I don't think I will need perfect makeup then" because we are obviously kidding around. And I get maybe t some PEOPL it's serious , and we shouldn't kid around, but were just trying to brighten the mood.
by _Sadie_ on 12/20/2012 8:53:00 PM
Geez louise on a cracker! These articles are ridiculous! THE WORLD WILL NOT END TOMORROW, PEOPLE.
by HelenaPS on 12/20/2012 8:18:07 PM
Girlies, Chill! These articles are meant (I'm 99.99 percent sure) to make fun of "the end of the world"! Thank you so much for these articles GL, I just laughed so incredibly hard!

UGH!! How many more times must I say this? WE WILL NOT DIE AT MIDNIGHT!!! Get this, they can't predict the future. God can't just agree with the Mayans and kill us at midnight in the worst cases ever. So, Mayans are wrong!! There will be NO apocolispse, we WILL NOT DIE!!!
by wesdelwarrior on 12/20/2012 7:29:08 PM
REALLY?!?!?!? are you kidding me?!?!? This is just tooooooo far! All of you at GL just need to stop with all the end of the world stuff. Just please stop! Its really starting to bug me a lot!
by eclipsechick12 on 12/20/2012 7:02:27 PM
by iheartu? on 12/20/2012 6:12:37 PM
lol I absolutely love this post so much!!! LOL LED lip gloss!!! Who cares if the world may not end. These ideas are good ideas even if you just lose power!!!
by BabyDahl13 on 12/20/2012 6:10:24 PM
Okay this is a little bit too much. There are too many articles on the mayan apocalypse on this website right now. GL I think you should tone it down with all of this end of the world stuff.
by fieldhockey001 on 12/20/2012 5:48:07 PM
I agree with drummergirl133, lilyyum, and hardwoodqueen almost 100%. I put up with it because it's fun, and even though the world isn't going to end we can still use this as a packing guide for trips and things. But yeah, it is a little excessive--all this "end of the world" stuff. I'm actually looking forward to the 22nd, just cause it'll be funny when those who thought the world was going to end realize it never did.
Oh, and actually they found more Mayan calendars saying the world won't end for tens of thousands of years, anyway--though only God knows when the world will end. It says so in the Bible. How do I know the Bible doesn't lie? Well I believe it doesn't,I trust it. But If that isn't enough...................................it passes the internal and external test better than any other historical document of its time, and still passes the bibliographic test very well. So ha.
by awesomegirl4everandalways on 12/20/2012 4:07:32 PM
So if the Mayans could predict the "end of the world", why weren't they smart enough to save their own civilization?
by sophlida on 12/20/2012 4:00:07 PM
I agree with u drummergirl133. only God does know when the worlds going to end. I think no one can predict that except for God.
by hardwoodqueen on 12/20/2012 2:43:15 PM
First off, why all this end of the world nonsense?! I know it's just fort fun and all but it's kinda excessive. And if the world did end? The last thing on my mind would be manicures, perfect blush and lipgloss, and if my hair was shiny or not. I also agree with drummergirl133, only God knows when the world will end. While this is a nice list of travel cosmetics, I wouldn't be worrying if the world did indeed end.
by lilyyum on 12/20/2012 2:13:09 PM
OMG I have the EXACT same Hello Kitty nail clippers! I got these a LONG time ago!
by TresSapphire on 12/20/2012 2:11:36 PM
Wow. Only God knows when the world is going to end. And anyways, beauty products arent even important if the world was to end tomorrow!
by drummergirl133 on 12/20/2012 1:20:58 PM
Thank goodness I already have a ton of those little hand sanitizers. That's one less thing to worry about
by catlover11 on 12/20/2012 11:50:15 AM
ummm if the world really does end i dont think lip gloss or beauty supplies would protect us....

Speeding violation nets DUI citationOctober 07,2013
Stop for speeding
nets DUI citation
WAITSFIELD A Warren man, who state police claim was speeding down Route 100 in a 40-year-old Volkswagen late Saturday night, is expected to be charged with driving under the influence when he is arraigned next month in Barre.
Police say they pulled over a 1973 Volkswagen Karmann operated by 64-year-old David Campanelli at approximately 11 p.m. Saturday. Campanelli, police allege, had been driving in excess of the posted speed limit.
During the course of the traffic stop, police arrested Campanelli for suspicion of driving under the influence. He was later released on a citation to appear at the criminal courthouse in Barre on Nov. 7. He is expected to be charged at that time.MORE IN This Just In

YMMV: The Screwtape Letters
- Big Lipped Alligator Moment: There's a random scene in the play where Toadpipe brandishes knives at the audience while creepy music plays. Why she does this is never explained, not even from a Doylist perspective, since the set isn't changed during that scene, and only purpose seems to be to set up the knives for the final scene.
- I think Screwtape said something about getting ready to "receive the patient". I guess it was to showcase exactly what was in store for either the corrupted mortal or the hapless tempter that failed to bring him in.
- Creator Backlash: A relatively mild example. Lewis said in the foreword of later editions that while Screwtape was one of the easiest things he ever wrote, it was also the least enjoyable. As he put it, it caused a kind of moral cramp, forcing himself into a demonic mindset. He also resented it for not being something he felt he wasn't skilled enough to write - Screwtape's advice balanced by angelic advice from Heaven. For these reasons, he never wrote a sequel, though he did write a toast (a scathing criticism of the American educational system at the time and its resulting Tall Poppy Syndrome) in Screwtape's voice.
- Evil Is Cool: Subverting this is pretty much the whole point. Not only is Screwtape himself a stuck-up member of Hell's middle management and a cranky Jerkass with no sense of humor, but he gives tips to Wormwood on how to minimize how much The Patient can enjoy sinning.
And anyway, why should the creature be happy?!
- Hey, It's That Voice!: In the Focus on the Family audio adaptation, Screwtape was played by none other than Andy Serkis.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
With the March 7 effective date of the Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act looming and the first Annual Security Reports impacted by the Act due later this year, the time for institutions of higher education to focus on updating policies and procedures is upon us.
On March 7, 2013, President Obama signed into law the "Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013" (VAWA). Section 304 of VAWA, known as the Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act (the "Campus SaVE Act" or "the Act"), amends the Clery Act, expanding the disclosure and policy obligations of institutions of higher education. The Act becomes effective on March 7, 2014, requiring that the 2014 annual security report ("ASR") prepared by institutions of higher education incorporate the provisions of the Act.
Despite the many, and complicated, requirements of the Campus SaVE Act, it is set to take effect without regulatory guidance from the U.S. Department of Education ("DOE"). Negotiated rulemaking is ongoing and the results of that process are not anticipated to be made public until later this year. Despite the lack of final guidance from DOE, institutions are under an obligation to use "best efforts" to comply with the requirements of the Act this year.1
Implementation of the Campus SaVE Act on your campus requires that your institution2:
The requirements of the Campus SaVE Act are many and the interplay of the Act with the requirements of Title IX is nuanced. A careful reading of the statute is necessary to ensure that your institution has adopted, implemented and is appropriately publicizing all required policies, procedures, and programs.

Law & Politics
Can you imagine one scenario in which China generals, marshals, admirals, high government ministers, politburo members, governors, rich persons, and important people are driving along in their foreign cars, and suddenly drones show up in front of some cars' windshields and then... POP, POP, P...
Their cars are foreign all built with foreign (US) computers and software that could be up linked to GPS!
Conspiracy theory? May be.
All dead. And China now was left without people to defend her. Score: US 1; China -1.
Can you imagine one scenario in which China generals, marshals, admirals, high government ministers, politburo members, governors, rich persons, and important people are driving along in their domestic cars, and suddenly the cars crumbles in the middle of the highway, falling apart, like most Chinese-made junks usually do…
Can you imagine driving along the street in a Chinese city when an ebike comes toward you going the wrong way down the street in the dark with no lights on. Damn fools haven't even the sense to value their own lives, why would they care about yours.
Is cyber war is not cold at all. There are real casualties. And it started decades ago. Most people are just not aware of it. We've got hacks from PRC and all other countries for decades. It is just now PRC has enough unguarded private computers (Home PC's), and network connections for them to launch huge DDOS attacks. But these massive attacks are not as dangerous and damaging as stealing info from servers.
Breaking cars etc. are nice, but not as damaging as hacking into military command and control infrastructure so that control commands can be sent from Pentagon to PLA units in the field, or change target coordinates in their firing mechanism, or reduce transmission power of their radio systems. Just don't cause complete failure of equipment, because replacing them is easy. Undetectable errors are much more damaging, hard to find, hard to fix.
"I don't think I am informed enough to really answer this question..."
If only more people thought like this.
A "cyber Cold War". What silliness. IT co-option and misuse will always exist everwhere. The yields are just too tempting and the opportunites too great. It's not a war but the nature of the beast.
For those concerned that some Commie general will be tracked in his car and popped, let me give you something to REALLY worry about. What if a hostile nation (or individual) hijacks the command and control system of China and launches its nuclear missiles.........against Chinese cities and installations ?
Since the NSA leaks like a sieve, how about organised crime pay someone at the NSA for some of the NSA's back-doors.
Then they hack the servers of Nasdaq Or Dow jones.
Or just launch all the US missiles.
Or destroy all the power stations.
Or all the hospital emergency systems.
Or air traffic control.
Or program your cable box to remove fox 'news'
Or mess with anything connected to the Internet.
Or all of the above.

...to stop using the word synergy in press releases?
Would they come with that GNU car smell?
because the ink layer is so thin, these circuits have an incredible amount of resistance, even with really fat lines.
I have one of these pens and it is a fun novelty, but not useful for practical circuits. The metal content isn't high enough. It's better applied to art projects and for kids teaching where you can show them a lot of circuit concepts in a very visual manner. That's where I felt this product would excel. If you drag a lead to a lightbulb over a 10" line, depending on how thick it is the bulb will be completely out either in a few inches or with a fat line over the whole length.
A version where you squired a lot more of the material with a thickener out of a mustard type squeeze bottle would get you some more functionality. But it's fun for the kids.
Like another earlier poster, I still consider home automation to be a hobby, especially after trying it enthusiastically for a while. Reason being: It's expensive, it takes a lot of time, it's buggy and it's not necessary. But it can be fun if you're willing to deal with the downsides.
The big power-user product for home automation control is a very powerful piece of software called homeseer. If you're really serious about it and you want to do a lot with scripted events, that's a good bet, although it's not consumer friendly. It does run locally, you're not surrendering data to a company or the cloud and everything is yours and everything is configurable. I'm curious about the new localized box in the link as an alternative.
For a while I installed insteon switches and controllers all over the house. One by one they died, I don't think they liked the unreliable power where I lived at the time. Frustrated, I tore it all out and went back to plain old switches; I knew they would just work when I needed them to. I'm open to trying again, especially now that I am in a much larger house and I want to do things like gang-control upstairs and downstairs thermostats in unison to optimize efficiency for the temperature gradient, and control far flung light switches with a master switch or smartphone app. But it's quite an investment to replace all those switches and outlets. Fortunately you don't have to go all in at once, you can just do the things you need the most to start with.
It seems like most pure EV's from the major manufacturers are so called 'compliance cars' built to meet (largely nonsensical) regulatory requirements. They are not widely advertised and no one buys them because they are so expensive compared to their IC counterparts and have significantly less range. The Tesla model S, an EV designed for its own sake, is a wonderful exception, but the price point puts it out of range for 95% of consumers.
Given the slow incremental improvement in battery technology, do you envision a cost effective, honestly mass market-palletable EV being possible in the next 10 years? Is GM working towards that goal?
Others here have alluded simiarly. What if EVERY SINGLE MAJOR DAILY IN THE WORLD published the same images? They would no longer have a specific target and the streisand effect would be complete.
Also, the idea of a terrorist takeover of a suborbital flight is ridiculous on many levels.
...will basically be executives who's time is worth the price to get them to Tokyo and back for a deal. The very nature of the beast entails a small number of seats and thus a high price per seat. The cost and logistics go up by a very large amount when you increase the size of the vehicle. There are also issues with generating supersonic booms in places that are not used to it, limiting it to mostly ocean overflights or re-entering over sparsely populated areas. It won't be a mass market item, but there may be a market for it. In the mean time, up-and-down suborbital will have a larger market than point to point.
Burning Man has created an artificial monopoly for ice. By the description it sounds much like bread lines in Russia. If you try to bottleneck and manage essential goods at a single source, it invariably gets unmanageable as it scales up. They're dealing with a pretty large population these days for a bunch of festival organizers.
Based on the commenter who described the actual process via way of being a volunteer, a short term solution without getting into the political questions is to massively increase parallelism during peak times. Despite the pretty simple process, the peak demand is straining the system.
If they kept statistics about load vs. time they could figure out easily when to have a whole bunch more labor present to get the job done more quickly for the throngs of thousands.
Funny enough it's been tried as a business concept, though under different circumstances. In the mid-90s a company called AngelCorp wanted to build a series of manned aircraft that could loiter at high altitudes for long periods of time to provide high speed internet access. This was shortly before DSL, CableModems, WIfi and T1/T3 connectivity at the workplace would pretty much saturate that market. Bad timing.
Scaled Composites built one ship, the Proteus, a beautiful, revolutionary aircraft that is still in use today for many other payload missions such as airborne laser testing. The Proteus was also the uncle of White Knight I, the mothership for SpaceShipOne.
The odd thing is, the AngelCorp website still exists, frozen in time.
With advances in battery propulsion and cheap UAV / drone guidance systems, it could be a workable thing for providing temporary access to remote regions.
If you are open to using Windows, buy a copy of Sony Vegas Movie studio for fifty bucks. It's a stripped down version of Sony Vegas, which is a very powerful professional editing package, I prefer Vegas to Premiere and Final Cut.
Basically I did not see any limitations with the movie studio edition that would prevent you from making nice, clean HD videos. The editing interface is far better than Premiere's as far as I'm concerned.
...but I actually don't use more than about 600MB per month on average. I could have a newer plan and it wouldn't matter, but they charge exactly the same for their lowest current data tier ($30/mo) as I am paying for unlimited. I'm keeping it on principle.
I saw her still doing stuff for Newtek at NAB shows until more recently, she still looked good. Yup we all loved her back in the day.
Also, by the time Voyager came around LW was being used on windows machines. I turned down a job doing the 'anomaly of the week' for Voyager at Foundation to go work at Digital Domain instead. Large unix-driven renderfarms for LW and their other tools. Pretty spoiled for gettin your frames done...also never worked with more talented people in my life. They had just come off doing Titanic and The 5th Element. Lots of Lightwave digital ship shots in Titanic by Frank Alber, he went on to become a big guy at Pixar. The stuff still holds up today.
I'd take this guy's advice if you just want some Amiga hardware to fiddle about with. The A1200 is a good late model choice. I remember owning one as a general purpose machine to replace the 500 I had.
Here here....a lot of show title sequences rendered on the one we had at the station. That eventually led to my vfx career. Got in when lightwave was the hot thing and rode it all the way to its peak down in LA. Good times. Eventually got tired of staring at a monitor for 10 hours a day though and switched careers. Still do a little photoreal FX rendering as part of my job, but only about 10% of it now.
In space, no one can hear you fart.

Spoof: "If Guy Best Friends Acted Like Girl Best Friends"...Or Gay Best Friends
Instinct Staff | August 26, 2014
We found this new BuzzFeed video "If Guy Best Friends Acted Like Girl Best Friends" amusing, if only because the friendship dynamic between these heterosexual guy best friends seemed so...familiar.
You'll get what we mean! Watch!
Just besties being besties.

It's not how gay best friend act. Why do the gay community associate girls with gay males so much? Generalizing is stupid. Not everyone like that, in fact a lot of people are NOT like that.

Miami's Erik Spoelstra and the Thunder's Scott Brooks were in last year's NBA Finals and are favored to get back there again, so they must be doing something right. Brooklyn's P.J. Carlesimo has gone 33-18 since taking over the 14-14 Nets. Memphis coach Lionel Hollins endured a salary dump from his ownership group and appears headed for the homecourt advantage in the first round of the playoffs. The Clippers won their first division title ever – including their days in Buffalo – but no one seems particularly enamored with coach Vinny Del Negro.
That's, what, a dozen coaching candidates?
There are so many worthy possibilities out there we could throw together an all-injured team with Chicago's Derrick Rose and Boston's Rajon Rondo at the guards, Indiana's Danny Granger and Minnesota's Kevin Love at the forwards and Philadelphia's Andrew Bynum at center.

OU football recruiting notebook: Bob Stoops anticipates Cody Thomas will stick with football
OU defensive coordinator Mike Stoops not-do-subtly denied telling incoming freshman safety Hatari Byrd that he'd start right away.
"Let's get one thing clear. People have spoken about promising kids positions," Stoops said. "I think that's ludicrous that anyone would speculate that I would ever do that. I've never done that in all my years of coaching, promised a kid a position."
Byrd told The Oklahoman late last month that he was told he'd start next season at one of the Sooners' safety positions, both of which are vacant after the departures of Javon Harris and Tony Jefferson.
"You earn everything you get here at Oklahoma," Stoops said. "If a kid misspoke or misinterpreted, again, that falls on people preying on young players and kids maybe not knowing how to handle the situation that well.
"But I think you guys know me well enough that I would never promise anybody a starting position. These guys will all earn their way through the process of coming in this summer and earning their playing time."
Norvell laughed and admitted feeling a little nervous about new receiver signee Dannon Cavil's drive from San Antonio to Norman last month, when Cavil enrolled early at Oklahoma.
"There are some anxious moments knowing that he had to drive to Austin to get to us," Norvell said.
"(Texas) offered him late. We had about three of our skill players, they came after hard at the end and we were able to weather the storm."
Cavil, a three-star receiver according to Rivals, decommitted from Ole Miss, then Cal before settling on Oklahoma, which was the offer he'd been waiting for all along.
Westmoore offensive lineman Nick Hardaway will head to OU as a preferred walk-on.
"I wasn't for sure I was going to get my D-1 chance, but this is it and I had to take it," Hardaway said. "This is my shot to go play OU football. It's been a dream of mine since I was a little kid."
Hardaway believes there's no better time than now to be an offensive lineman at Oklahoma.
"With their offensive line situation right now they've told me they can really use me," Hardaway said. "For a preferred walk-on that's going to play offensive line, this seemed like a good time to be heading to OU."
The 6-foot-4, 315-pound Hardaway expects to play mostly at guard for the Sooners with the possibility of playing center as well. He joins Edmond North's Heath Newland, another interior offensive linemen who will walk on for the Sooners.
Norman High quarterback Zach Long has chosen to walk on at OU, with the encouragement of Bob Stoops' staff. Long won't have a scholarship, but he will have a chance to help the Sooners.
"I told Zach, be prepared to do anything," said his father, Chuck Long, Stoops' quarterback and/or offensive coordinator from 2000-05.
When Chuck Long became San Diego State's head coach in 2006, the Longs moved away from Norman. But when the Aztecs fired Long three years later, and Chuck Long became offensive coordinator at Kansas, Zach Long decided to return to Norman to finish his high school career with the friends he grew up with.
Long became Norman's starting quarterback as a sophomore and in 2012 was the District 6A-4 offensive player of the year.
Long was recruited by a variety of small colleges but chose to go to OU sans scholarship.
"I ultimately want to coach," Zach said. "I know if I go there, it'll be a great experience."

Andy Stanley opened Catalyst 09 with an illustration from the Ridley Scott movie, Kingdom of Heaven. In this movie, set in the medieval Crusades, the blacksmith has a phrase inscribed in his shop in Latin: "What man is a man who does not leave the world better?"
Andy then set up this tension: If you have the leadership gift, you want to make a mark, to leave the world better. But you won't know your legacy, even your greatest mistake, until years later. The defining moment will happen when you don't know it's happening. So the problem/challenge for leaders is you don't know the thing you'll do that will make the biggest difference.
What to do? Andy drew insights from the Book of Joshua:
When Joshua enters the Promised Land, he is on the verge of making his mark. The incident that I believe marked Joshua is when he's a couple of days out from attacking the city of Jericho. In Joshua 5:13, Joshua saw a man in front of him with a drawn sword. Joshua asks him, "Are you for us or against us?" The man (angel) answers, "Neither. No." In effect, he's speaking for God: "I have not come to be a part of your story; I've come to see if you're willing to play a part in my story."
Later, when Joshua was 110 years old, he addresses the nation and says (23:8), "Cling to the Lord your God as you have done this day. … Take diligent heed to yourselves to love the Lord Your God…. Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."
Why this is so challenging to me: I would like to think that at the end of your life you will be able to look back and see that you have made your mark. To be able to love the Lord your God and to say to the generation behind, "There is no greater thrill and joy in ...

Home Russian
A "kotiryssä" (literally "Home Russian") is a Soviet or Russian contact person of a politician, bureaucrat, businessman or other important person in Finland. The term "kotiryssä" refers especially to Soviet spies stationed in Helsinki in the 1960s and 1970s who were designated by the Soviet government to gather information from specific persons in Finnish politics and government. As such information gathering techniques have arguably always been prevalent among spies, some Finns have argued that the kotiryssä system was a normal way to conduct diplomatic relations between two countries.[1] The dozens of KGB officers working out of the Tehtaankatu embassy of the Soviet Union is now well documented.[2] The public did not know about the system until the book Tamminiemen pesänjakajat was published in 1981.[3] The kotiryssä system was closely related to Finlandization.
- Viktor Vladimirov - KGB officer for elite Finnish politicians, including Urho Kekkonen.[2][4][5]
- Felix Karasev - KGB officer who arrived in April 1985 to replace Vladimirov.[6]
- Vladimir Stepanov - KGB officer and later Soviet Ambassador to Finland.[7]
- Sergei Ivanov - KGB officer for six years in Finland in the 1980s, following alleged deportation from the UK. He worked directly under Karasev. Later a top member of the Russian government.[2]

Chicago new years eve party, live TV Broadcast details

Nashville new year parties, live music concerts, top restaurants
The undoubted capital of the West Midlands (not to be confused with its namesake in Alabama) and probably the Midlands of England as a whole, Birmingham take part in New Years Eve in great style, with a huge range of parties and festivities from small bars to large restaurants and the massive public party with midnight countdown and fireworks display in Centenary Square.
I've spent quite a bit of time in Birmingham over the years thanks to having family in the area and have alweays been impressed by the range of nightlife in the city centre in particular, and you always seem to be assured of a firnedly welcome from the locals so I can only imagine it would be a great place to see in the new year - will definitely have to get there one time!
The big New Years event in Birmingham is without doubt the midnight firework display in Centenary Square right in the heart of the city, which attracts families and party-goers alike to the city centre to take part in the countdown and enjoy the spectacle together - this is set to return for NYE 2016, so you just need to hope for good weather!
In the wider city area, Birmingham has a pretty wide range of nightclubs these days, and with bars with late licenses competing for business there really is a huge range of options to choose from. Top NYE parties for 2015-2016 include Bar Risa, Bliss Clubrooms and Flares Nightclub.
Similar for restaurants, this really is a cosmopolitan city so you'll be able to find a meal out whatever your preference, although on a personal note I have to recommend the local curries as some of the best in the country, especially at the well known Asha's Contemporary Indian on Newhall Street and Spicemenu, which offers fusion Asian cuisine. For all the top Birmingham restaurants, with online booking and customer reviews click here.
Away from the main events, families in the area tend to spend the evening in their local bars, which avoids the trouble and expense of commuting to the city centre, which is more the preserve of the younger crowd at this time of year so nearby towns such as Halesowen, Solihull, Dudley, West Bromwich and Wolverhampton are all worth a look if they're easier for you to get to.
Places to watch live online, including a live stream from the Bullring:
Birmingham boasts a remarkable range of accommodation, from humble guest houses and serviced apartments to family run bed and breakfasts right up to major international chains and 4 and 5 star luxury establishments. Booking early is recommended. Check availability and book local hotels here.

Grand Slam Tennis - Nintendo Wii
3.5 stars
Motion Plus control system, Nunchuk player control, fun in multiplayer
Control isn't truly consistent, add-on is a bit on the expensive side, single player lacks any real reward
The Wii's phenomenal success with its intuitive control system has given traditional game developers a brand new avenue of gaming to explore. With gamer movement and interaction required in earnest, as opposed to a few button prods, a much wider variety of potential experiences have been conjured up. Even in traditionally rigidly structured genres.
EA's Grand Slam Tennis takes the basis of Wii Sports Tennis and takes things up a few levels. Combined with the freshly released Wii Motion Plus peripheral, which promises to offer much more accurate representations of your Wii Remote swings and thrusts, it aims to pave the way forward for sporting related titles.
Grand Slam Tennis doesn't, however, aim for true one-to-one movement representation - something which is promised in the current adverts populating the airwaves. Instead it takes into account your Remote swinging speeds and the manner in which you hold the Remote in order to make your chosen tennis playing character strike the ball in the way you desire. Just remember that the front part of the Remote - the one packing the buttons - is considered the face of the racket.
It does, essentially, work. At first you'll be swaying around in a similar manner to Wii Sports, and viewing the same old quite unpredictable results seen in the aforementioned Wii bundle title. But a little time proves that shot manipulation becomes intuitive and impressively accurate.
Shots do aim towards the spot you're urging the ball to drop, and the game does a good job of reigning you in a touch. With true representation, the majority of us would barely manage a single shot per match landing within the lines of the court, so the game does its best to give a much needed helping hand. Plus, lobs and drop shots are made with a racquet swing combined with a button press, so all isn't that realistic in terms of play.
What is a fantastic addition is the inclusion of Nunchuk control. Now you can utilise that sizey analogue nub on the Nunchuk to force your player to rush about the court. It sounds such a tiny little simple change to Wii Sports Tennis, but it adds such an incredible amount to proceedings. It does, however, take a lot of time to get used to. It'll take your mind quite a while to realise that the analogue stick is used solely to move your character and not aim your shot too.
Sadly it's not all peaches and cream. Just like any other new control method, the Wii Motion Plus can be a temperamental beast. It may happen only once or twice per dozen matches, but those moments where your player suddenly refuses to swing, despite the incredible arc of brilliance you've just created in your living room, is more than enough to cause a Wii Remote shaped hole in the wall. And when the racquet connects with ball, there still are a few instances of the ball veering off in completely the wrong direction. Again it's a rare occurrence, but one that flatly brings you right back to earth.
Visually, the Wii's power constraints have been overcome by utilising stylised representations of some your tennis favourites. Bold clear lines, and colourful backdrops make for a visually appealing title. It's not quite a Wii best by any stretch of the imagination, but it performs its job admirably and attractively.
Single player-wise the game again does a fair old job. Taking you through various friendly match-ups before hitting the major circuit, you earn new skills and abilities from stronger serves, to more attempt-worthy lobs. Sadly the large portion of unlocks as you play through are yet more blandly coloured clothes to layer upon your created tennis sensation. Sadly a form of gaming victory that's a long way behind what we truly desire.
Multiplayer-wise things take an upswing. Up to four gamers can play on one screen, as expected. And although it lacks the immediate fun to even the newest of gamers that Wii Sports Tennis packs, it's still a riot when you've got to grips with the control system. And for those of you lacking the friends/money required for all those Remotes and Nunchuks, the online mode is sturdy enough to while away more than a few evenings.
As far as modern tennis titles go, Grand Slam Tennis has all the facets you could desire. It looks good, it's great fun with friends, and it plays a decent representation of the racquet-based sport.
It's a shame that a few control based inconsistencies, and a sub par single player career mode leave things a little less enthralling than we'd hoped for.

A Legacy Lives On
Family Donates Items to County in Memory of Generous Grandmother
One of the traits that Ruth Hunter most admired about her Grandmother Bessie was her playful spirit.
Standing just 4 feet 11 inches in her black laced oxfords, Bessie Cramer Johnston loved to invent games and tell stories to entertain her grandchildren. On hot summer nights, says Hunter, Johnston would spread white sheets on the grass so the children could study the stars and wish on them. On cold nights, she would find icy windowpanes and spin yarns about Jack Frost.
"I grew up holding on to her apron, watching her cook and bake at the black iron wood stove," says Hunter, adding that one of the treats Bessie baked was lady fingers for impromptu tea parties.
Another trait that Hunter admired was Johnston's generosity and compassion for her fellow man – "especially those in need," emphasizes Hunter.
To her grandmother, says Hunter, "a hobo was only someone less fortunate and Jesus in disguise."
When Johnston owned the Clifton Bakery and Quick Lunch in Ashland during the 1920s, she would feed ministerial students from Randolph-Macon College at her own expense.
During the Depression, she collected clothes and food for the gypsies and their babies who camped in cars near Brook Road in Glen Allen. Once she had filled a wagon with her collection, the tiny woman would haul it to the gypsy camp, accompanied by her granddaughter.
"I was eight or nine," recalls Hunter. "I was probably almost as tall as she was."
So when it comes to honoring her grandmother's memory, it's only fitting that Hunter has echoed that generosity – and incorporated Grandmother Bessie's playfulness as well – by donating toys, dolls and other playthings to a Henrico museum.
On Nov. 24, Hunter visited Meadow Farm Museum to make her latest donation: a "Bessie doll" made in 1872, the same year her grandmother was born.
"She is a Grenier [doll]," says Hunter, "a homely doll [with a] papier mache head." Hunter believes Grandmother Bessie would approve of the doll's plain appearance, since Johnston – who was born in the Poconos near Stroudsburg, Pa. – used to call herself "the homeliest girl in the mountains."
Shoes and Thimbles
Perhaps it was Johnston's "homely" designation that helped make her so sensitive to the plight of others.
Bessie had a sister who was thought of as beautiful, says Hunter, and once told her granddaughter about family gifts received from an aunt when she was about 10.
Emma, the sister, received a beautiful doll; but it took Johnston awhile to find her gift.
"Finally, down in the very bottom of the package, was a little thimble for Bessie," says Hunter, adding that the sterling thimble is now cherished by her daughter-in-law.
But Bessie Johnston's faith undoubtedly contributed to her giving and compassionate nature as well. A devout Baptist, she was a charter member of Biltmore Baptist Church.
"Her credo," says Hunter, "was simple: to complain is an insult to God."
Johnston arrived in Ashland in 1911 when her husband moved his family to be near his father, H.C.N. Johnston of Passaic, New Jersey, who had bought the 300-acre Winn farm on Elmont Road a few years earlier.
Until she and her husband moved to Henrico County, sometime around 1927, Bessie operated the bakery on Railroad Avenue.
Hunter has written about the lunch spot in a commemorative book marking the town of Ashland's 150th anniversary.
"I am told she is written up in the annals of [Randolph-Macon College] for her contributions to the well-being of the students," writes Hunter. "The menu included soups, sandwiches and pies of many flavors.
"Bessie was a Yankee and had never heard of grits or collards, so she cooked or baked what was familiar to her: foods of Pennsylvania. Her heritage, going back to early American days, was German, English, Dutch, Swiss and possibly a little French thrown in."
Ruth Hunter's special connection with her grandmother may have reached a peak, however, in her third grade year.
"We wore the same shoe size [that year]," she says, "so she ordered us shoes form the Spiegel catalog – exactly alike!"
"I sometimes wondered," says Hunter, "if she loved me only because I was the child of her cherished daughter. But she loved everyone – except the doctor who called me homely when comparing me to my prettier mother."
Billy Goats and Buckets
As a family, the Hunters have a long history with Meadow Farm.
Hunter's son, Robert Jr., did archaeology digs on the grounds as a student, and described the farm experience in his graduate dissertation at the College of William and Mary.
Hunter was born just a few miles away from Meadow Farm, near Mountain Road, in 1928.
At the presentation of the Bessie doll, Johnston's great-granddaughter Debbie Frost Bohn joined her cousin Ruth, and they discussed the legions of relatives who have lived in the Meadow Farm area for decades.
Bohn recounted stories she heard as a child from her own grandmother "about the ladies getting off at the train station in their big dresses, going to big balls at the Forest Lodge." Bohn has recently taken an interest in the family history, and credits Hunter for helping her learn more about the Johnstons and other ancestors.
"[So] many generations of my family have grown up here, and still go to Glen Allen Church," says Bohn. "We all lived on Blackburn. My mother – Bessie's granddaughter – still lives here. It's all still connected."
In addition to the Bessie doll, Hunter and her family have presented Meadow Farm with several other items over the years: blacksmith tools, brass buckets, fireplace and farm tools, and a hide-covered trunk lined with early newspapers – all in keeping with the farm's 19th-century origins.
On Hunter's 81st birthday, her grandchildren presented "Billy" for placement in the children's bedroom in the circa 1860 farmhouse. "Billy" the goat, a late 19th-century riding toy with iron wheels and a brass bell at his neck, had enjoyed many years as a decoration in the Hunter home.
"Rather than try and put the goat on a gift list," says Hunter, "since more than one of our children may want it – and like Solomon we cannot cut him in half – we like the thought of the public enjoying Billy in the old farmhouse."
As she was with the riding goat, Hunter is happy to make a home for the Bessie doll, and to honor once again the memory of her grandmother.
Even after all these years, says Hunter, Johnston has a powerful everyday influence on her. Whenever she feels the urge to whine or complain, for instance, she hears
her grandmother's voice admonishing her.
"Today, every trip I make to the compost pile with vegetable scraps, or to tend the herbs, or bake bread from scratch, or love a grandchild – I think of my grandmother," says Hunter. "To emulate her in small ways is all I can accomplish.
"I tell you," she adds wistfully, "I loved that little lady."

The Moral Majority of the New Left
How much say should the political process have over what we can freely buy and sell?
How much say should the political process have over what we can freely buy and sell?
Smith interrupts his usual series with a 30-question trivia quiz.
Smith discusses his ideas about "strategic Taoism."
Smith discusses some of the problems in libertarian theory caused by the many different conceptions of liberty.
George H. Smith criticizes Jason Brennan's defense of positive liberty and his attempt to make positive liberty an essential part of libertarian theory.
Smith criticizes Jason Brennan's view of the origin of "hard libertarianism" and his treatment of Ayn Rand.
Smith begins his critical examination of Jason Brennan's recent book with a discussion of the label "libertarianism" and its relationship to classical liberalism.
George H. Smith discusses why Ayn Rand believed that altruism is incompatible with benevolence and charitable actions.
George H. Smith discusses Ayn Rand's notion of self-sacrifice and the crucial role that duty played in her theory of altruism.
David Boaz highlights movies with strong themes of liberty.
George H. Smith explores Ayn Rand's contention that altruism plays an indispensable role in the justification of political collectivism.
George H. Smith discusses one of Rand's major objections to both altruism and the traditional concept of egoism.
Smith begins his series on Ayn Rand's critique of altruism with a discussion of the ideas of Auguste Comte, the man who coined the word "altruism."
George H. Smith concludes the series with a look at Roy Childs's evolving views on anarchism.
George H. Smith turns to what may be Roy Childs's most recognized role in the libertarian movement: book reviewer.
In this essay, written in response to J. A. Hobson, Herbert shows how socialism depends upon the illegitimate use of force.
George H. Smith tackles several misconceptions about the theory of anarchism—and contrasts it with the condition of anarchy.
Auberon Herbert defends individualism against the collectivist ideas that man exists only as part of the group and that "society" has its own wants and needs.
Herbert defends a principle of liberty which holds that "freedom in … pursuit of happiness must not interfere with the exactly corresponding freedom of others."
Smith discusses the influence of Robert LeFevre on the developing anarchism of Roy A. Childs, Jr.
Auberon Herbert argues that politics must be based on general principles grounded in an understanding of human nature.
Smith begins his series on Roy A. Childs, Jr., with the impact Childs's anarchism had on his own thinking.
Increasing the sphere of politics leads to bad policy and increased vice.
In this excerpt from Man Versus the State, Herbert Spencer argues that as the state tries to regulate more of our lives, it inches us closer to slavery.
Smith analyzes two kinds of freedom, pragmatic and moral, and gives examples of how this distinction has been used in the history of libertarian thought.

And that act, couresy of one Christopher Kirsh's Vine account, lasts approximately six seconds:
Adrian Beltre unsure if he'll be ready for Game 3 of the ALDS
Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre sat out Game 2 of the ALDS on Friday due to a lower back strain and he told Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News that he's unsure whether he'll be ready to return when the series resumes Sunday in Arlington.
"I can't really say," Beltre said after sitting out the Rangers' 6-4 14-inning win over Toronto on Friday because of a lower back strain. It got a little better as the game went on. But I can't say if I will be ready to play or not."
Beltre tweaked his back on a slide into second base in the first inning of Game 1 on Thursday. He received a cortisone injection in an effort to stay in the game, but his back locked up on him again while running to first base on an RBI single in the third inning. While he was in a lot of pain at the time, Rangers manager Jeff Banister said that there's been "some improvement" since. Beltre was able to take a few swings off the tee during Game 2 yesterday.
There's obviously no replacing someone like Beltre, but the Rangers have managed to grab a 2-0 series lead over the Blue Jays without him. His replacement, Hanser Alberto, committed an error yesterday which opened the door for two runs to score, but he later redeemed himself with a go-ahead RBI single in the 14th inning.
Video: Jacob deGrom pranks Daniel Murphy in postgame press conference
After dominating the Dodgers in Game 1 of the NLDS last night with 13 strikeouts over seven scoreless innings, Jacob deGrom's best performance might have been pranking Daniel Murphy in the postgame press conference.
As you'll see in the video below, deGrom sat down between David Wright and Murphy. Wright appears to lower the seat of the shaggy-haired right-hander. This gave deGrom the idea to do the same for an unsuspecting Murphy. The reaction was priceless…
Yes, Murphy let out a "yowzers." Appropriately enough, "yowzers" is likely how the Dodgers would summarize facing deGrom last night.
Dodgers manager Don Mattingly defends decision to pull Clayton Kershaw
The Mets took Game 1 of the NLDS last night with a 3-1 victory over the Dodgers. A two-run single from David Wright in the top of the seventh inning ended up being the difference in the ballgame. Wright's hit came off Pedro Baez, who replaced Clayton Kershaw after the Dodgers' ace walked the bases loaded during the frame.
After Wright's hit, some questioned why Dodgers manager Don Mattingly turned to Baez rather than stick with his ace. Per Ken Gurnick of MLB.com, this was Mattingly's explanation after the game.
"Going into that inning we kind of looked at what his pitch count was, and kind of thought through Granderson, if we got back to Wright, the fourth time through, David pumps on lefties pretty good," said Mattingly. "Felt like that was going to be a spot if we got to that point, thought we were going to make a move there."
It's hard to argue with the logic. Kershaw was nearly unhittable through the first six innings, with his lone mistake coming on a long solo home run from Daniel Murphy, but it was a different story in the seventh. He was missing his spots and the Mets had some great at-bats. Wright owns a 1.005 OPS against lefties in his career and Kershaw was obviously tiring at 113 pitches. Wright already had a 12-pitch at-bat vs. Kershaw in the first inning. Pulling him was the right call in that spot.
If you wanted to nitpick about anything, it might be the choice of using Baez over someone else. It's unlikely that we would have seen Kenley Jansen that early, but you can't get much more high-leverage than that situation. Chris Hatcher was another possibility. Still, Wright didn't sound thrilled to see Baez, a pitcher he had never seen before.
From Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News:
"I think normally you'd be pleased to get Kershaw out of the game," Wright said. "Then you look up and the next guy is throwing 100. When you get ahead 2-0 with the bases loaded, with a guy who throws extremely hard, you can get your foot down and get ready for that fastball."
After last night, the focus will again fall on Kershaw's postseason track record, but he actually pitched a heck of a ballgame until the end. Unfortunately for him and the Dodgers, Jacob deGrom was just the better pitcher on this night.

Don't Get Caught in Distractions
Men of Vision
1 August 2015
Opening Prayer
Introduction: You know Pastor has been preaching about WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? He has talked about MIND MONSTERS. So bottom line everything that he has been preaching in my opinion is distraction to take you away from God's Word. I have been dealing with some family and work problems, which have put my stress factor in over drive. I have not been into the WORD as much as I need to be to have HIM resolve my problems. WHY? Because, I have been distracted with other things and Satan is trying to get into my head and heart. Have you or are you being distracted from learning or getting closer to our Lord or getting into His Word?
Introduction to Lesson:
The story was all over the news: A businessman, after withdrawing $100,000 at the bank, stopped at a store and placed his briefcase full of money beside him on the checkout counter. A man standing next to him engaged him for a few seconds in a conversation while another man walked up, grabbed the briefcase and disappeared. When the businessman turned around, his money was gone. He panicked. The crime was caught on the store's surveillance camera and serves as a warning that a few seconds of distraction is enough for you to lose your most valuable possessions.
One of our enemy's tactics is distractions.
He tries to attract and divert our attention, confuse our mind, sidetrack our steps and draw us away from our God-given focus. So often we don't recognize what's happening until much later when we find ourselves way off course.
Recognizing distractions is vital in serving God and fulfilling our calling as His witnesses.
Nehemiah had left his prestigious job as the king's cupbearer, along with the comfort and luxury of life in the palace, to travel to Jerusalem to rebuild its destroyed walls. He rallied and inspired the returned exiles for the task, but soon he ran into opposition from the enemies of the Jews and their undercover collaborators. They requested an urgent meeting with him. They spread lies about his faithfulness to the king. They circulated rumors of threats on his life, and they even hired a prophet to deliver a false message to get him to stop the work and go into hiding.
Thankfully, Nehemiah recognized what all these things really were: distractions from completing the work God had asked him to do. He responded: "I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down. Why should the work cease while I leave it and go down to you? … Should such a man as I flee? And who is there such as I who would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in!" (Nehemiah 6:3, 11)
Jesus, too, immediately recognized that the enemy was trying to use his loving disciple to try to sidetrack Him from going to Jerusalem so He may die at the cross for our sins. Peter had said to Him, "Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!" (Matthew 16:22)
Jesus replied, "Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men" (Matthew 16:23).
What about us? Do we recognize distractions as being distractions,
especially when they are very good things? For example, once a man wanted to look up an event from early Christianity, so a son brought his dad an 800-page Church history book from the library. The man could have gone to the index and straight to the page that answered my question, but he didn't. The book and the pictures were too intriguing to put down, and instead of spending 10 minutes, the man found himself spending all afternoon reading about interesting things that had nothing to do with what he needed to know.
We are surrounded by hundreds of good causes, wholesome activities, wonderful opportunities, as well as a host of electronics and the world of internet, which all compete for our attention and the precious time we have to reach this world for Christ. If we don't recognize distractions, we become victims of good things.
Yes, as human beings we need times of rest, to unwind from our stressful work and have special family times and activities. However, we must be careful that the good things don't take over our focus and the time we once used to spend in prayer and in God's Word.
Life moves very fast. We have only a short time before it's over. Let us not get caught in the web of seeking the things on earth.
What then must we do to keep our focus?
We must be aware that distractions, especially the ones that make us happy, entertain us and fill our days with excitement, are easy for us to accept, but saying no to temptations and yes to inconveniences and to the way of the cross is what we have to deliberately choose.
Therefore, we need to be alert and discerning and honestly judge our hearts to see where we are with our focus regarding the purpose of God for our life here on earth.
We also need to realize that we are not strong enough to finish this race on our own. We daily need to ask God for wisdom, discernment and grace to stay on course. Then at the end of our life, we will be able to say, along with the apostle Paul, "But none of these things move me," (Acts 20:24) and "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith" (2 Timothy 4:7).

Once you are accepted for a WF or BoA secured card, how long did it take for the card to show up? How long it takes to show up will determine how much I can open the card with.
WF was pretty quick for me once they had all the funds verified. In total the entire process from app to receipt of card was about 2-3 weeks. Cap1 was forever. (I actually apped for WF after Cap1 but got WF first and that was after I had to jump through hoops with WF to setup and clear funds for a savings account).
You guys like WF over BoA huh? Any particular reason?
I haven't dealt with WF but bofa's secured card appears to be awesome if not one of the best out there as far as secured cards. They were able to convert my regular secured card to a 1-2-3 rewards secured card with no trouble of just owning the card for 4 months. Plus a lot of success stories of unsecuring after 12 months or even before that of owning it.
However, I have read several posts of people disliking WF and not being able to convert their secured cards to unsecured except maybe a handful.
Thanks, I think I'm gonna try for a BoA Secured card. Hopefully I won't have any issue still having a med CA on my reports. Darn hospital physician bill for a procedure that never happened. So not paying extra for nothing, expecially when it won't come off the reports.
