text: Credits to Flashstorm for doing this. Also read This for some help with being more concise. ================ Welcome to the Conciseness section of the Contributions & Correction forum, where the main objective is to make written analyses as short and concise as possible. As such, to make the project more effective, we'd like users participating in this project to keep in accordance with the following rules: 1. The Conciseness forum is NOT for posting new sets or revamping old ones. Please make sure that new sets and updates are posted in the Articles and Analyses subforum under the respective tier. This board is strictly used for making already written analyses more consise only. Analyses that have yet to be written are expected to be concise (without necessitating the use of this board) when ready to be uploaded to the site. 2. Please make sure to read the Conciseness Guidelines thread on this board. There is nothing more frustrating than having to deal with threads that clearly did not put an effort in keeping accordance with our set objective. Please note that there is a difference between putting effort into fulfilling the objective as best as possible and completrly disregarding it. The Conciseness Guidelines thread provides instructions on how updated analyses should be written. Note that if threads obviously do not follow the established objectives, the user responsible for the thread will be infracted. 3. Please make sure to proofread analyses before asking for them to be added on-site. There is nothing more annoying that having to read through an analysis that has poor spelling and grammar. As such, we ask users to proofread their analyses before submitting them for a moderator's approval. You can either do this yourself or ask another user to assist you. 4. To reserve an analysis, please check the Concise Project: Analysis Reservation Thread for more information. Please do not post asking to reserve an analysis here or you will be infracted. Also, please refrain from reserving anything from other Projects (i.e. those under Updates that are being worked on). PLEASE REFRAIN FROM RESERVING UU | LC POKEMON AT THIS TIME! 5. This is a team effort. Please don't feel afraid to participate. You have a different set of goals. Aside from grammar checks, if necessary, your job is to either help with the trimming (or simply say that it looks fine) by suggesting that a sentence needs removal. Now, if you think that a vital sentence or two was necessary, then please do something like this: This is a team effort folks, so don't feel shy if you think something is necessary. 6. Above all, please follow all of the Smogon rules. Please remember that this board is still a part of the Smogon forums and that you are expected to follow all of the general community rules. This is easily the most important rule, so please make sure to follow it! If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact either Colonel_M or Flashstorm1. You may also ask for the clarification of rules or ask another rule to be added in this thread as well. Thank you for your cooperation with this project!

I'm enjoying the series. I like the concept, and some of the individual episodes are very good. The relationship between the Grimm and Monroe is the most enjoyable character arc so far. Now we're 11 episodes in, I'd like more of the back story to be revealed, and for Nick to grow into his Grimm role - his aunt seemed to have a lot of power as well as the knowledge. While he is building his knowledge through her books and Monroe's expertise, I think he would also develop more Grimm-like power or strength or abilities.

Marion County May Put Jail Up For Sale
Published January 29th, 2014
Loading Video...
The Board of Marion County Commissioners is exploring the idea of selling Marion County's jail property to a private prison company.
Vice chair Stan Mcclain says the idea is to sell the land, then lease the property and possibly buy it back in the future. The county would get a chunk of money upfront if they decide to sell the jail.
Mcclain says the board will only approve this "idea" if it's beneficial to the county, community, and the sheriff's budget.
According to Mcclain, the Marion County Sheriff's Office will still run the jail no matter who owns the property.

I noticed today that one of my shocks is bent and another looks like its blown out or something.
My LHS has only Traxxas stuff.
Do any of there shocks match the Tornado BB shocks?
awesome thanks.
What I need is the breakdown of parts... Not sure what all the names are for them. ie... Grub screws and such. If you could that would be great.

Redcat Racing guys are great. They contacted me today to let me know that I can get a credit to make up for the Items I have to replace.
That is great customer service!
Just placed my order for parts... cant wait to get it going again.
West Columbia South Carolina
Ok here is a repost... where is the best place to buy parts? Also what part are interchangeable with other brands?
This is what happens when you misjudge the distance of a curb at top speed! [&o]
Changed out my receiver and control... Fixed the glitch!
Mine will go about 200 yards at least and have not had a problem other than my driving.

The Two Cultures gap revisited47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11966View Description Hide Description
I read C. P. Snow's T h e T w o C u l t u r e s in 1960, when I was teaching English at Wellesley, and it made such an impression on me that I spent the next two years trying to redress the imbalance of mind deriving from a purely literary education, by taking a year of undergraduate science and then teaching for a year at a technical college. I wrote a book on the subject, called S c i e n c e a n d t h e S h a b b y C u r a t e o f P o e t r y, published in 1964. But in the fifteen years since then I have given only sporadic attention to the issue, though I have never forgotten it. I've been defeated by the problem of getting past the pious platitudes—''it's a crying shame that the two cultures are so divided''—to arguments that are intellectually or any other way substantial. But now it seems to me that certain external circumstances have change enough that that problem can be resolved; not the problem of the very different experience of men in the humanities from men in the sciences, but the problem of communication between them. What follows are the 1979 reflections on the split, various in character but partly joyful, of a long‐term desponder.
A look at the 1979 AAPT Winter Meeting47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11967View Description Hide Description
From January 29 to February 1, 1979, the American Association of Physics Teachers held its annual Winter Meeting in New York City. In this report we describe the results of an illuminative study which investigated the activities and perceptions of those who participated in that meeting. Through interviews, observations, and an assortment of questionnaires, we gathered information about many different aspects of the meeting and from many different points of view. We describe in the report who the participants were and what they wanted from this meeting. We then evaluate the various activities of the meeting in term of their effectiveness in meeting the participants' wants. Finally, we point out and discuss a few major issues that emerged in the course of our study and were sources of conflict for many of those attending.
Dante and the 3‐sphere47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11968View Description Hide Description
We describe three different methods of visualizing the ''closed universe'' S 3, and point out language in Dante's D i v i n e C o m e d y which suggests that he visualized his universe in the same ways, making his universe topologically S 3.
Another look through the Heisenberg microscope47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11969View Description Hide Description
Conditions are examined for measurement of the position and momentum of a particle by Compton scattering from various directions. In addition to the usual uncertainty relation that emerges from this analysis, it is shown that, for a given initial frequency, there is generally a critical angular aperture at which the error in position is a minimum.
Simulation of quantum‐mechanical measurements with programmable pocket calculators47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11970View Description Hide Description
A method for the illustration of the statistical nature of measurements in quantum physics by means of simulation with pocket calculators is described. The application to examples like the double‐slit experiment, Mott scattering, and the demonstration of the uncertainty relation is discussed.
Single beam holography47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11971View Description Hide Description
A simple technique of holography, using only one source beam is introduced. Impressive curved holograms and rainbow holograms can be fabricated on an unisolated laboratory table with this technique.
Additivity, rapidity, relativity47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11972View Description Hide Description
A simple and deep standard mathematical theorem asserts the existence, for any one‐parameter differentiable group, of an additive parameter, such as the angle for rotations and the rapidity parameter for Lorentz transformations. The importance of this theorem for the applications of group theory in physics is stressed, and an elementary proof is given. The theorem then is applied to the construction from first principles of possible relativity groups.
Detonation in miniature47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11973View Description Hide Description
A mathematical analog for one‐dimensional compressible flow in a chemically reacting fluid is constructed and used as a vehicle for a simplified introduction to such flows, with particular application to detonations. The presentation includes a concise self‐contained introduction to the elements of nonreactive compressible flow.
Time variation of a vector attached to a moving frame47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11974View Description Hide Description
It is well known that for any moving rigid frame of reference there exists at each instant an angular‐velocity vector ω such that the time variation of any vector q constant relative to the frame is given by (dq/d t) =ω×q. With the use of elementary vector algebra and calculus, a rather simple proof is presented of the unique existence of ω and of the validity of the above equation in fullest generality.
Variations on the hydrogen atom: The generator coordinate method47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11975View Description Hide Description
A nonorthogonal expansion applied to the hydrogen atom is proposed as a pedagogical introduction to the ideas of the generator coordinate method. It can be discussed in any introductory course on quantum mechanics and provides for good numerical approximations at very low computational cost.
Hydrogen atom and relativistic pi‐mesic atom in N‐space dimensions47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11976View Description Hide Description
We derive in simple analytic closed form the eigenfunctions and eigenenergies for the hydrogen atom in N dimensions. A section is devoted to the specialization to one dimension. Comments are made on the relation to the harmonic oscillator, the ground‐state energy per degree of freedom, the raising and lowering operators, and the radial momentum operators. By particular changes of variables, the relativistic pi‐mesic atom is solved in the same functional form.
Symmetry and invariance of the Coulomb problem47(1979); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.11977View Description Hide Description
New canonical transformations for the Coulomb problem are introduced, and their geometrical and physical significance discussed. The existence of two invariant momemtum components are shown to be related to the two constants of the motion in a Coulomb field.

I usually feel sick to my stomach after a close loss, but the feeling wasn't there this time.
As a team, we've gained more from this loss than we ever have. We now have a real quarterback, an explosive WR that catches everything, a top-3 NFL TE, and (hopefully) an offensive package that plays to these strengths.
Singletary knows what he's doing -- he and Raye play to our offense's strengths. But will a live arm at QB, weapons in the passing game, and a solid running back, he will open things up.
I don't know how we're going to perform vs. the Colst, but I'm hopeful that we can build on what we started in Houston -- then unleash it when we get back home.

I love,love these gloves and the fact I can have them delivered to my door is just the icing on the cake. I have used 7 boxes so far and they have always been great until the one we are using now , there have been several gloves with holes in the fingers. I hope this is not a sign of poor quality in the future. I am a paraplegic and we go through a lot of gloves for myself and my caregivers And will continue to purchase from MILLES KINBALL as long as we need them. They also make good cleaning gloves for all house whole chores

Great gloves for a great price
By CatalogDiva
from Pleasant Garden, NC
These are perfect for cleaning to keep strong detergents, etc. off of your hands. I use them to shape my Christmas Tree so that the tips don't scratch my hands. I use them to remove polish from my toe nails so I don't mess up my finger nail polish. I used them as part of my Halloween Costume (Lab person). There are too many uses to list here. They are great!
Great buy
By moxienana

I bought these for my grandson who likes to help with the cooking and baking. The size fits very good [the fingers are not too long], but would prefer the gloves with no powder.

About Me Student
I use the gloves for garden and house work. I like gloves pictured. I want the powered gloves I have bought for years. Last ones I ordered weren't powdered and I have a hard time getting them on in hot weather. I have to wear 2 pair because they are so flimsy. Bring back the old gloves or tell me where they do sell them.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The Olivia/St. James piece is a pretty but posed film clip. Negligible heat rises when Tif Towers gets her tits banged by Johnny Montana.

Bahia Blanca: Woman
What goes around comes around. Don't mistreat your dog.
Advertising Agency: Savaglio\TBWA, Buenos Aires, Argentina
11 comments
I quite like these, but more because I wish this was what people got for kicking a dog. Frickin' douche bags.
Doin' it for the points
Not just any dog. But a tiny little dog that was made to jump trying to get a piece of Milk-Bone!!
If I was administering the punishment for cruelty these folks would look even worse than they do.
the only thing im getting out of this is that ugly people like to beat dogs.
This is a bit too close to an ad for battered women. I think we in advertising should be careful to not diminish the impact of social ads. Pictures of battered women create an awareness about battered women. They shouldn't create an awareness about battered dogs (no matter how cruel that is), desensitizing us slowly in the process.
sorry, but these are not smart ads. the line, what goes around comes around, refers to karma. but beaten dogs don't just attack the people who attacked or beat them (which, by definition, would be karma). they'll attack anyone once they're driven into a frenzy. they're not logical creatures. so there's a huge gap in logic. you really have to make a leap of faith to connect the dots.
| think small |
i have to agree with teenie, i would have rather liked to see someone with a shredded leg or something like this.

X2go revitalizes the old mainframe concept of applications that run on servers and not directly on the user system, known as server-based computing. The attached clients only input data and take care of desktop display, so that older PCs and thin clients can participate in this type of computing.
In the case X2go complete Linux desktop environments run on the server. A special X2go client opens the window to the environment on the attached workstation, currently available in numerous platforms, including Windows, MAC OS X, Nokia N800 and, of course, Linux.
To use the least possible bandwidth, the X2go server compresses all data before shipping it to the client. Analogous to virtualization software such as VirtualBox, you can freeze and resume sessions. Encryption and various authentication mechanisms take care of security. Sessions can be shared with CBT and other remote learning. X2go handles audio output through the Arts and ESD services, and now through PulseAudio. It also works along with other servers, whereby a built-in load balancer handles the traffic.
The necessary packages for X2go installation are in the project repository. The packages are currently optimized for Debian Lenny, but are also available for Ubuntu 9.04. Developers soon want to enhance the software by providing a virtual machine over which you can try X2go bindings.

Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal 14s
Source: #Reds' Cueto going on disabled list with lat strain.
Matt Garza strained his lat in February and is looking to make his season debut for the Cubs in May...
At least Cingrani getting a shot should be exciting.
Didn't Cueto tweak something in one of his first two starts this year as well. I seem to recall a trainer visit to the mound or Cueto grimacing or something.
Cueto has had a lat problem before. He hurt the right lat back in September 2011 and had to be shut down for the last few weeks of that season.
Just make sure its properly rehabbed and he eases back into pitching. It's a long season and no need to rush.
What I'm reading is NOT good. Isn't this the same injury he suffered in the playoffs last year?Will wait to hear the severity, but Homer, et al. will have to pick it up big time. Season just doesn't feel right.
I thought it was an oblique injury last year but I could be wrong.
6 weeks as a likely minimum blows. Dempster came back from a Lat quick but it was close to the deadline and he sucked the rest of the year after coming back.
Who is taking his place?
Tony Cingrani from Louisville. Filthy numbers this year.
I wonder if it has anything to do with his Luis Tiant delivery.

"Intelligent Control Using Online Stability-Based Knowledge Representation"
by Fan Zhang and Dirk Soffker
in the Proceedings of the 6th Vienna Conference on Mathematical Modelling, February 2009, pp. 200-208
In this paper, a new concept for intelligent control of stability in technical systems is proposed based upon the Situation-Operator-Model-based cognitive architecture of autonomous system. The novelty of the proposed method is that the controller can accomplish the task of control without knowing the detailed structure of the system plant, nor its physical behavior, because all the information needed in the control are gained by studying the phase portrait during the interaction process between the system and the environment, with the help of the static knowledge about the stability and the goal of control. Furthermore, the performance of the control is improved according to the experiences of the controller which are gained by the cognitive functions and stored in the learned knowledge base. These two features are realized within the framework built up by Sit- uation-Operator-Model approach to represent the reality. An example of stabilizing a pendulum with unknown impulse disturbances is utilized to illustrate the approach.

They're getting married!
Leighton Meester and Adam Brody are engaged, PEOPLE has confirmed.
The former Gossip Girl actress, 27, and the former The O.C. star, 33, whom sources confirmed were dating earlier this year, have been notoriously hush-hush about their relationship.
Though they make a point to keep a low profile, the couple were spotted having dinner with another friend in Venice, Calif., in February at local Mexican restaurant La Fiesta Brava.
As the couple left the restaurant, "Adam put his arm around Leighton and the two smiled at each other while she snuggled into his chest before the trio headed out," an onlooker told PEOPLE.
The pair worked together on the 2011 film The Oranges.
In 2010, Meester spoke about her "really hard" split from Sebastian Stan, saying, "I was really sad when it ended, but that's what taught me a lot about myself and love and life – and that's good."
Brody famously split with costar Rachel Bilson in 2006. "It was a typical romance and they just grew apart," a source told PEOPLE at the time.

Care at the End of Life (cont.)
Where to Receive Care
Deciding where you will receive care as your illness progresses can be challenging, but planning now for your care can decrease your anxiety later on. Talk to your loved ones about the type of care you would like to receive at the end of your life. Discuss their expectations as well as your wishes, care needs, finances, and the needs of your family. Your choice may change as your illness changes.
A study of seriously ill patients in hospitals and their family members showed that the most important elements of end-of-life care were:1
Several care options are available, including hospice, home care, nursing home placement, or care from an assisted-living facility. Your choices may be limited by your medical coverage or what you can afford to pay.
Studies show that most people die in a hospital or nursing home.2 If you would prefer to have your final care at home, planning ahead may allow you to do so.
Hospice care
As death nears, you may choose to receive help and support from hospice. Hospice care focuses on using palliative therapies exclusively to manage pain and other symptoms when there is no cure for your condition and death is anticipated within the next 6 months. Part of this care is keeping you as alert and comfortable as possible in a familiar environment, surrounded by your family and friends. When you choose hospice care, you agree to forego curative and life-sustaining treatments. But you can change your treatment plan at any time.
Hospice care is provided by a team of health workers, including nurses, social workers, volunteers, counselors, and personal care assistants. Your doctor can continue to direct your care and work closely with you and the hospice team. Hospice care most often occurs at your home, although it can be given in a nursing home, a hospital, or a hospice center. If you remain at home, the hospice team supports your family in their caregiving. And "family" is not limited to your spouse (or partner) or blood relatives. Friends from your workplace, church, community, or neighborhood may be considered part of your family.
Hospice care seeks to relieve physical symptoms and address your emotional, social, and spiritual needs, as well as the needs of your loved ones. Hospice offers a chance to address difficult but normal concerns that you and those you love may have about death and dying, such as pain, unresolved issues, and caregiving needs. If you choose, the counseling and support services that hospice provides will offer opportunities to work on mending important relationships and to explore spiritual issues.
The hospice team can help with advance directive forms and with legal and financial affairs. Also, hospice staff can answer questions about treatment and what to expect during the dying process. The team can also help with physical needs, such as bathing and pain control.
Hospice services are a benefit of many private health insurance policies. Check your health plan for specific information about hospice coverage. Also, if you qualify for Medicare benefits, hospice services are covered through the Medicare hospice benefit.
For more information on choosing hospice, see the topic Hospice Care.
Home care
You may choose to remain at home as your illness progresses, especially if you have a large support network of family and friends who can help with your care. Another factor in making this choice may be whether you have the financial resources to hire trained caregivers to help your family with your care. Remaining at home in a familiar environment, surrounded by loved ones, may be the best care option in these circumstances.
Community services are available to help your family provide care for you at home. Talk to your doctor about receiving help from hospice or a nursing agency. Make a list of people who can help your family with your care, including people from work, church, or community groups. In many larger communities, private case management practices are available to help find and coordinate the services you may need in order to be cared for at home.
Nursing home care
You may consider receiving care in a nursing home if you are unable to remain at home during your illness. A nursing home also may be the best option if you need more skilled care than can be provided at home, or if a family member is unable to care for you because he or she is ill, disabled, or elderly.
Information on choosing a nursing home may help you as you decide whether nursing home care is the best choice for you.
Assisted-living facilities
Assisted-living facilities are a popular alternative to nursing homes for people who can provide the majority of their own care. Assisted-living facilities generally offer individual rooms with limited cooking facilities in each unit. Residents usually meet in a dining room for meals. Housekeeping and laundry services, social activities, and access to a nurse are typically provided.
Some assisted-living facilities are connected to a nursing home. In these facilities, you can transfer from the assisted-care facility to the nursing home when you are no longer able to provide your own care. Get written information from the assisted-living facility about what is expected if your condition gets worse and you are no longer able to care for yourself. Many assisted-living facilities require that the resident move to a nursing home or hire a personal caregiver if skilled care is needed.
Regulations for assisted-living facilities vary from state to state.

Through a range of environmental initiatives and an effective ad campaign, Waste Management has fostered the solid waste industry's green consciousness.
What is in this article?:
It is common these days for companies to "go green." But Waste Management Inc. (WM), the largest U.S. waste firm, argues that it, along with the rest of the waste industry, was green long before green was cool. The Houston-based behemoth has decided to accentuate the green aspects of its business while building a marketing program around its particular brand of environmental responsibility. "We want to change the image of the trash industry," says Lynn Brown, WM's vice president of corporate communications. "We really aren't trash companies anymore. We're environmental companies."
To highlight that point, WM has set about proclaiming in its advertising that its environmental bona fides come from extracting materials from the waste stream and putting them to use. Useful materials include recycling commodities that provide raw materials for manufacturers; gas produced in landfills that generates electricity and powers motor vehicles; trash for waste-to-energy (WTE) plants; used electronic devices with components that can be recycled; and much more.
In 2007, WM generated 49 percent of its revenue from services that extract useful materials from the waste stream.
Recycling Now, Plus More To Come
WM processed or brokered (paying to tip at someone else's material recovery facility) 8 million tons of recyclable commodities in 2007. By 2020, the company expects to nearly triple that amount to 20 million tons.
Its subsidiary, WM Recycle America, recycles more municipal solid waste than any other recycler in North America, operating 105 material recovery facilities (MRFs) serving municipal, manufacturing, commercial and residential customers. Processing is handled at Recycle America MRFs. Alternately, WM hauls the brokered tons to MRFs owned by other waste firms for processing.
Recycle America will lead WM's recycling growth by increasing the number of advanced technology single-stream MRFs. According to company officials, single-stream processing produces an average increase in recycling amounts of 30 percent.
While manufacturers have voiced concerns about the quality of recyclable commodities recovered, advancing single-stream technologies are driving down rejection rates. WM Recycle America says its single-stream rejection rates are averaging 33 percent lower than recycling facilities using other processing methods, including dual-stream processing.
WM Recycle America also has introduced a nationwide electronics-recycling program in partnership with LG Electronics USA Inc. The program currently offers 150 e-waste drop-off sites across the country. Consumers can drop off LG, Zenith and Goldstar brands of televisions, monitors, audio equipment, VCRs, DVD players and recorders and other accessories free of charge. The program also will accept e-waste from other manufacturers for a modest charge.
According to Brown, the company is developing recycling programs for materials that have not previously been accepted by most recyclers. "We've invested in four facilities that will recycle compact fluorescent bulbs," Brown says. "The plants will extract the mercury from the bulbs and recycle it along with the metal, plastic and glass. We also have a pilot process to recycle shingles into asphalt. In this case, we'll market the end product, something we don't ordinarily do."

Pentagon Suspends Lockheed Missile Contract
A top Pentagon official has said he is withholding a contract from Lockheed Martin Corp. LMT -0.63 % over concerns about reliability problems with a missile interceptor that is a centerpiece of the Obama administration's missile-defense strategy.
Lt. Gen. Patrick O'Reilly, the director of the Missile Defense Agency, said Tuesday that a safety switch on the missile had failed qualification testing, forcing a delay in fielding the system, called Terminal High Altitude Area Defense, or THAAD. The switch is supposed to prevent accidental launch.
Production of the missile, Gen. O'Reilly said, is "badly needed" so the Army's first THAAD unit, stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas, can fully train on its equipment. But he said he would not approve a $400 million-plus production contract unless the company fixed the flaws and the safety device passed new qualification tests within the next 30 days.
"I am holding their [the contractor's] feet to the fire," Gen. O'Reilly said. "I will not move forward until they satisfy all the quality requirements and all the production start-up requirements."
According to Gen. O'Reilly, Lockheed offered a warranty over the part, called an optical block switch. If production is approved and new problems are discovered, the company will be liable for any extra costs stemming from production delays, he said.
Lockheed did not directly comment on the general's statement about the warranty. In a statement, Lockheed spokeswoman Cheryl Amerine said the company "is working closely with the MDA to complete qualification testing of an optical block switch for the THAAD interceptor. We are confident a solution is in place that will allow production to begin next month."
Along with Raytheon's RTN -0.30 % ship-launched Standard Missile-3, THAAD is a key piece of a strategy that calls for defending forward-deployed U.S. forces and allied nations against short- and medium-range missiles from North Korea and Iran. The system, which includes a truck-mounted launcher, interceptors, and X-band radar, is supposed to be capable of shooting down ballistic missiles both inside and just outside the atmosphere.
"These are defensive systems, and if the missile fails, you have very little time to put a second missile up there," Gen. O'Reilly said. "And because of the nature of the systems, quality has to be extremely high."

Now remains for Sky TV to apologise to JT for the way they reported the matter until recently.During the winter they were constantly talking of 'Anton Ferdinand, the alleged victim of a racist comment by John Terry'.This was a disgraceful example of judgmental journalism. Even up to yesterday they were reporting the case as a John Terry Racism Trial. Even the prosecution conceded JT is not a racist!FGS.You would think a broadcaster of Sky's notoriety would be more careful about the language they use.But on the other hand, they are mostly owned by Murdoch - so we get what we expect.Fortunately the magistrate knows his law better than Sky understand their responsibility to the community!Good on yer JT - Hold your head up high!

Misty Lilac is a frosty lilac color (dark lavender/light violet color). When applied to lips, it's fairly sheer but frosty. The color is not very flattering on my NC30ish skin--it drains the color form my face and the color looks a bit greyish.
PROS: Texture is alright. Decent lasting power, and decently moisturizing.
CONS: The color isn't flattering. The packaging looks cheap. The doefoot applicator doesn't apply much gloss.
I will not purchase this product.

Before: Rubbing Elbows
Before the redesign, the couple negotiated around each other to use either side of a double vanity, and to reach the tub at one end of the room and the shower at the other. A closet to the left of the tub hid the slanted ceiling but narrowed the space. Mirrors right and left didn't dispel the claustrophic feel of the 257-square-foot room.

ready or not?
anxiously waiting my spring miracle married to my best friend
i'm in the same boat....haven't packed a bag yet (although i have thought about it), and only have a few baby things out and ready. i just haven't had the time or energy...we have a 3 year old already and live in a very small house. for me, i just want the bare minimum out now, then we'll add stuff as we go along. babies don't need a whole lot of "stuff" in the very beginning anyway....best of luck!
I feel like I was more ready a month ago! Then I started to change things around in the nursery - LOL. That's not my big stress - I can get the nursery ready today - BUT it's the other stuff like boiling the breast pump parts, the bottles, etc.
It's also the rest of the house - I feel so unorganized! And my maternity leave does not start until April 20 - I could have the baby by then!
Oh well - I wish I had the energy to just push through like I used to! DH has been a great help, but he is working 6 days a week to get his car paid off in the next month so we have one less bill when bbaby comes - looks like our dining room will remain a pit stop filled with random crap everywhere! LOL
Jo (37) Bill (DH, 36) - Married 7/99
Nora (DD1 7/01); William (DS 1/03); Vivi (DD2 12/05);#4 EDD 5.1.12 (It's a BOY!)
Not ready at all and not really worried about it. This is my fourth child and I know better now. Don't need much except for major stuff: crib, carseat, some clothes, diapers, bottles. Will worry about this in mid-April.
I'm not ready at all either I dont have anything ready. after next week ima start getting things ready.
I'm ready as can be lol. I'm so excited to meet her, but I will miss my pregnant belly just not all the pain that came with this pregnancy! lol. Good luck getting everything ready :)

Harrison Ford's Extraordinary Measures
Harrison Ford: Airplane Pilot continued...
Just don't call Ford that -- at least not to his face. The "action star" moniker, he thinks, comes from "my films that have made the most money. But [those who elevate him to such status] are not relating to my whole body of work." Even if Ford's biggest parts admittedly do involve light sabers, swords, or the occasional bullwhip, his protagonists are, without exception, "in way over their heads," he insists. He sees himself as a character actor who just happens to be a leading man. Extraordinary Measures included, he gravitates to plum roles that reveal "a path of development … I'm not a professional showoff. I'm a storyteller."
But if acting is all about taking action, look no further than to one of Hollywood's biggest icons. Ford has never rested on his Han Solo-Indiana Jones-Jack Ryan laurels. He challenges himself. Here at the Santa Monica Airport, he houses three of his own small planes and a helicopter.
"Around 14 years ago, I realized I hadn't learned anything new in a very long time," he says. "I wanted to learn how to fly: the skill of it all, the interface between responsibility and the freedom it grants you. It reinvented the world for me, and how I answer the question, 'What do you do?' Well, I now can say 'pilot.'"
These days, when Ford isn't busy searching for the next great script, he's hanging out in remote northern Idaho with his flying buddies.
"We set up a camp in one of these wilderness strips," he says, "and each day we break up into five or six flights and land in challenging places. It's beautiful, but it's about practicing, about what gets you safely up and down."
Ford also regularly flies between Los Angeles and his home in Jackson Hole, Wyo., one of several residences he shares with his fiancée, actor Calista Flockhart, and her son, Liam, 9. The actor also has four grown children -- Benjamin, Willard, Malcolm, and Georgia -- from two previous marriages.
Environmental Agent
Ford takes action in other ways, too. His commitment to environmental issues is long-standing, from humorous public service announcements where he waxes his chest hair (ouch) to illustrate deforestation to another PR push to help save endangered tigers.

Really interesting song indeed. Overall the song seems to be somewhat unconsistent so I guess it could be difficult to like the song as a whole but there definitely are some parts that I really like. Those parts with the strings and the choir create an awesome atmosphere and remind me of an old dos game: Heretic.
The beginning of the song was quite distinct from the rest of the song and seemed to contain some interesting rhythmic stuff. It was all right but I didn't like it as much as the rest of the song. Still overall pretty nice job!

Water contamination worries surface over drilling procedure
By Grace Wyler
The natural-gas FRENZY has put local landowners in the middle of a contentious debate over the environmental costs of drilling.
As oil and gas drillers prepare to tap into eastern Ohio's lucrative shale formations, the industry has increasingly come under fire from landowners and environmentalists who claim drilling techniques are contaminating water supplies.
The conflict centers around a common drilling practice known as hydraulic fracturing. The process, used in nine out of 10 of the country's gas wells, involves millions of gallons of water, sand and chemicals pumped into a well to break apart the rock and release the gas.
On a recent morning, Pebble Beach Court — a sleepy, affluent neighborhood off of Tippecanoe Road — got a glimpse of the controversial practice that has sparked widespread political and environmental argument.
Trucks lined up along the quiet street, pumping more than 121,000 gallons of water and 50 tons of sand deep into the earth at high pressures.
The new well is owned by EverFlow Eastern, a Canfield-based oil and gas company that has been drilling in Northeast Ohio since the early 1980s. The company drills into the Clinton Sandstone, a thick gas reservoir prevalent in much of eastern Ohio.
EverFlow uses hydraulic fracturing to drill all of its wells, said Tom Wood, a petroleum geologist contracted by EverFlow. Without the technique, it would be impossible to access natural gas trapped in the Clinton's tight pores.
"Hydraulic fracturing is an integral part of every one of the wells that we drill — they have to be hydraulically fractured to be commercially productive," he said. "Not once have we messed up a water well."
Wood added that he has hydraulically fractured more than 1,300 wells without incident.
The well construction process is designed to protect the water supply, said George Strawn of EverFlow. Wells are lined with steel pipe casing that extends below aquifers and solid cap rocks into the targeted geological formation.
Hydraulic fracturing occurs at least 5,000 feet below the surface, Strawn said, making it unlikely that the chemicals used in the process could cause contamination in the water supply.
Chemical additives make up only a small portion of the fluids used in hydraulic fracturing, said Rhonda Reda, executive director of the Ohio Oil and Gas Energy Program, an industry-sponsored educational initiative. Sand and water make up about 99.5 percent of the solution, with the chemicals serving as a "propellent" to reduce friction and keep the formation open so natural gas can move into the well, she said.
The process, which has been used in commercial wells since the late 1940s, is a major technological advancement for the drilling industry, Reda said.
"You are not going to drill a well today without using this kind of production-enhancing technique."
Both Strawn and Reda conceded that problems can arise from improper well construction or careless well operation. There have also been cases of water contamination from hydraulic-fracturing wastewater, the briny fluid that returns from the bottom of the well. This chemical-laden water is sometimes stored in open pits until it can be shipped to wastewater treatment facilities or put back into underground injection wells.
Flawed or leaky pits have resulted in some instances of groundwater contamination.
But Reda emphasized that Ohio has never had a case where hydraulic fracturing was cited as the source of water contamination, a claim confirmed by state records.
Natural-gas drilling is regulated by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources' Division of Minerals Management. The division's 21 full-time agents oversee about 34,000 natural gas wells.
There are 10 agents assigned to the 16 counties in Northeast Ohio, said Tom Tugend, deputy chief of the division. The agency expects to add 16 agents by the end of 2011, thanks to legislation passed earlier this year, he said.
The new law, Senate Bill 165, ends the regulatory program's reliance on the state's general revenue fund. As a result, regulators' salaries are now paid by fees assessed from drilling companies.
Tugend said he does not anticipate any major changes will have to be made to accommodate new drilling techniques, despite the increased environmental footprint of shale wells.
"It's all going to depend on how much activity is going on and when it starts to happen," he said. "We are comfortable with our current laws — we have a lot of latitude in the permitting process."
The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency has limited oversight over possible contamination from oil and natural gas drilling, said agency spokesman Mike Settles. Hydraulic fracturing is currently exempt from regulations under the federal Safe Water Act.
The state EPA's role has largely been limited to working with companies that want to recycle the hydraulic fracturing wastewater through municipal treatment plants.
Warren is the first Ohio community to get preliminary approval to accept wastewater from hydraulic fracturing. In September, the EPA issued a proposed permit modification to allow the Warren Pollution Control Center to accept up to 100,000 gallons of recycled hydraulic fracturing wastewater per day.
Patriot Water Treatment, a Warren-based company, will bring in the wastewater from Marcellus Shale wells and pre-treat it to remove metals before it enters Warren's municipal system.
The challenge with hydraulic fracturing wastewater is the high content of total-dissolved solids, or salts, Settles said.
"Our concern is that the wastewater treatment plants don't have the ability to remove this salt," he said. "The only solution is to dilute it with treated water."
If this process is not controlled properly, the salts could cause water-quality problems in streams that receive treated wastewater, such as the Mahoning River, Settles said.
Results from a pilot test in Warren have shown no negative outcomes, according to a September news release from the Ohio EPA. The increase in total-dissolved solid concentration is "not expected to cause significant biological impacts to the Mahoning River or impact downstream drinking water sources," the release said.
The permit was scheduled to take effect Dec. 1.
Warren and Patriot have appealed the 100,000-gallon-per-day limit set by the EPA, Settles said. Patriot has also approached other municipal wastewater treatment plants in the region about similar arrangements.
"We want to take a cautious approach and see how this works," Settles said. "There is a cumulative impact here — we could get to the point where we are salting up our streams."
"The new law, Senate Bill 165, ends the regulatory program's reliance on the state's general revenue fund. As a result, regulators' salaries are now paid by fees assessed from drilling companies. "
Ok does anyone else see a problem with a regulatory agency's salaries being paid by the industry that they are supposed to be regulating? Did we not just go through this with BP in the Gulf? It is distrubing that local agencies and municipalities have no authority to permit wells.
Wow...holy slant Batman. Maybe try to report both sides next time. Like, why would "fracking" be exempted from the Clean Water Act if it indeed caused no problems to groundwater aquifers? Why? Dig a little Vindy. Think for two seconds and try to ask some hard questions for once. There are more important, potentially life altering events going on in this area than the Oakhill mess.
And that stuff is not just "salts"...and even 0.5% of millions of gallons leaves plenty of room for known carcinogenic and mutagenic chemicals.
So what if Ohio hasn't had an incident yet? The companies drilling here are using the same methods as those in other states that have had significant problems. What a rediculous "point" to make.
God, get someone with some scientific understanding and a tad of skepticism to report this. Please. Because right now, you guys are running a better PR campaign for "fracking" than the drilling companies themselves.
For starters, get a list...a list of the chemicals in the fracking fluid and go to the chemistry and geology departments at YSU and ask them about it.
If anyone out there would like to see real journalism at work on the matter please watch:
Commenter: josh bruntler
These comments are extremely ammusing. If the U.S. was solely populated by people like yourselves we would be living in the dark, still trying to figure out how to stay warm. God forbid all the traffic that comes by your house, that is called PEOPLE WORKING. Or the greed created by job creation, that would be called AMBITION. I know it is a lot easier for you all to pay ten guys to watch one fill in pot holes and call it job creation, but at the end of the day we need to create a products/services somewhere in this country in order to keep paying for your health care bill and socioeconomic research. There is a risk involved with anything, should we put a moratorium on automobiles and highways so we can sit back and study in order to find a way for the world to be perfect? It's not going to happen idiots, get used to it. The truth is the industry has done more research/studies in order to better their practices than you people could even imagine, because unlike yourselves they are hooked up with an industry that makes PROFITS, and dont have to call over to Congress for grant money to support their retarded theories.
The only thing about this story is that it is happening in a quote (affluent neighborhood ) everything else is BS
Riddle me this: Someone help us understand how fracking 5,000 feet down somehow bypasses well water in the aquafer 200 feet down and does not penetrate or contaminate the water. How about it Tom Wood, George Strawn, Rhonda Reda or anyone. Vindy: Maybe Mrs Harrris from YSU Geology days can be contacted for her independant opinion. Are we just being hoodwinked ?
It is on the same principal that your alimentary canal doesn't contaminate your arteries . The frac zone is isolated by piping and only penetrates where holes have been cut in the pipe at the level of the gas zone .
Stan, thank you for the information. Let it be known forever that you really are living out your life as Bullwinkle J. Moose and lend your expertise as Mr. Know-It-All to all of us Vindy readers - on any subject. Me thinks I will wait until a real Rocket J. Squirrel gives an expert opinion to validate. That said, I do find you are "a funny guy", as stated by Henry Hill.
CompMan :
Glad to hear that you are the spokesman for all of us Vindy readers . It is nice to be looked after by Benny Hill who is taking the time from his search for answers . :)
Any endorsement from "Stan the Man Unusual" should make everyone run the other way as fast as possible.
Maggie asked why would fracking be exempt from the clean water act? Because dick cheney had the energy companies write America's energy policy and halliburton holds the patent on hydraulic fracking.
Everyone needs to watch the video in the link Maggie provided till it sinks in. Stan, you're excused, there's no point.
Another video with a few more bits of info below.
...be careful, verwe, verwe careful. There is no free lunch.... oh... and remember, it is the petroleum industry. Its not shrimp and redfish a thousand miles away, its our drinking water.
Interesting seeing Stan quote the Liberal News Media, since we all know everything from the Liberal Media is Poop. LMAO!
About the Bruntler quote from Stanny (because some people can' write for themselves):
1) bruntler looks like the type that gave us Love Canal, The Flaming Cuyahoga (and so on) ... and exploding faucets out west.
2) Lets say every automobile on the planet stopped running today. right now. I'm pretty sure life on the planet would not be in immanent danger. I would venture to say in a month we would all be alive.
Now if all the loose water on the planet became irreversibly contaminated life on the planet would cease in, what? A couple days? Only thing more important to life is what? Oxygen?
Point being Bruntler's argument is specious, contrary to popular belief life does not depend on cars, but life DOES depend on potable water.
3) Wanting to protect the water supply is the same as living in unheated caves. Anyone stupid enough to fall for that one?
Enough of Bruntler.
What I think is interesting is how there is a meeting in an affluent community.
Plenty of people have carried on about Liberal Tree Huggers and how there are people against progress and profit. Thats the short version.
And I believe these people have carried on this way because they live in an effluent community, I mean Affluent community. They didn't need to worry about a refinery or chemical plant popping up in their back yard because , after all they live in an affluent community. For these things there are 'lesser communities' populated by those without entitlement.
But now its going to happen to them, possibly their going to have sluice ponds for back yards, they can't let their kids run free because of the potential chemical contamination, or heavy metal exposure, and their drinking water may become polluted.
Its interesting how peoples perspectives and beliefs when an action could have negative consequences impacting them and not an abstract someone else someplace else.
They didn't support us when it was us getting the crappy end of the stick, now its your turn. Good luck.
About the chemicals being pumped into the ground? They have to get rid of industrial waste somehow.
Ah yes, I endorse the comfort zone . . ..
Plenty of food at a reasonable cost . Without transportation which is greatly influenced by fuel prices the food does you no good if you can't get to it . I like my living quarters at 72º . Yep, this also at a reasonable fuel cost . I don't take the bus so my wheels also depend on a fuel supply . The liberals would like to drive energy costs beyond the reach of everyone but government . Then they would blame the resulting problems on others . We are where we are today with higher prices because of their past do not drill policy . Now that we are drilling out of the past they want to return . So much for their having a memory and analytical skills .
Oh, well if Stan says it's okay, it MUST be okay, right?
What a fool.
Tigerlily :
Lead so we all can follow ! Shut down your gas furnace and remove it and the gas lines from your residence . Remove the electric lines and disconnect the water lines . Put in a composting toilet AKA outhouse . Solar cells on the roof and a battery for storage would be next . Apply for foreign food aid as buying US food would only entice others to continue their evil ways .
You are a @ss Stan

"You are a @ss Stan"
Psssttttt . . . .. if I was you and I would be related . :)
Stan the Man Unusual.....Another option would be to use clean, renewable and cheap energy like the power from this city. It's municipally owned and run, and 80% of the energy is from clean and renewable sources.
Oh wait, municipally owned means no multimillion dollar CEO's or billion dollar profits. Never mind, that would make it socialism right?
Ah cambridge , this hobby venture of Alemeda still has them dependant on the grid . King Coal, Nuclear and Gas are keeping the lights on in America . If the libs succeed in putting us all in dire poverty we can always apply for foreign aid . Hydrogen will be the fuel of the future but until then hydrocarbons are carrying the load .
Stan the Man Unusual.....The "hobby venture of Alameda", Alameda Municipal Power has been around since 1887 and has been using clean renewable energy since the 1970's and serves a city of more than 70,000.
The power they buy from the grid is put on the grid by geothermal power plants, solar, wind turbines and land fill gas plants.
This "hobby venture" was just awarded "The Governors Environmental and Economic Leadership Award" for 2010 which is California's highest and most prestigious environmental award.
Every city should have such a "hobby" don't you think?
cambridge :
"Every city should have such a "hobby" don't you think?"
My goal is to dam up the Mahoning , float a gambling boat and generate electric at the dam . This would be an excellent hobby don't you think ?
You get an A for Effort for trying to talk sense into some people!
I have a suggestion for all the people worried about water contamination. Take all the property you own and don't lease it to the greedy oil companies. But if someone else owns the property and pays the taxes. They have the right to lease and drill under the current rules set forth by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and The Ohio EPA. I agree with Stan on this one Drill Baby Drill.
Mutate and develop strange cancers, baby, mutate and develop strange cancers, baby.
Tigerlily :
"Mutate and develop strange cancers, baby, mutate and develop strange cancers, baby."
Of course it aint tha drugs,booze cigarettes or the aids culture wasting humanity .
