Upcoming Events: Psychology
Thu 7/28
Race and Relationships in Health Care: Basic Psychology I Didn't Learn in Med School (But Wish I Had)Date: Thu, July 28, 2016
Time: 5:15 PM
Denise L. Davis, M.D., Clinical Professor of Medicine, University of California San Francisco; Fellow, American Academy on Communication in Healthcare
In 2014, health professions students around the country staged White Coats for Black Lives protests, which focused the attention of UCSF and other medical schools on issues of race, power and health. Dr. Davis will discuss the art and science of improving doctor-patient communication that could change the culture of medicine, helping doctors to move beyond "White Coat Silence" on race and power.
Tue 8/23
Music As an Alternative to AdversityDate: Tue, August 23, 2016
Time: 5:15 PM
Part of our special series Big Solutions for Big Problems
Peter Lewis, Musician; Composer; Songwriter; Guitarist; Founding Member, the San Francisco Rock Band Moby Grape
Arwen Lewis, Musician; Composer; Songwriter; Guitarist; Primary Artist and Lead Singer, Recent Album of Classic Moby Grape Compositions
Peter is Arwen's father, and together they travel and perform acoustic shows featuring original music written by both of them as well as classic Moby Grape compositions.
Peter and Arwen Lewis will discuss how music, from the perspectives of both the composer and the audience, has been used throughout history to "escape" from adversity. They will talk about the healing components of music and how music allows people to connect with each other. Peter and Arwen will also perform songs composed by Alexander "Skip" Spence and songs written by Peter and Arwen. The presentation will include their own personal experiences with the healing components of music; they also will talk about the process of composing and how this takes the composer into an alternative reality.
There will be live music during their presentation, including wonderful Moby Grape songs, and this presentation will be a treat not to be missed.

âWith Great Power: The Stan Lee Story,â a documentary about the life of Stan Lee, debuted July 24 at Comic-Con International in San Diego, followed by a star-studded panel including The Man himself. For two hours, convention-goers got a look into the mind that in many ways helped to create a need for Comic-Con in the first place.
Before the movie began, Lee provided a brief introduction. âI want to say thank you very much,â he said. âI have not seen this, it's very embarrassing because it makes me seem much bigger and important than I really am. I have a reputation for not being the most modest guy in the world, and now it'll be twice as bad.â
After the movie, the panel, moderated by movie producer Michael Uslan, heaped praise, told stories, and picked apart the mind of its star, while Lee hammed it up, alternately saying he was not worthy of such praise, or demanding it. The panel included former DC Comics publisher Paul Levitz; movie producer Tom DeSanto; Mark Evanier, writer, Jack Kirby's former assistant, and as Uslan said, âmoderator of most of the panels at Comic-Con;â and the creators of the documentary, Nikki Frakes, Will Hess, and Terry Dougas.
The panel began with Uslan asking Lee what he thought his greatest legacy was.
âI never figured I'd be asked tough questions like that,â Lee joked. âMaybe my cameos, because they show such a artistic part of me, how I have such great variety. I'm getting tearful. I don't know what my best legacy is for goodness sake!â
âThen we'll let everyone here tell you,â Uslan said, before asking him Lee if he knew he was creating a new American mythology when he was writing.
âNo! I don't even know, and I'm embarrassed to say this, I don't even know what the Golden Age and the Silver Age is. Everyone has a different definition. To me, the Golden Age is when you were getting paid well. What was the question again?â
When it was repeated, Lee responded with a resounding âHell no! We were just doing our job and trying to pay the rent and we weren't thinking about what someone 30 years from now was thinking about that."
The filmmakers were then asked what surprised them the most in the making of the documentary. âI'm constantly amazed by the generational ties,â Hess said. âIt doesn't matter if it's a younger crowd like today, or people who've been reading his stuff for four decades, it's a variety of ages in the room and they've all been touched by Stan. To have that impact on people over all these years as an artist is pretty amazing.â
At that point, Stan felt the need to explain a hearing aid device that he was using. His hearing is not so bad that he needs a full time device, but it helps to keep him from missing the key words in sentences. âI only like when people are saying good things about me,â he joked, prompting Evanier and DeSanto to get up from their chairs and make a half-turn towards the exit.
Levitz was then asked what about Stan has affected him the most. âIt's not a secret, I've said this in the forwards of my work at DC, I think that Stan's story structure was the core source material I pulled my stuff with as a writer,â he said. âThat body of work is what I studied to figure out how to do the superhero groups. Particularly when you look at the work in 'Fantastic Four' from issue 40-60, there's no richer period in comics.â He added that when Jenette Kahn came to DC Comics in the 1970s and wanted to know what were the comics she should be reading to understand the business, he handed her Lee's material.
To the same question, Evanier explained how he first met Lee in 1970, but he knew Lee since âFantastic Fourâ #3. âWhen I met him the first time, I felt like I knew him forever. What I got out of Stan was that I learned it was possible for a writer to communicate to a reader. We all feel possessive about Stan. We feel like he's our buddy. You just love the guy, and you always did if you read his comics and fell in love with his characters. He talks about in his stories how it's possible for a superhero to make a difference, but it's possible for a writer to make a difference. Stan has left a legacy of people who have been inspired.â
âAnd we don't even like each other!â Lee joked, before recounting the letter from a 13-year-old Evanier he reprinted in a Soapbox column explaining the various levels of a Marvel fan.
âBeing a kid of the '70s and '80s, there was never a time when there wasn't Stan Lee,â recalled DeSanto. âI had Stan Lee pajamas when I was three. Your voiceâ'excelsior' and 'hey there true believer'âwas something I grew up on. You were a moral barometer for me. In a weird way, your thumb print in this room and on this planet is very apparent. You made me want to be a better person. For that I thank you.â
Lee was then asked who was the most talented person he worked with, to which he instantly replied, âJack Kirby! And not just because Evanier is in the room!â
Lee continued to extol Kirby's virtues. âHe really was a writer with drawings and no one wrote better with him. And every drawing he did was exciting. I don't even think Jack had to think about it, it just came natural. When Jack drew something, he started at the top of the page and worked his way down, it's like it was all in his mind and he was tracing it onto the page. Jack was absolutely the most imaginative and talented guy I've met and I've met many talented people.â

What the Critics are Saying About the OCZ ModXStream Pro Series
"The OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W tested out to be a good power supply. It produced good voltage regulation and delivers excellent efficiency.In addition, the ModXStream does its job very quietly, is 80Plus and NVIDIA SLI certified, and comes backed with OCZ's PowerSwap warranty."
--PC Perspecitve
"OCZ ModXStream Pro 600 W proved to be an outstanding mainstream 600 W power supply, surprising us at all and every level. Being an inexpensive unit that has only the standard 80 Plus certification, we were expecting it to achieve efficiency around 82-83% across the board, but in fact it could maintain efficiency between 83.5% and 86.6% when we pulled up to 480 W from it (81.9% at 600 W), almost granting it 80 Plus Bronze certification."
--Hardware Secrets
"The OCZ ModXStream Pro has the performance and quality to delivery a consistent demand of power according to the load requirements. As a starter PSU a 500W model is more than enough...This is one of be st priced modular and 80 efficient PSU's out, a definite choice in my books."

Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
Most factory built computers come with very poor quality power supplies rated at 250 to 350 watts. If you add any hardware or improve the GPU card it will not have enough power to operate the system properly. In addition these weak factory power supplies tend to fail in the 2 to 3 year range. This 600 watt power supply is an ideal size to use to replace the old one.
I like the fact that it is an 80 Plus Certified Power supply that has a high power efficiency of up to 86% with any load between 20% to 100%. This saves you energy and the unit runs cooler as power is not wasted. It is also a modular design which means you need only use the cables you need and by lowering the number of cables you reduce the clutter, improve cooling and make the assembly look more professional. It comes with a nice carrying bag for the modular cables so you can save them for future expansion.
The unit comes with a 135 mm silent cooling fan and a lot of connection cables for internal accessories that you will need for a full blown computer build. The motherboard connector is designed for 20 or 24 pin power connectors so it works with every motherboard I can think of. It is SLI certified and CrossFire ready for use with multiple GPU cards.Read more ›
I've docked it a star for the 8 pin to the motherboard for being just a tad to short, I have to run it in the front until I get a braided extension from here. I have the XION Predator Mid Tower Gaming Case and it has excellent wire management with lots of slots & holes for you to hide and sneak cables around. With that said that is the only con for me.
This is an excellent power supply and you can't do much better then OCZ! I would recommend and definitely buy another on my next build.
I bought this to support my recently bought ATI HD 5770 graphics card. There were a lot of power supplies on amazon, and I wanted to get a quality one at a good price. I was skeptical of buying this at first because it only had 6 reviews, but I'm glad I did. The wires are covered in a nice mesh so it is a bit more organized and looks better in your case. It is a modular power supply which means that the cables coming out of it are the necessary ones, and any extra cables come on the side and you can connect them only if you need them. This means less wires and more room in your system. I don't know why this isn't in the item description, but it is 80+ certified which means it is energy efficient. It is also very sturdy. I am not an expert in power supplies, but this really feels like a quality item.
If you need a 500W power supply, get this one. It also comes with a 3 year warranty.
One thing to note is that this unit is about 1/2 inch longer than the stock unit. This made installation a little tight since there is less room between the installed DVD player and the back of the new PSU. Also, because new PSU is a little longer, the clip that holds the old PSU in the case does not engage at all. But, this is not a problem because the 4 screws that mount the PSU to the back of the case are adequate and hold the PSU securely in place. Just something to note for others planning to do the same. I reused the screws from the original PSU, even though this PSU comes with mounting screws also. More for the parts bin.
The PSU also comes with one modular 4-pin molex cable that I used for the USB 3.0 mini-PCIe card that I purchased. So there was no need for me to buy an adapter. Good thing. I ended up only using 2 of the modular cables that came with the PSU. One for the DVD and existing HD, the other for the new USB 3.0 card. The new video card required no extra power. There are plenty of cables left for future expansion.
There are two CPU cables coming out of the PSU, I used the 4 pin one as needed by my motherboard, the other is wrapped away securely (the CPU power supplies are not modular). The length is more than adequate to reach the motherboard in the HP P7-1287c.
I was very impressed with the build quality, supplied cables, and the performance of this unit so far.Read more ›

New Column!
One thing about this column you might want to consider editing -- the phrase "and now police officers."
I don't want to rain on the funny parade, but police officers have been murdered with easily accessible guns for a long time.
It's nothing new, and acting like the event in Dallas is a first is one of the reasons some police officers are angry as fuck. They go to work with a target on their back and they sometimes don't come home.
I'm all for extensive gun safety measures. Restrictions on high capacity killing machines and accessories. And laws that hold trigger happy (and fist happy) law enforcement officers accountable.
That phrase though... gasoline on a fire at the wrong time, dudes and dudettes. Wrong time.

I take comfort in wishing birthday greetings to my deceased loved ones. Tell them I am missing them.
I did have someone I didn't know comment on one birthday greeting to my beloved cousin Gaylan that he had died. We ended up sharing stories about him, and it was lovely.
I recommend the same approach to you. Don't get mad and complain here. Tell the person who you THINK made a mistake.
You might end up with a soft moment of comfort shared.

Bernie Sanders Should Have Called It Quits While the Going Was Good
I was stunned to read this op-ed. Bernie is in a position of weakness after that strong showing? the basic premise doesn't even make sense to me.
I'm surprised that no one is mentioning a strong component of Trump's support -- not the racist element, the economic element. Both Rs and Ds hopefully have gotten quite the wake-up call about economic and legal policies that protect corporations and the wealthy at the expense of the middle and lower class. I can't believe that they aren't paying attention to this swell of rage.
By the way, I have been for Hillary since the beginning. She is liberal enough for me, I'm not a child who has to have my own way and only my own way -- I understand that compromise is the bedrock of democracy, and I haven't fallen for the poison that the Rs have been pumping out about her for decades. Is she perfect? No. Is she high-handed and ambitious? Yes. And?
I have also been rooting for Bernie to go the distance -- less so when he started getting ugly, but before that, he was stellar -- what he has been saying is crucially important.
To say that the 10 million plus votes he got have been "weakened" because he didn't win California is an odd conclusion to make. Add that to the millions that Trump got (less the purely racist element) -- both the Rs and Ds have been given notice.

Almost All Aliens offers a unique reinterpretation of immigration in the history of the United States. Leaving behind the traditional melting-pot model of immigrant assimilation, Paul Spickard puts forward a fresh and provocative reconceptualization that embraces the multicultural reality of immigration that has always existed in the United States. His astute study illustrates the complex relationship between ethnic identity and race, slavery, and colonial expansion. Examining not only the lives of those who crossed the Atlantic, but also those who crossed the Pacific, the Caribbean, and the North American Borderlands, Almost All Aliens provides a distinct, inclusive analysis of immigration and identity in the United States from 1600 until the present.

Print HTML Things I learned over the weekend: 1) There is a magazine called Yacht Investor, which people read on trains out of Waterloo. 2) The sort of person who Invests in Yachts is also the target market for something called a Seabreacher, which has just launched "a new Orca model". Here is a video of the new Orca model: The seabreacher costs "around $100,000", and singlehandedly makes the argument for progressive taxation.

Retail sales continue to show modest gains
The theme of flattish sequential retail gains remained intact from May to June, according to data released today by the National Retail Federation (NRF) and the United States Department of Commerce.
Commerce reported that June retail sales at $439.9 billion were up 0.2 percent over May and up 4.3 percent compared to June 2013, and total retail sales from April through June are up 4.5 percent annually. And excluding automobiles, Commerce said total retail and food services in June were up 0.4 percent over May at $351.9 billion and up 3.7 percent compared to June 2013. Commerce added that the April to May 2014 percent change was revised from +0.3 percent to +0.5 percent.
The NRF said that June retail sales, which exclude automobiles, gas stations, and restaurants, were flat on a seasonally-adjusted and sequential basis for the second straight month in May, and saw a 3.0 percent unadjusted annual increase.

I know. I'm now starting another story. I can't help it if these damn plot bunnies keep giving me ideas. Mostly I am going to try and cover the Time War that the eighth Doctor was in. However here is the twist, Rose will be by his side. So I do hope that you all will bear with me on this. So here we go..... Oh before I start with the beginnings of these adventures, I am opening up and inviting any one who wants to help create ideas or even give me a battle ideas. So what I am saying is: "IF YOU WANT TO HELP SHAPE THIS STORY YOUARE MOST WELCOME TO DO SO."
Disclaimer: I Don't Own Doctor Who. Only a few Time War Battles.
In the sky, twin suns were beginning to fall below the horizon, turning the sky a dark orange color. A little boy of 8 years of age was running down a hill covered in red grass and a few silver trees. The boy ran as fast as he could to get away, but they were still coming. The little boy turned his head to see how close the group was.
"Oh Theta. Why you running away?" came a voice from the boy with blond hair.
"Yeah Theta. Thought we were all friends." came another voice.
The little brown haired boy didn't notice that there was a rock infront of him. As he turned his head forwards again he saw it, but it was too late. The little boy, called Theta, tripped and landed in the sea of red grass. Before he could get up, Theta was kicked in the ribs.
"That's for running away, half blood." said a boy with black hair.
"Koschei. I thought we were friends?" Theta said, as he held his left hand to his right side ribs.
"Oh we were Theta. But then guess who hasn't looked into the Untempered Schism yet." Koschei kicked Theta again, only this time in the left shoulder.
As Theta fell backwards from the kicked, a little voice came from up the dirt path.
"Thewa!!!!!!!" cried a little red-headed girl of about 4 years, as she ran down towards the group of boys. When she reached the boys, she saw Theta laying on the ground curled up in the fetal position. She spun around and glared at the older boys.
"Who dis that to Thewa???" she screamed at the boys.
"What's it to you? Shouldn't you be in the nursery playing with you blocks." said Koschei as he made a fist with his right hand.
"Leave. Her. Alone" coughed Theta as he started to get up off the ground. However, his body had other ideas and his legs gave way and he fell to his knees.
"Thewa!" the little girl ran to Theta's side to try and help him up. As she touched his injured shoulder, Theta flinched. The little girl puffed her chest, turned around and locked her hazel eyes with Koschei's.
"You hurt Thewa. I hates you."
Koschei laughed. "Oh I see. You are infatuated with the half breed. Sorry Shoshana, but you're still promised to me. Now get over here." The last sentence he shouted at her.
"NO!" shouted Shoshana. "You are mean. Ever since you looks in the Schism. I swears never to be your pawtner." Her hazel eyes never leaving Koschei's stare.
Koschei blinked and shrugged his shoulders. "Eh. Suit yourself. Besides no Time Lady would ever want to be the half breed's partner. Come on guys, lets go back."
The group of boys began their walk back up the dirt path that led to the city.
"You shouldn't have done that." said Theta as Shoshana turned to see if he was alright. "Koschei is right though. No Time Lady would ever be my partner." Theta got up off the ground and walked over to one of the silver trees.
Shoshana watched him as he sat down and leaned his back against the tree. As she began to walk towards him the wind blew and the leaves sang. When she made it to the tree she sat down next to him and leaned her head on his shoulder. Theta turned his head to see her pick up his hand and thread their fingers together.
"I will be your pawtner then." She looked up and stared at Theta's blue eyes. "I'll be wiff you. Forever."
Rose gasped as she woke up from her dream. Looking around her pink room her eyes settled on her alarm clock. 7:30am.
"Rose!! You better wake up sweetie, or you will be late for work." shouted her mother.
"Great. Just great." whispered Rose. She ran about her room pulling her clothes for work out of the closet before getting dressed.
"Rose Marion Tyler!! Did you hear me?"
"Yes Mum I did. I'm just getting dressed." Rose quickly buttoned up her blouse and left her bedroom.
As she shoved a piece of toast in her mouth Rose waved bye to her mum and ran out the door.
Rose walked through the doors that led to her work. Another employee say her come in.
"You best be careful Rose. The manager isn't in a good mood today." said Renee who happened to work in the cosmetics department.
"Thanks." replied Rose as she made her way to the department that she works in. After clocking in and putting on a name tag, Rose walked over to the Men's department. As she made her way to one of the table's to put the stack of sweaters she bumped into something.
"Oh Sorry." said Rose as she got down and began to pick up the sweaters.
"Don't worry about that. Happens to me all the time." came a cheery voice from above.
As Rose looked up, she saw a Victorian coat with frills. She picked up the last of the sweater and stood up. When she looked at the man's face to apologize, her eyes locked with the man's steel blue ones. Out of the corner of her eyes she was that he had curly brown hair that fell to his shoulders.
The man felt something click inside his head as he kept his eyes locked with her hazel ones. Giving Rose a confused look the man asked, "Do I know you?"
I know. I know. But I had to make something to get these two people together before I toss them into the fire of the Time War.
Please tell me what you think?????

Sean Simmons ft. Mel Buckley - Jump On It
Posted 7 years ago
Tags: Sean Simmons , Club
Vinny Vendito
Like it or not, the term "swag" is here to stay. Yet another example of its omnipresence can be found on emcee Sean Simmons' new club anthem, Jump On It. On the new single from his recently-released Swaggerriffic album, the West Palm Beach funkateer brings a fresh vibe to the table over lush vocals from singer Mel Buckley. Cookin' up soul with an addictive up-tempo bassline, producer Vinny Vendito does his part by making sure that all the apple bottoms get moving in the club. With experience opening for Lil' Wayne, Rick Ross, and T-Pain, it is clear that the Swaggerriffic Simmons has scribbled down some notes and is ready to join the elite group of major players.

Scottsdale Charros donate $250K to new museum
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — There was the sound of hooves on the streets of Scottsdale Wednesday.
Members of the Scottsdale Charros arrived on horseback Wednesday to deliver a $250,000 check to the Scottsdale Museum of the West, which is under construction at Second Street and Marshall Way in Scottsdale.
The Charros raised the money through proceeds from this year's San Francisco Giants spring training games. Jim Bruner of the Charros said that usually the group donates the proceeds from the games to education.
"They felt that this was something unique and special," said Bruner, who is also on the museum's Board of Directors. "The mission and vision of the museum in Scottsdale is very much like the mission and vision of the Scottsdale Charros…to promote the city and to promote the Western heritage and culture of our community."
Museum CEO Mike Fox said the Scottsdale Museum of the West will be a real asset to the city.
"It's a 43,000-square-foot building," he said. "We have a number of different galleries within the museum for which you can always expect for there to be the very best of Western art and artifacts."
Scottsdale Mayor Jim Lane said the donation is great for the city.
"This is one of the most sought-after accomplishments in the city of Scottsdale for the past 50 years — the Scottsdale Museum of the West," Lane explained. "We're just as proud as we can be that we've gotten to this point after so much time."
The museum is expected to open by the end of the year. For more information, click here.

FORT MYERS — A couple of doors down from Club Blu, where a young man and a 14-year-old boy were killed while attending a teen party, shop owner Idis Edouard hoisted a rod above his head to gently move a girl's blue dress aside.
"The bullet was there," he said, pointing to a spot on the ceiling. "And there. It shattered that window."
ST. PETERSBURG — A group of media outlets is asking a Florida judge to make records in the Hulk Hogan sex video case public.
Hogan, a former WWE wrestler whose real name is Terry Bollea, is suing the news website Gawker for posting a video of him having sex with the then-wife of Hogan's friend. He's claiming that Gawker invaded his privacy when it posted a clip of the video that showed him having sex with Heather Clem, the then-wife of radio shock jock Bubba the Love Sponge Clem.
TAMPA — Attorney General Pam Bondi says thousands of untested rape kits are sitting in the evidence rooms of law enforcement agencies across Florida, though the exact number is anybody's guess.
During a news conference Wednesday at the Crisis Center of Tampa Bay, Bondi called for more funding in the next state budget to process the sexual assault kits.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is conducting a study on the number of untested kits and will present the findings to the Legislature in January. The state has committed over $300,000 for the study.
The photo of the dead 3-year-old Syrian boy on a Turkish beach is haunting.
It captures everything we don't want to see when we tap our phones or open our newspapers: a vicious civil war, a surge of refugees, the death of an innocent.
TRINITY — Tears still spring into Debbie Cooley-Guy's eyes when she thinks about her dream home, with its wide, sweeping porch. It overlooked a bayou filled with wading birds, a glittering blue pool and the space for not only a 12-foot Christmas tree, but a grand piano as well.
TAMPA — Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi says a settlement with oil company BP prevents going down a "black hole" of litigation.
During a news conference at the Port of Tampa on Thursday, Bondi announced the settlement terms. Florida is receiving $3.25 billion.
SEMINOLE — A woman who flew from Colorado to Florida to reconnect with an old flame turned up dead days later, and her onetime boyfriend killed himself as investigators zeroed in on him as the prime suspect, authorities said.
Charlie Enice Brooks, 36, was found dead in a canal Monday, her skull bashed in with a rock, said Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri.
A day earlier, surveillance video at Tampa International Airport showed her hugging and then holding hands with Joseph Pope at an airport terminal.
CLEARWATER — When 10-year-old Annika Emmert patted Winter the dolphin's smooth back at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium on Thursday, she thought that was the best part of her morning.
She was wrong.
Cozi Zuehlsdorff, the actress who starred with Winter in the "Dolphin Tale" movies, set a cooler next to Annika. The girl opened it, thinking it was dolphin food.
"I was really surprised," said Annika, whose eyes welled with tears when she saw what was inside. "I was like, that doesn't look like fish."
ORLANDO — King Kong first appeared on screens in New York City in 1933, but next summer, he'll be in Florida , headlining a new thrill ride at Universal Orlando.
"Skull Island: Reign of Kong" will open in the summer of 2016 at Islands of Adventure. Universal executives announced this week that guests participating in the "intense adventure" will board expedition trucks and forge through jungles, temple ruins and past prehistoric beasts before they come face to face with the oversized ape.
ST. PETERSBURG — The moments before 12-year-old Kevin Pimentel shot his two brothers were routine — the stuff that school nights are made of across America.
Just after 6 p.m. March 25, Kevin removed a box of fish sticks from the fridge and asked his 16-year-old brother Trevor to help him make dinner, according to details released Thursday by the Pasco County Sheriff's Office.
The boys were home alone with their 6-year-old brother; their mother was at one of her two jobs. Their 18-year-old half-brother also lived in the home, but he wasn't there.
PALMETTO — When a horrific boom ripped Cristian Carlos out of a deep sleep early Wednesday, he wasn't sure what to think.
"It was like a big explosion," he said. "It moved the whole trailer."
He ran outside, screaming, and saw the unthinkable: An SUV had plowed into the family's storage shed, killing Carlos' brother and his pregnant girlfriend. The couple had been using the shed outside the mobile home as a makeshift bedroom, sleeping inside on a mattress and hoping to save money, Carlos said.

If you want to camp at Cedar Hill State Park on Friday, December 14, and/or Saturday, December 15, please go to the MeetUp and make a comment on my thread about this topic.
We MAs will work with the park to make sure our sites are close to each other (at the park's discretion, of course, but they've historically been very cooperative). As we firm up plans, we will ask campers to confirm; right now, we are just trying to get a general feel for how many sites we might need.
This solstice celebration will include an afternoon picnic. If you want to BYOB and party around the campfire after dark, we strongly suggest you plan to camp!
Thank you, my most favorite godless heathens,

SEOUL, Aug. 6 (Yonhap) -- South Korea's police chief nominee vowed Wednesday to restore public trust in the police after they came under fire for a bungled manhunt for the fugitive shipping tycoon wanted for April's ferry disaster.
Kang Sin-myeong, who currently heads the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency (SMPA), has been nominated to succeed Lee Sung-han as the National Police Agency (NPA) commissioner, officials said.
Lee offered to step down on Tuesday over a delay in identifying the body of Yoo Byung-eun, a 73-year-old billionaire whose family owns Sewol operator Chonghaejin Marine Co. Yoo is partly blamed for the disaster that left more than 300 people dead or missing.
"Public confidence in the police is under crisis," the nominee told reporters. "(I) will quickly reorganize the agency so that we can quickly restore the people's trust."
Earlier in the day, the seven-member National Police Commission recommended Kang as the single candidate for the post to President Park Geun-hye through the home affairs ministry, the officials said.
The president will then officially appoint the new police chief. Kang's nomination is technically subject to a parliamentary confirmation hearing, though the National Assembly cannot reject the nomination.
Kang, a graduate of the Korean National Police University, took the helm of the SMPA in 2013. Throughout his career as a police officer, Kang earned a reputation for his penetrating insight into different issues and experience in various fields.

-The Kindle Paperwhite ships in its original box and was highly nostalgic of the Kindle Touch. On opening the box, the Paperwhite is the first thing you see, wrapped in a plastic film cover. A usb cable and quick start guide are also included.
-The home button is gone, replaced by a Kindle logo. Also, the device is very slightly thinner than the Touch, but any difference is hardly noticeable.
-The bezel is noticeably smaller in width, with the screen now also sitting more flush.
-The device itself is very slick, and generally looks and feels more classy and elegant than the Touch. It has a slate-black finish, with a rubber-like material on the back to aid grip during long reading sessions (although I have housed my Kindle in a cover).
-Arguably, the biggest selling point for this new Kindle is the amazing built-in light. I can imagine that most existing Kindle owners would upgrade for this alone. Light brightness is adjusted by a slider accessed at the top of the screen.Read more ›
So I received my Kindle Paperwhite in the post this week, thank you for the quick delivery Amazon! I'm not a big fan of wordy Amazon reviews so I'll use points below so I don't bore you to death!
Things I love:
+ The build quality of the Kindle itself feels very good
+ The new Kindle menu system is nice
+ The touch screen is brilliant, very responsive (not sure how this compares to the old touch as my old Kindle is non touch)
+ The resolution of the text is noticeably improved
+ The new time to finish chapter and book feature (not needed but its fun)
Things I don't love:
- In complete darkness or low light I have a green'ish shadow\smudge from the top right of my Kindle to the middle left, I also have a brighter pinkish smudge below this green shadow
- The unevenness of the light under dark or very low light conditions in general
Things that could be improved:
- The shadows from the lights at the bottom, they don't really bother me as they don't cover too much text but I would imagine this could and should be improved on
- I don't mind the suggested books at the bottom of the main cover view page, but why don't you incorporate the 99p book of the day in to this?Read more ›
I previously Purchased the Kindle Wi-Fi, 6" E Ink Display,and I have been very happy with it.
I have had my new Kindle Paperwhite 3G for a month now, and am just overjoyed with the whole package.
I have waited to write this review, to give it a thorough workout.
And I am extremely happy with what I have found, unlike other reviewers, I have had no issues with the light
in fact I cant praise it enough, it is a variable light and works well in all lighting conditions.
The touch screen is very responsive, and as far as I can tell, is very accurate.
and the Kindle itself has all the features you would expect and more.
It was very easy to set up following the on screen instructions,and I was up and running within minuets.
I put the kindle on charge as soon as I had unpacked it, and it took just under 4 hours, to indicate a full charge.
I have used my Kindle constantly since then, for many hours a day. (I enjoy reading)
And looks like I still have plenty of charge left, so the 8 weeks battery life claim looks very possible to me.
I am very happy with my New Kindle, and would recommend it to anyone thinking about buying an e-reader.
I cannot recommend any other readers, as I have only had Kindles both of witch, I have been more than happy with.
As an addition to his review, I must add, that my wife took over my old Kindle. (It has it's 1st birthday in 14 days so not that old)
But she has shown an unhealthy interest in the new one, so it looks like I will have to get her an upgrade,
and pass on hers to my eldest Daughter. (I have 3 daughters and a son so this may get a bit expensive)
But if it encourages reading in the youth has to be a good thing.

Get a look at the NSFW cane that Axl Rose has been using to get around while in Europe.
As the lead singer of world conquering hard rockers Guns n' Roses, W. Axl Rose was arguably the most recognizable and talked-about rock star on the planet by the close of the 1980s. Then his fame turned to notoriety, as the ensuing decade saw him virtually disappear from public view, even as his former bandmates were dropped by the way-side, one by one, before finally reemerging in the new millennium as the de facto face of Gn'R. Born William Bruce Rose, Jr., in Lafayette, Indiana, but raised with the surname Bailey after his biological father vanished and his mother remarried, Rose fled an oppressive fundamentalist childhood for the streets of Los Angeles in 1982, and adopted the Axl handle after playing with a band by that name. One of his other fledgling bands during this time was named Hollywood Rose and reunited the aspiring singer with child-hood friend and rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin,' before they both cast their lot with lead guitarist Tracii Guns, first as L.A. Guns and then, by 1985, as Guns n' Roses. Within a few months, Tracii had been replaced by Saul 'Slash' Hudson and GnR's classic lineup became complete with the addition of bassist Duff McKagan and drummer Steven Adler. Their dizzying climb from the Hollywood gutters to the top of rock's Olympus has of course been exhaustively documented elsewhere, so for Rose, in particular, the period surrounding the release of 1987's watershed 'Appetite for Destruction,' 1988's controversial 'Gn'R Lies' and 1991's twin 'Your Illusion' double albums, was marked by in-creasing tension with band mates (mostly related to drug use) and a pair of tabloid romantic relationships with Erin Everly (daughter of '50s rock icon, Don) and super model Stephanie Seymour — none of which ended well. Nor did Rose's once ironclad friend-ship with the rest of Guns n' Roses, all of whom were systematically dispensed with during the 1990s, while Axl himself became something of a recluse, allegedly recording and re-recording new material for an album that was, at first, jokingly named 'Chinese Democracy,' because it would probably never arrive. But said album was finally completed in 2008, by which time Rose had been touring again, off and on, with a completely revamped lineup of Guns n' Roses (as small glimpses into his secretive personal life revealed a peculiar penchant for psychoanalysis and past-life regression therapy). And when the original Guns n' Roses was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012, the ever-eccentric Axl declined to appear, thanking his fans by letter instead.
Get a look at the NSFW cane that Axl Rose has been using to get around while in Europe.
Axl Rose spoke about his relationship with AC/DC's Angus Young and revealed the reunited Guns N' Roses lineup is working on new material.
Now that Axl Rose has travelled around Europe with AC/DC, it's time to finally perform those postponed U.S. concerts.
AC/DC's Angus Young and Cliff Williams commended Axl Rose's performances with the band so far in a new interview.
For the first time since breaking his foot, Axl Rose has stood up and walked onstage, still confined to a boot cast.
AC/DC shows always draw a lot of attention, but their current tour is even more under the microscope as Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose fills in on vocals.

As the interviews continue to come in, Axl Rose has stated he'd like to remain stay in AC/DC after the two tours conclude + gave an update on his broken foot.

I tried to order your product this evening. Wanted 12 months of Pro. PayPal wouldn't let the transaction go through for some reason. I tried it twice and then called them. They said it was a "security issue" and that their system was automatically blocking the payment and wouldn't allow it for at least another 24 hours.
Just thought you should know. I was able to confirm that it wasn't something on my end. The PayPal rep looked over my account and said it had to be on your end. Might want to call them.
While I have you, one question: I'm running BP and BB without group integration. Your plug-in supports bb in the configuration, right?
Thanx again.
