I've got a driveway built out of 4'X4' cement slabs probably 4"-6" deep. Between each slab there is a gap of somewhere between an inch and 1.5 inches. It appears that when the driveway was originally built that the gaps between the slabs was filled with wood. The wood has since rotted and the gaps now provide channels for water. There is a gap between the row of slabs closest my house that is about 3" wide. This gap fills with water during heavy rain and spring runoff, which makes its way into my basement (no weeping tile, poured cement foundation). Basically, I've got a 3 inch wide 4 inch deep trench running along one entire side of my house that all of the water from my driveway is directly channeled to.
Is there any substance I could use to fill these gaps that wouldn't wash away and would also stand up to some shifting (freezing, thawing, movement of vehicle over the slabs)? I'll need 5-10 gallons at least, so it can't cost a fortune (caulking or something like it would be ideal but way too expensive). If I can fill these in the water will run away from the house and will help my drainage situation immensely.

I've been looking around and it looks like Quikrete non-shrink precision grout might be the way to go. Anyone have any experience with this?

Before you go putting grout/concrete in there...the wood filler strips may have been there to form some sort of expansion joint between the sections. If you fill it in with a non-compressive material you might end up with cracking in the concrete. I'm no expert, but it was just a thought.

I would not put something solid in between there, unless it's quite flexible. I think you're asking for trouble if you have no room for expansion._______________

Crushed limestone sounds good and is easy to do. You could also buy the tubed tar/mortar repair at Home Depot but it can be expensive._______________

By Mr Larry D Mccaskill (ACC)March 1, 2012
As a child, Deborah J. Hunter's curiosity would lead her down a path resulting in a brush with a significant historical figure.
A military family member, Hunter lived most of her youth in Germany in the culturally and ethnically diverse world of the U.S. military.
"My father was in the Army and all I knew was that I was always around different people and we all got along," said Hunter, special assistant to the executive director, Army Contracting
Command. "I have to say, looking back I was pretty naive about a lot of things."
Having never experienced racism, Hunter couldn't make any sense of it.
"My father was reassigned to Korea so my mother and I went to live in Farmville, Va., where I was born. I couldn't believe how things were."
Farmville was the home of R. R. Moten High School, one of the five plaintiffs that challenged segregation in public schools and would become part of the landmark 1954 Supreme Court
decision, Brown v. Board of Education. This decision declared segregation in public education unconstitutional.
Living in a world filled with segregation and injustice, Hunter asked her mother for answers. Her mother told her to write a letter to someone who might be able to answer her questions better than she could. The response she got lit a fire from within.
"I have received and greatly appreciate your very kind letter. I am gratified in your interest in our work," the reply read. "It is an inspiration to me and all who are committed in the struggle for human rights and dignity." The letter was signed by Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Back then, I didn't understand the relevance of it, but it did make me feel better about some things," she said.
Not much later, Hunter attended a civil rights march with her mother that included Stokley Carmichael and other civil rights leaders.
In 2002, Hunter lost her mother. Going through her mother's important papers she made a startling discovery. Her mother had saved the letter.
"I was pretty shocked. It had been decades since I had seen it," she said. "Not only had she saved the letter, she saved the envelope with some notes she had scribbled down.
Decades later, Hunter's involvement with civic organizations continues and she sees no reason to stop.
"As a nation we've come a long way. Many people my age never thought they'd see a black president. My mother would be so proud and happy if she could have seen that," Hunter said.
"We still have some room to grow and I am certain we will."

|"Wednesday Comics" #9 on sale now
Welcome back to CBRâs weekly look at DC Comicsâ hit series, âWednesday Comics.â Presented in a broadsheet format (14 inches by 20 inches), the 12-week series features 15 strips written and illustrated by Eisner Award winners like Kyle Baker, Brian Azzarello and Kurt Busiek. And with DC icons Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman standing tall beside lesser-known characters like Adam Strange, Metamorpho and Deadman, there is truly something for everybody.
Every Wednesday, CBR News presents a new interview with the creators bringing this unique title to life. This week, itâs industry legend Walt Simonson, who has teamed up with long-time DC cover artist Brian Stelfreeze (âBatman: Shadow of the Batâ) for a strip featuring the odd couple of The Demon and Catwoman.
Additionally, we have as special guest this week in DCU Executive Editor Dan DiDio, who is writing the Metal Men strip illustrated by José Luis GarcÃa-López.
Q&A WITH âWEDNESDAY COMICSâ WRITER WALT SIMONSON
CBR: How did you land on the team-up of Catwoman and The Demon?
WALT SIMONSON: [âWednesday Comicsâ editor] Mark Chiarello called me up and asked if was interesting in writing one of the stories. And we kind of went around it a little bit. He had a couple of ideas in terms of what story to do. And eventually we settled on The Demon and Catwoman. I wanted The Demon because I think heâs just really cool and Iâm an old [Jack] Kirby fan. What can I tell you? But I wanted to mix it up with something that wasnât just your standard crossover. So we talked about different female characters at DC until finally, and Catwoman was one of the ones we were talking about, we decided on Catwoman.
As for Jason Blood, I gave him kind of a stately home over in England. Iâm sure he had stately homes everywhere, so what the hell. But I thought with the artifact collecting and stuff he did that he would make a pretty good target for what Catwoman normally does, which is steal stuff.
I remember when it was announced, there was a lot of âWhat? What? What? Why are they mixing these guys up?â but actually, given what he did in his civilian life and what she did in her supervillainess identity, whatever you want to call it, they seemed like a good match.
|Walt Simonson & Brian Stelfreeze page from "Wednesday Comics"
Have Catwoman and Etrigan crossed paths before?
Honestly, thereâs been so much continuity at this point and so many years of it that I wouldnât be prepared to say that itâs never happened. So all I can say is that I donât know if itâs ever happened. And nobody I know knows that itâs ever happened before. It gave us a little, but different, place to start with the storyline. And I thought it would be fun. Mostly, my goal in doing stories is to be entertaining and try to find stories that would be entertaining. And ones that entertain me. And if they entertain me, I kind of hope theyâll entertain other folks.
You said you were a big Demon fan and a Kirby fan. What about Catwoman?
I like Catwoman but I havenât followed that stuff as much. I like the work on her by different artists over the years, wasnât she in the âBatman: Year Oneâ story by Frank [Miller] and Dave [Mazzucchelli]? And Iâve enjoyed the character for a long time. Itâs maybe because Demon has such a shorter history. Heâs been here and there but he hasnât been used for long runs on books so heâs easier to keep track of. But I do like Catwoman a lot. And I also like that sheâs sassy and I thought that would be a really nice mix with Jason Blood.
The way the story works out, it starts off really as a caper story and then, because itâs The Demon, it really moves in a somewhat direction. One of things about the stories I like is, and I donât know if this is clear in the published version, but Mark thought that we didnât have to be bound by continuity. And what I mean by that is that even if there was a Catwoman and Demon story, I probably would have had to taken that into account, but I couldnât find any. And so what Iâm really doing in my story is a kind of an alternate DC Universe sequel to the last of âThe Demonâ issues by Kirby, which is about #14 or #15 or somewhere in there. He had a story where Morgaine le Fey came back and confronted The Demon and then he wrapped that up. And this is a story that pretty much leads out of that issue although Iâve tried to write it so that if you never read âThe Demonâ and never read those issues, it wonât make any difference. If you have, you may go, âOh, cool.â Although I have fiddled a couple of things just because thatâs the way I am. [laughs] I havenât tried to make it exact. Iâve tried to make it interesting. I use that story as one of the springboards for the story that Iâm telling.
In preparation for this interview, I read that The Demonâs look was inspired by an old âPrince Valiantâ storyline.
Oh yeah. That was one of the very early stories. He takes a chicken, turns it inside out, pulls it over his head, a dead chicken I hasten to add, skins it, pulls the skin off, pulls it over his head with the legs sticking out like his ears and frightens a bunch of guys in the castle, who freaked out when a demon shows up.
In fact, in the original comic -- and I donât know how Jack worked on this exactly, so I donât know how this functioned -- but if you go back and look at the original run -- I believe itâs at the very end of the first issue -- thereâs a shot of The Demon as heâs confronted by the forces of evil and Morgaine le Fey. He looks the same in all of the panels of that issue and on the last page, which is an interior splash, he looks a lot more like the âPrince Valiantâ demon from Hal Foster. He never looked that way again and I donât know if that means it was the first drawing Jack did of the character, but I have heard â although I donât know if this is true, youâll have to check with my fact checker Mark Evanier â that Jack didnât always do things in order. I donât if thatâs true. He may have drawn that page originally and then worked backwards, I donât know but in this one shot of The Demon, it is very clearly, quite different, the visage, from the way he established him. It looks a lot more like the âValiantâ demon.
You seem very knowledgeable about âPrince Valiant.â Are you a big fan of the early Hal Foster strips?
I like it a lot. Itâs kind of hard to get a hold of a lot of that stuff. Itâs in places here and there, I know Fantagraphics put a bunch of them out, but the first year or two, I know reasonably well because years ago somebody put them out in these gigantic folio forms. I have read a bunch of them, probably the first two years and then stuff from the fifties.
In speaking with you and other âWednesday Comicsâ creators, itâs clear âPrince Valiantâ is one of the Cadillacs of this format?
There are tons of strips. But yes, itâs certainly one of the Cadillacs of newspaper strips. Thatâs absolutely true. At the same time, for me, Foster was an illustrator that was writing stories. And part of the mark of that was that he didnât use word balloons. He did stuff with captions and dialogue and didnât create word balloon shapes. I presume he felt it detracted from the artwork but he didnât use them. So although I like the stories a lot, Iâm in love with the artwork. Itâs not my entire model. And Iâm not drawing the strip either, so I donât have to worry about that.
But If I were to take a model for all things that Iâm doing, as far as a once-a-week Sunday comics-type things, Iâm probably taking something from Leonard Starr and his âMary Perkins, On Stageâ strip because I still think that Starr was one of the absolute best guys to ever do newspaper strips. Theyâre just straight strips. Part of that is he had great sense of pacing and structure, the daily structure and the weekend structure of how those strips played out when you read three panels a day.
He would also do a beautiful job of making the first panel kind of summarize, and the next panel would move the story forward, and the last panel would climax. Heâd do the same thing, day in and day out, and heâd handle that in the Sunday strip as well. And the way that worked was that he would run the Sunday stories as part of the daily stories -- but not everybody gets the daily paper, they might get the Sunday only. And not everybody gets the Sunday paper, they might get the dailies only. So he had to write it in a way that you could read all the dailies and follow the stories and read the just the Sunday and follow the stories. And yet, you could read both of them and have an amplified vision of whatâs happening. I just thought he was brilliant at that.
That sets the pacing of a summary. I havenât done the summary so much because you figure âWednesday Comicsâ is going to be collected somewhere down the line, so I have not been as careful about that. I have tried to move the story forward in each episode, and Iâve tried to end each one on an up-tick, so you have to come back next week to see what happened. So the Starr work is probably more my model for how Iâd like this comic to be structured, not so much the fantasy aspects, but the structure.
Are there any challenges working with The Demon, specifically in terms of his âvoice?â
The Demon has been written different ways by different writers from Kirby to Alan Moore, and occasionally heâs been written in verse. And I thought about that but I also thought, âIf I write this in verse, itâs going to sound like bad limericks.â
So I thought about it, and in the end I wanted an archaic feel because The Demon goes back, in the original stories, to Arthurian times. He was summoned by Merlin to help fight the fall of Camelot. It didnât work out too well for him, but at least he was around at that point. He goes back a long, long way or whenever you think Camelot happened. So I wanted the language to have a somewhat archaic flavor and in the end, I opted to write him in iambic pentameter and that can be written in blank verse.
donât have to worry about that.
Iâve seen some flack on the web: âI canât read this stuff.â But I mean, itâs 150 words once a week, get over it. I donât know if itâs hard to read poetry but if I try to read it the way I read prose, I donât know if I get that much out of it. I do much better if I actually read the stuff aloud. If I read it aloud, I get a lot more because so much poetry is rhythm. Not only the rhyme but the rhythm and the structure, the way the words fit together, and if hear it I do a much better job. So all I can do is recommend that if you read âThe Demon and Catwoman,â you try to read it aloud. [laughs]
Walter says, âRead this aloud.â Itâs like old rock nâ roll records that used to have things written on them like, âPlay this loud.â It used to say that at the bottom. I should have thought of that. We could have a little note at that bottom left-hand corner saying, âRead this aloud.â But itâs too late for that now.
Did you consider drawing the Demon/Catwoman story for âWednesday Comics?â
No. Iâm actually in the middle of doing a long graphic novel for DC that Iâm astoundingly late on and Iâm only lucky that they havenât sent hitmen out to deal with me. So until that project is done, Iâm not doing any other drawing. Iâve finished all the drawing of all the stuff that I owed people and now Iâm just doing this book until Iâm finished.
Has that project been announced?
Itâs been semi-announced, but since itâs a long way to go, they havenât done much with it, which is fine. Itâs called âThe Judas Coinâ and it wonât be out next year or even later next year. Itâs not a secret but I havenât been talking about it much because I have a long way to go.
But I have to say, boy, I am dying to draw one of these [âWednesday Comicsâ] things. Thereâs just so much room. Holy cow! And I wouldnât put in 5,000 panels. Iâm not Chris Ware. But you could do tiny panels and large panels, you could really play with the space. Iâm kind of hoping when I get done this graphic novel that theyâre still doing stuff like this down the road. I would love to draw one.
Brian [Stellfreeze] is doing a lovely job with it. Itâs cool to see them when they come out. In a way, itâs just fun to see comics that big.
Q&A WITH âWEDNESDAY COMICSâ WRITER DAN DIDIO
During the DC Universe Editorial Presentation at Fan Expo, DiDio made the following statement about âWednesday Comics.â What follows is a brief Q&A conducted minutes after the panelâs conclusion.
DAN DIDIO: The person who is almost solely responsible for pulling this all together is our Senior Art Director, Mark Chiarello. Mark, for over two years, has been pitching âWednesday Comicsâ and we have tried every which way humanly possible to stop him from doing it. Seriously. We tried to change formats. We tried to change structure. We tried to change the amount of time it came out, but he was so locked in to this particular style on this particular paper with this particular brand of storytelling and he was just relentless, coming at us, coming at us. So what finally happened was that he put together such an amazing array of talent on this book that it was impossible to say no.
|"Wednesday Comics" pencils by José Luis GarcÃa-López
And again, we werenât sure what the reaction was going to be. But the reaction has been pretty strong for us. Actually itâs been pretty amazing how people have just embraced the whole thing and itâs been a lot of fun.
And from a personal standpoint, Mark brought me in at the very last minute when somebody else dropped out. That always makes you feel important. [laughs] And itâs just been a pleasure for me to work with these guys.
CBR: You mentioned during the panel that youâve enjoyed working on the series, not as Executive Editor but as a contributing writer.
I had too much fun. One of the things I wanted to do with Metal Men was try to challenge myself in regards to what information was going to be provided during the course of the story. And also, leave cliffhangers and explain who they were and make it an entry point to whatâs going on. Itâs the first time Iâve ever written characters that I truly love so it was a little weird to do. But itâs actually given me the bug to start writing again. So yes, it was actually a lot of fun for me.
Are you are going to be writing some more?
Yeah, Iâm actually taking on a monthly series at the beginning of the year.
Can you tell us what it is?
No, not really. [laughs] Not yet.
Will José Luis GarcÃa-López be drawing it?
No. Iâm trying to get him to do more work in the DCU but heâs really involved with the DC style guide. He was one of the first artists that I could identify when I was growing up reading comics so itâs amazing to work with him.
âWednesday Comicsâ #9 is on sale now from DC Comics. Be sure to check back next week when we discuss Wonder Woman with Ben Caldwell.

Children's Vaccines Health Center
Studies: No Link Between Autism, Vaccines
Sept. 7, 2004 -- Thimerosal, the preservative formerly used in vaccines, and autism are not linked, according to three new studies.
It's been controversial for years, this theory that vaccines containing thimerosal could cause neurological and psychological problems like autism. Many studies have discounted this link, but many parents have not been convinced.
In 2001, thimerosal was removed from all routinely recommended childhood vaccines as a precautionary measure.
In this month's issue of the journal Pediatrics, two large studies from the U.K. show no significant link between thimerosal-containing vaccines and abnormal neurological development. The third study is a careful review of all research published thus far.
The Newest Evidence
In the first study in Pediatrics, researchers analyzed data on more than 14,000 children, tracking their vaccinations at 3, 4, and 6 months of age as well as their calculated mercury exposure. They compared the data with information on the children's brain and motor development from age 6 months to age 7 or 8, when many children are diagnosed with autism.
The researchers looked at various outcomes including behavioral, speech, and other development milestones.
They also took into account other factors that might have skewed their data -- like the baby's birth weight, premature birth, whether the mother smoked, if the baby was breastfed, and ethnicity.
In the end, "we could find no convincing evidence" that early childhood exposure to thimerosal had any harmful effect on the children's brain, motor skill, or behavioral development, writes lead researcher Jon Heron, PhD, a pediatric epidemiologist with the University of Bristol in England.
"This is reassuring news," writes Heron.
However, there was a slight conflict with the second study in Pediatrics.
In the second study, children getting vaccines had more behavior tics -- possibly minor, short-lived tics, writes researcher Nick Andrews, MSc, an epidemiologist with the Communicable Disease Surveillance Centre in London.
Andrews analyzed data on nearly 110,000 British children, comparing the amount of thimerosal in the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTP) and the diphtheria-tetanus (DT) vaccines with incidence of developmental disorders.
The vaccines actually seemed to lower the risk of general developmental disorders, including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), writes Andrews.

George Stovey
|George Stovey
|Born: May 1866
Williamsport, Pennsylvania
|Died: March 22, 1936
(aged 69)
Williamsport, Pennsylvania
|1886, for the Cuban Giants
|Last appearance
|1897, for the Williamsport Demorest Bicycle Boys
George Washington Stovey (May 1866 – March 22, 1936) is considered the best African-American baseball pitcher of the 19th century, but discrimination barred him from the majors and led him to move from team to team until he had no further opportunities to play in the minors. According to an 1892 recollection by Pat Powers, who managed Stovey in Jersey City in the Eastern League, the New York Giants in 1886 attempted to acquire Stovey. but Cap Anson helped stop the arrangement.
The alleged episode is examined at length in a 2006 book featuring Anson, which could not find any contemporaneous reporting to the above effect. The author concludes, "Powers's story may be mixed up with a contemporaneously reported controversy, late in the 1886 season, involving the signing of a white pitcher playing for Newark, John 'Phenomenal' Smith."[1]
In 1907, black player-turned-sportswriter Sol White alluded to a supposed effort in 1887 by New York to sign Stovey, and not to the 1886 effort noted as above. White, writing in a baseball book bearing his name, said "arrangements were about completed for his transfer from the Newark club, when a brawl was heard from Chicago to New York. The same Anson, with all the venom of hate which would be worthy of a (Benjamin) Tillman or a (James) Vardaman of the present day, made strenuous and fruitful opposition to any proposition looking to the admittance of a colored man in the National League." In prefacing his story, White said, "Were it not for this same man Anson, there would have been a colored player in the National League in 1887." [2]
It is possible that White muffed the above issue, as Powers arguably had done. But, in any case, there is interesting 1887 reporting involving Stovey.
On April 9, 1887, the Newark Journal said New York Giants manager Jim Mutrie offered to buy Stovey and teammate and fellow black Moses Fleetwood Walker, who were now both with Newark of the International League, "but [Newark] Manager [Charley] Hackett informed him they were not on [sic] sale."[3]
The day before that report, Newark and New York had met at the Polo Grounds, and Stovey and Walker had played (New York Sun, April 8, 1887). Presumably, Mutrie made his offer after the seeing the game. If so, since a single day elapsed between the game and the offer's rejection by Newark manager Hackett, it is highly unlikely that Anson, who was in St. Louis, would have weighed in.
In addition, Stovey was part of a far more acute controversy leading up to the 1887 season. It involved Newark and Jersey City, and reveals that Newark had no interest in selling him during the period in which White blamed Anson.[4]
Anson and Stovey did cross paths later in 1887, when, according to contemporaneous reporting, on July 14, 1887, following a vote that morning by International League owners to approve no more contracts with black players, in a home exhibition game against Chicago that afternoon, Newark's Stovey and fellow black teammate Walker sat out because of Anson's objection.
Both Stovey and Walker had played on July 11. The day of the Chicago game, the Newark News listed Stovey as the scheduled pitcher. Then, in its recap, it said, "Stovey was to have pitched for Newark, but he complained of sickness, and so [Micky] [sic] Hughes was substituted." Stovey did not play again until July 17, and Walker not until July 26. (Newark Journal, July 12 to July 27, 1887; Newark News, July 14–15, 1887.)[5]
A few days after the game with Chicago, the Newark Sunday Call said, "Stovey was expected to pitch in the Chicago game. It was announced on the ground [sic] that he was sulking, but it has since been given out that Anson objected to a colored man playing. If this be true, and the crowd had known it, Mr. Anson would have received hisses instead of the applause that was given him when he first stepped to the bat.(Newark Sunday Call, July 17, 1887; New York Telegram, July 18, 1887.)[6]
In 1889 he pitched for both the Cuban Giants, based at Trenton, New Jersey, and the New York Gorhams, based in Philadelphia. In 1891 he played for the Cuban Giants at Ansonia. These were all-black teams playing in organized baseball in those two seasons. He also played some in the outfield, batting .256 in a total of 122 games.

Hidden Potential
Luckily, Aimee and her equally game husband, Michael, had eyes only for what hadn't been ruined: 9-foot-4-inch ceilings trimmed with crown molding, arched French doors with dainty locksets and glass knobs, and generous rooms in a compact, free-flowing plan. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath house had lost its bearings since springing up in central Florida about 90 years ago, but it had retained so many windows, you could almost feel the cross-ventilation—assuming you could get them open.

Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory and mood issues. Researchers believe that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain processes pain signals.
Symptoms sometimes begin after a physical trauma, surgery, infection or significant psychological stress. In other cases, symptoms gradually accumulate over time with no single triggering event.
Women are much more likely to develop fibromyalgia than are men. Many people who have fibromyalgia also have tension headaches, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety and depression.
While there is no cure for fibromyalgia, a variety of medications can help control symptoms. Exercise, relaxation and stress-reduction measures also may help.

Case Conclusion Date: 04.23.2002
Practice Area: Criminal defense
Outcome: Not Guilty Verdict
Description: This was a case wherein the defendant was caught red handed with drugs and a large amount of money. Or so it seemed. It turns out that he was a fall guy, set up by a drug dealer who had been using him as a pawn to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. The sheriff's department came in on him in a hotel room because they had been asked to go there by someone whom it turned out was the actual drug dealer who wanted the defendant to take the fall. The jury saw through this charade and acquitted nick after deliberating for only a few minutes.

Under advanced wifi settings one can change number of Wi-Fi channels to be used (11, 13, 14). Does anyone have a clue on how does this property affect battery drain? I know it should be configured depending on how your Wi-Fi router is set-up, but maybe one number of channels should be ("defaultly") preferred over another so battery would last longer?
It has nothing to do with battery life; the number of channels is a regulatory issue (for example, in the US, only 11 channels are allocated for 2.4GHz Wi-Fi).
Technically, Wi-Fi is frequency hopping, so the "channel" is a center frequency around which the actual transmit frequency skips. You can't disable that; it's part of the channel sharing arrangement (Wi-Fi would be unusable if every client on the channel transmitted on the same frequency). And beyond that, which channel your device uses is determined by what AP you're associated with, so you have no control over it.

A man charged with the 2008 murder of Christchurch prostitute
Mellory Manning will stand trial next year.
Mauha Huataki Fawcett, 24, has been charged with the
kidnapping and murder of Miss Manning on December 18, 2008.
Her badly beaten body was found in the Avon River the next
day, and the brutality of her death shocked police
investigating the case.
Unemployed Fawcett's High Court trial will begin in
Christchurch on May 20 and is expected to take 4-5 weeks.
Fawcett is remanded in custody at an unnamed prison outside
Christchurch after being transferred away from the city's
mens prison for what defence counsel Craig Ruane has
described as "entirely legitimate reasons".

Halo 4
Gave me an Idea for another Halo! This was seriously inspirational! I loved it! 10/10 5/5
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Great...but, when...
This song is awesome. I mean you did great throughout the whole song, and it definitely signifies what the Halo series is all about. It owns. Plus, you have shone improvement from v1. But, when the hell is the actual song gonna come out?!?! It's been almost a year since THIS song came out! But, I guess good things take patience, right? But, what's more, you done great with v2, I hope for a complete song(or at least a v3) some time in the close future! 10/10 5/5 and a head nod. Peace.
haha the song's been complete for a while actually... it's just way too big to fit newground's "8mb bandwidth" thing
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Overall, it's pretty good. The guitar part wasn't all too good though. Also, the second part of both this and your first version had a remodified tune from Halo 2 (maybe it's in the others, idk). I looked up lone rider on google but couldn't find anything (I really like it). Is that what you call it or is that really what it's called?
the middle part is based off of the song "peril"
Rated 5 / 5 stars
i love halo!
yeah 10/10!

Canada Realtors Post Biggest Sales Gain in Almost 4 Years
Canadian realtors recorded their biggest sales gain in almost four years last month, the Canadian Real Estate Association said today, as the industry rebounds from the impact of a difficult winter.
Home sales rose 5.9 percent in May from April, the Ottawa-based agency said. The average price of a home sold in May climbed 7.1 percent from a year earlier, it said.
The gain is the fourth consecutive recorded by the nation's realtors, following four straight declines during a colder-than-normal winter across much of the country. The Bank of Canada said last week there's an elevated risk of a sharp correction in the country's housing market.
"Had it not been for such a brutal winter that delayed the launch of the spring market, the improvement in new listings and sales would likely have been more spread out over the past few months," Gregory Klump, the real estate association's chief economist, said in a statement.
Today's data follows a June 9 report by Canada Mortgage & Housing Corp., the country's housing agency, that showed new home building in May was at the strongest level in seven months.
Bank of Canada Governor Stephen Poloz said June 12 the main domestic risk in Canada is "stretched valuations and some signs of overbuilding" in the nation's real estate. Canada's housing market has continued to show strength even with the government tightening mortgage-lending rules.
"We're looking towards a soft landing," Finance Minister Joe Oliver told reporters today. "We don't believe we're in a bubble situation."
First-Quarter Decline
Housing was one of the industries that suffered as a result of colder-than-usual temperatures this winter. The first three months of the year saw home building have its biggest quarterly decline since the recession, according to Gross Domestic Product data released May 30 by Statistics Canada.
The industry has since rebounded.
Gains for realtors were broad-based in May, with sales in Toronto, the country's largest market, rising 5.8 percent. Transactions in Vancouver were up 2.6 percent, and 4.3 percent higher in Montreal. About 80 percent of markets recorded gains in sales, the Canadian Real Estate Association said.
"Over the past 25 years, that widespread a monthly sales increase has been recorded only a handful of times," Beth Crosbie, the agency's president, said in the statement.
Price increases during the month were more muted, rising 0.8 percent in May.
CREA also updated its forecast for home sales and prices for this year and next. Sales should increase 1.2 percent in 2014, the association said in a separate statement, down from 1.3 percent forecast in May. Sales should rise 0.9 percent in 2015, according to CREA.
The average national home price is forecast to jump 5.7 percent this year to C$404,300 ($372,250), and rise another 0.7 percent next year to C$407,300, CREA said.

Circus Animal Ban Considered by West Hollywood
Max Roeleveld / Flickr
West Hollywood is a bastion of liberal privilege, a place where fur retailing and most pet sales have been banned.
See also: West Hollywood Bans Most Retail Dog And Cat Sales.
The city is also skilled at banning stuff (like fur and pet sales) rarely seen within its boundaries. It's all about the headline. So here it is: The latest proposal before the West Hollywood City Council would ban circus animals from this lovely Westside town:
When's the last time you attended a circus in Weho (and we're not talking about the annual Halloween celebration on Santa Monica Boulevard)?

Thought so.
Google "West Hollywood circus" and you'll get results for Circus nightclub (which is actually in the city of L.A., in Hollywood). Now there's a place that needs a ban on wild bears.
We kid!
The proposal by council members Jeffrey Prang and John Duran would actually ban "the commercial display and performance of exotic animals."
(Sounds like a circus animal ban to us).
The idea will be considered Monday. A draft ordinance lists animals that would be outlawed for such activity in fine WeHo:
1. Non-human primates and prosimians (chimpanzees, monkeys)
2. Felidae (except domesticated cats)
3. Canidae (except domesticated dogs)
4. Ursidae (bears)
5. Proboscidae (elephants)
6. Crocodilia (alligators, crocodiles)
7. Marsupialia (kangaroos, opossums)
8. Reptilia over 8 feet in length and snakes and reptiles of venomous variety.
9. Perissodactyla (rhinoceroses, tapirs, but not horses or donkeys or mules)
10. Artiodactyla ( hippopotamuses, giraffes, camels, but not cattle, swine,
sheep or goats)
11. Hyaenidae ( hyenas)
12. Mustelidae (skunks, weasels, otters, badgers)
13. Procynonidae (raccoons, coatis)
14. Edentata ( anteaters, sloths, armadillos)
15. Viverridae (mongooses, civets, and genets)
16. Struthioniformes (ostriches)
17. Casuariiformes (emus)
Damn, they did ban bears!
The group Animal Defenders International has encouraged the ban, saying in a letter to Prang that "these animals suffer deprived environments, unnatural conditions and violence."
The proposal says the councilman want to ...
... protect the public from the hazards and dangers that are inherent in the use of wild and exotic animals for entertainment and amusement purposes, and to also protect animals form cruel and inhumane treatment from errant trainers and caretakers. West Hollywood has a long tradition of enacting progressive policies that ensure the humane treatment of animals.
We predict it will pass with flying colors.

Chris Edwards
Mad Magazine vs. Hollywood
Side-by-side obituaries in the Washington Post on Sunday were an interesting juxtaposition.
Highway Bill: Another Spending Test for the GOP
Chris Edwards testified yesterday to the Senate Finance Committee regarding federal highway and transit funding. Some thoughts.
All Aboard the Privatization Train
With the expiration of the current federal highway bill in a few months, the infrastructure issue is heating up. Newspapers are ginning up interest with stories about deficient and falling down bridges.
I Thought Liberals Favored Diversity?
Frequent stories in the Washington Post describe failures in federal management and programs. There are also frequent stories about efforts to further centralize power in Washington. The ambitions are endless, even though the failures keep piling up.
WaPo's Bridge Story Is Structurally Deficient
Oh dear, yet another scare story about falling-down bridges. A Washington Post headline today in the hardcopy is "63,000 Bridges Structurally Deficient, U.S. Says."
Federal Government Often Selfish, Not Selfless
A new Rasmussen poll finds that just 19 percent of voters think that the federal government "does the right thing nearly all the time." The poll also finds that two-thirds of voters think that the government "looks out primarily for its own interests."
White House Helicopter Fleet
Did you know that the White House has a fleet of 19 helicopters? The Washington Post today discusses efforts to replace this fleet of aging Sikorsky's with 21 new vehicles yet to be procured. The fleet is used by the president, vice president, and cabinet secretaries.
BLM vs. the Nevada Rancher
The battle between Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) might be viewed as an overly aggressive federal bureaucracy enforcing misguided environmental regulations vs. an oppressed individual and his overly enthusiastic supporters with guns.
Government Keeps Growing
Political scientist Matt Grossmann discussed the results of his research on federal government growth in the Washington Post last week.
The Income Tax vs. Civil Liberties
The Internal Revenue Service scandal over the targeting of conservative groups has highlighted the agency's power to obstruct our political freedoms. Filing taxes every April also drives home how the government reduces our freedom.

New Theories in the pathogenesis of menstrual migraine

Hormonal and nonhormonal factors play a role in the pathophysiology of menstrual migraine, but estrogen withdrawal appears to be the most potent of these factors. It is postulated that estrogen withdrawal directly enhances excitability of trigeminal afferents, modulates the synthesis of neuropeptides, activates/deactivates specific neurotransmitter systems, and influences the function of microglia. These changes could activate and/or sensitize the trigeminal system and increase the likelihood of migraine headache during perimenstrual time periods. Three new theories are advanced in this article to explain the pathophysiology of menstrual migraine. Only through an understanding of the mechanisms involved in menstrual migraine can we gain insight into the management of this severe and debilitating form of migraine headache.

A press release by the New York State Department of Health1 indicates that fifty-two of sixty-nine upstate communities reported 35 per cent or more of children under 5 years of age immunized against diphtheria as of June 1, 1941. The percentages were based on population estimates from births and deaths as of June 1, 1940. Godfrey2 showed that immunization of 35 per cent or more of children under 5 years in a given community would make that community reasonably safe from an outbreak of the disease, although unimmunized children would, of course, remain susceptible, and there might be sporadic occurrences of diphtheria. The same study by Godfrey showed also that immunization of much larger percentages of children of school age did not protect the community against an outbreak of diphtheria. In the light of these studies, it is of particular interest to

Mark Gurman is probably the most respected and trusted blogger when it comes to breaking Apple news. Today, in a new post at 9to5Mac, he sheds some light on the Apple TV 4, as his sources report major facelifts in both hardware and software domains.
Apple TV users often find themselves switching between the Apple TV remote and the televion remote. Changing the volume and source on the television requires the TV remote while the normal navigation of content of course requires the silver Apple TV remote. For media buffs, this turns out to be much annoying and we have always longed for a solution. Sideclick aims to be one.
Just a week after Apple added new channels to the Apple TV in several countries across the world, the tiny black set-top box got a new content once again, this time in Australia, Japan, UK, Ireland and Scandinavia.
You are here probably because your Apple TV's visual output to the television is not as expected. This can be due to a variety of reasons and manifests in different ways. So, before you take your Apple TV to an Apple Store for repair, try this guide to learn how you can fix some common video issues with it.
Apple has added a whole bunch of new channels to the Apple TV yesterday. Here is a full list of all new channels:
The New York Times reports that the new Apple TV is expected to be announced this June during WWDC 2015. Citing an anonymous Apple employee "briefed on the product", NYT claims the 4th gen. Apple TV will get a new, "slightly thicker" remote with a touchpad and will offer a web-based TV service.

HILLSBORO — In a battle between two of the most potent offenses in Class 3A football, it came down to extra points Saturday as the Sedgwick Cardinals downed the Hillsboro Trojans 38-34 at Joel H. Wiens Stadium in the second round of the playoffs. Sedgwick, 10-1, takes on Beloit at 7 p.m. Friday in Sedgwick. Hillsboro ends the season 10-1. Sedgwick made four of five two-point conversions. Hillsboro made two of three two-point conversions and missed two extra-point kicks. "We shot ourselves in the foot a couple times with turnovers and penalties," Sedgwick coach Jeff Werner said. "That was our message to our kids at halftime. We just needed to relax and not make those plays. A lot of those, the kids were just were excited to play." Sedgwick was led by Logan Thompson with 215 yards rushing and three touchdowns. Dalton Brandt rushed for 136 yards and two touchdowns. "We knew coming in, it was going to be a close game," Thompson said. "We needed every point we could get. We knew they were a pretty good passing team. We had to stop (Shaq Thiessen). We also had to stop (Tyrell Thiessen) up the middle. Our offense had the outside running game going pretty good." Sedgwick senior Drake Standifer had two interceptions and caught two passes from Thompson for two-point conversions. "(The first interception) was a big game-changer," Standefer said. "We knew (Shaq Thiessen) could catch the ball. I just tried to stay on top of it. I saw the ball go in the air. I fought to come down with it. It really changed the tone of how the defense played. (The two-point conversions) were big. Our quarterback read the defenses pretty well. Once he saw me open, he threw it too me. I just had to catch it." Hillsboro quarterback Tyler Proffitt hit 21 of 34 passes for 237 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions. Proffittt added a rushing touchdown. Tyrell Thiessen had seven carries for 79 yards and two touchdowns. Evan Ollenburger had seven catches for 86 yards and a score. Shaq Thiessen added seven catches for 77 yards. Hillsboro turned the ball over on its first possession, setting up 15-yard scoring run for Thompson. On the next play from scrimmage, Tyrell Thiessen rumbled in for a 63-yard touchdown run. Each team missed its PAT attempt. Sedgwick scored on a long drive, ending on a three-yard Brandt run. Thompson hit Standifer on a pass for the two-point conversion. The Cardinals then made a defensive stop, but turned the ball back over on its own nine, setting up a nine-yard run for Tyrell Thiessen. Proffitt hit Shaq Thiessen for the two-point conversion. A fumbled punt set up four-yard Thomson run. Thompson hit Standifer for another two-point conversion. Sedgwick had another chance to score before the half, but had three 15-yard penalties to kill the drive. Sedgwick got to the Hillsboro four to open the second half, where the Cardinals turned the ball over on an interception at the one. Hillsboro then went 99 yards the other way, scoring on a 37-yard pass from Proffitt to Ollenburger on a fourth-and-long play. Tyrell Thiessen ran in the two-point conversion to tie the game. Shaq Thiessen intercepted Thompson on the next play from scrimmage. The Sedgwick defense held, setting up a 26-yard scoring run for Brandt. Thompson ran in the two-point conversion. Hillsboro came back with a long drive that ended on a seven-yard Proffitt run. The two-point conversion attempt was stopped, keeping Sedgwick up by two. Hillsboro converted on a long third-down play and a long fourth-down play to keep the drive alive. Two plays later, Brandt ran the ball in from 61 yards, but the score was called back for a block in the back. Sedgwick overcame the penalty, scoring on a five-yard Thompson run with 3:47 in regulation. Thompson ran in the two-point conversion to put the Cardinals up by 10. Sedgwick gambled with an on-side kick, which the Trojans recovered at their own 45. It took Hillsboro just six plays to score on a 30-yard pass from Proffitt to Ollenberger. The PAT kick missed low. Sedgwick recovered a squib kick and was able to run out the clock. "Our kids played hard," Werner said. "It's a heck of a win. This is the furthest a Sedgwick team has gone in the playoffs. We're in elite company in the state." Beloit enters this week's game 11-0, stopping Holcomb 60-8. "Coming into this season, I knew they would be one of the teams to beat in 3A," Werner said. "They have a lot coming back. It will be a heck of a challenge. We'll get back to work on Monday to get ready for the game on Friday. We just have to keep kids healthy. Our quarterback has only played there five weeks now. We're going to have to throw the ball against Beloit, so we'll have some things to work on. That's going to be the focus this week in practice." "We have to click on all cylanders," Thompson said. "They are a pretty big, tough team," Standefer said. "We're going to have to hit it hard in practice to prepare for them. They're pretty good, but we're pretty good too. We have to stop the run better. Our line is pretty tough. If we can stop the run, we should do pretty good."

Basic Research and International Spillovers
This paper discriminates between basic and developmental research when estimating international research spillovers between nine OECD nations. Using panel cointegration techniques, the estimates show that basic research generates much larger international spillovers than developmental research. Developmental research in turn appears more easily appropriated by the research performer, and thus has a stronger effect domestically. These results suggest growth models should incorporate the firm's choice between basic and developmental research. More importantly, since basic research receives a large proportion of its funding from public sources, the finding of large international spillovers from basic research suggests current public research policies should be reevaluated. The results support the argument in favor of increased international coordination of basic research policies.
