Mas Amedda
this wiki
- "This is a crisis. The Senate must vote to give the chancellor emergency powers."
- ―Mas Amedda
Mas Amedda was a male Chagrian who served as Vice Chair of the Galactic Republic's Senate under Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum and Sheev Palpatine and later as the Grand Vizier of the Imperial Ruling Council and the second Emperor of the Galactic Empire. He was known for his booming voice, which he used to call for order when shouting matches erupted in the Galactic Senate. He continued to hold his position once Palpatine transformed the Galactic Republic into the Galactic Empire. After the formation of the Empire, Amedda became Galactic Emperor Palpatine's Grand Vizier and head of the Imperial Ruling Council. After the death of Palpatine over Endor, Amedda acted as a proxy Emperor but held little real power within the Empire beyond Coruscant.
Amedda, as Vice Chair and later Grand Vizier, was one of the few beings in the galaxy who knew some of Palpatine's darkest secrets.
- "Order! We shall have order!"
- ―Mas Amedda
A Chagrian male hailing from Champala,[1] Mas Amedda managed to rise in the ranks of the Galactic Republic's Senate on Coruscant to become Vice Chancellor to Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum by the time of the Invasion of Naboo.[3]
Invasion of NabooEdit
During the invasion, Amedda presided over the motion of a Vote of No Confidence in Valorum's leadership, as requested by Queen Amidala of Naboo following the Senate's inaction in response to the Trade Federation's occupation of the planet and as suggested by Senator Sheev Palpatine. As the chamber was filled with protests from the Senators, Amedda called for order, silencing most Senators, as Valorum sat down on his chair, defeated.[3] Following Senator Palpatine's election to the chancellorship, Amedda continued to serve as Vice Chair in the Galactic Senate,[5][2] and was often seen around the Chancellor and his administrative aide, Sly Moore.[5][6]
Separatist CrisisEdit
At some point during the Separatist Crisis, Mas Amedda created the concept for a Republic propaganda piece titled Strength and Unity. This piece was intended to combat the image of human-centrism that much of the Core-created messaging conveyed to the galaxy with a diverse array of an image of a wide array of Loyalist alien species. Amedda's mistake, however, was including himself in the piece. This lead to a scandal in which Amedda was accused of narcissism and more, causing the intended message to be lost in the messaging.[7]
In the final days of the Separatist Crisis and following an assassination attempt on Senator Amidala, Amedda escorted Amidala and her fellowship to the Chancellor's office, where the Senator discussed the likely involvement of Count Dooku with Jedi Masters Mace Windu, Ki-Adi-Mundi and Yoda, only for Palpatine to suggest that the Jedi Council sent Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Padawan, Anakin Skywalker, to bodyguard her.[5]
Soon enough, Amedda also presided the session in which Representative of Naboo, Jar Jar Binks, proposed to give emergency powers to the Chancellor, whose first act with such authority was to create the Grand Army of the Republic to counter the increasing threat of the Confederacy of the Independent Systems, using clones from Kamino as discovered by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. Along with Chancellor Palpatine and other senators, Amedda oversaw the launching of the massive clone army from Coruscant, marking the beginning of a galaxy-spanning conflict known as the Clone Wars.[5]
The Clone WarsEdit
Dealing with Duchess SatineEdit
- "You can't keep them reined in, obviously, so we will."
- ―Republic Vice Chair Mas Amedda to New Mandalorians Duchess Satine Kryze
During a session of the wartime Senate, Amedda presided over the chamber as the Senators debated the potential threat that the Death Watch terrorist organization posed to the people of Mandalore. Despite the protests of Mandalore's Duchess Satine Kryze, the Senate was prepared to vote to allow the Republic to occupy the planet in order to resist the Death Watch. Amedda placed a datacard into a holoprojector that displayed a hologram of Mandalore's Deputy Minister Jerec calling for Republic assistance, though the message had in fact been doctored. Kryze was later attacked, and after being granted an audience with Palpatine, was told by Amedda and the Supreme Chancellor that the assassination attempt proved that Mandalore needed the Republic's aid. Amedda expressed his belief that Kryze was unable to keep the Death Watch reigned in by herself.[8]
When Senator Amidala of Naboo uncovered Minister Jerec's real holorecording, requesting that the Republic leave Mandalore alone, Amedda and Palpatine presided over a Senate session that rescinded the Senate's earlier vote to occupy the planet. Kryze, Kenobi, Skywalker, and Amidala later discussed the outcome of the vote with Amedda and Palpatine in the Chancellor's office, and the latter three discussed the logistics of ratifying the Senate's vote, with Palpatine and Amedda apologizing for their actions.[8]
Zillo Beast rampantEdit
Amedda attended Palpatine when the Supreme Chancellor welcomed Skywalker, Windu, the astromech droid R2-D2, and the giant Zillo Beast of Malastare to Coruscant; Palpatine was eager to study the beast's fearsome armor despite the Jedi's discomfort with keeping the beast on the capital. Palpatine assigned Doctor Sionver Boll to the task of study, and brought Amedda with him to check on her progress. Back in the Supreme Chancellor's office, Skywalker and Amidala appealed Palpatine's decision to kill the creature, but Amedda expressed his opinion that uncovering the secrets to its armor was for the greater good.[9]
Reduced military spending billEdit
Some time later, Amedda and Palpatine presided over a session that saw Amidala present a bill proposing the cutting of military spending, and soon after attended the funeral of Amidala's ally in the Senate, Onaconda Farr of Rodia, who had been poisoned by his aide Lolo Purs. Amidala's bill was voted down, and Amedda was present outside of the Senate Chamber when Palpatine and Amidala discussed the outcome.[10]
Festival of LightEdit
Amedda also accompanied the Supreme Chancellor to Naboo to celebrate the Festival of Light. During the festival, Palpatine was the victim of a kidnapping attempt by Count Dooku and a group of bounty hunters.[11]
Jedi Temple bombingEdit
At one point, Amedda was summoned to Palpatine's office and was asked to prepare him his shuttle, so as to leave for Mandalore at once.[12] Around that time, Amedda was present at a funeral for Jedi who were killed in the Jedi Temple bombing. Shortly after the funeral's conclusion, Amedda conversed with Chancellor Palpatine, Jedi Masters Yoda, Windu, Koon, and Sinube, as well as Republic Navy admirals Yularen and Coburn, in one of the Jedi Temple halls.[13] Soon after, he served a role in the trial of the Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano. Amedda handed the jury's verdict to Palpatine, but before he could read it, Skywalker entered with Barriss Ofee, who confessed her crimes and proved Tano to be innocent.[14]
Inhibitor chip conspiracyEdit
Amedda would greet Jedi Master Shaak Ti and Kaminoan scientist Nala Se, who were escorting clone trooper "Fives" to plead his case directly to Supreme Chancellor Palpatine on Coruscant. Unbeknownst to them, Palpatine was secretly responsible for the inhibitor chip conspiracy, and was sure to ratify Se's false claims that the chips were merely to make clones less aggressive and more compliant to orders. As Palpatine asked for some time alone with Fives, Amedda escorted the Jedi Master and Nala Se out of the room, only to return to the Chancellor's side once he was attacked by the clone, who had become aware of the Chancellor's darker side and wanted to warn the Jedi.[15]
Fall of the RepublicEdit
- "Senator Organa… the Supreme Chancellor requests your presence at a special session of Congress. He is expecting you."
- ―Vice Chair Amedda, to Senator Organa
Following the Battle of Coruscant, Amedda accompanied the Chancellor in the Galaxies Opera House to a performance of the Mon Calamari play Squid Lake. However, Palpatine dismissed him and his other aides upon the arrival of Skywalker, to whom he told the story of Darth Plagueis, his Sith Master, as part of his plan to seduce Skywalker to the dark side of the Force. Shortly afterwards, following the Jedi's attempt to arrest Palpatine, the Chancellor would begin a purge of the Jedi Order with Order 66 and ordering the Attack on the Jedi Temple. After this Vice Chair Amedda would recall all senators to a special session of the Senate, where he stood next to Palpatine who proclaimed that the Republic would be transformed into the Galactic Empire to ensure security and stability after the Clone Wars and the defeat of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the so-called Jedi rebellion with the Jedi Order all but destroyed.[6]
Age of the EmpireEdit
Rise of the New OrderEdit
- "Tell Captain Kagi to prepare my shuttle for immediate takeoff."
"Yes master."
"I sense Lord Vader is in danger."
- ―Emperor Palpatine, to Grand Vizier Mas Amedda
Silently, Amedda saw as the newly-proclaimed Emperor conferred with his new apprentice, Skywalker (recently re-christened as "Darth Vader"), that he had already eliminated the Separatist Council on Mustafar and the Emperor ordered Vader to send a shutdown signal to the entire Separatist Droid Army. However, when Grand Master Yoda appeared to duel the Emperor, who attacked the small Jedi Master, Amedda left the room only to reunite with the Emperor once Yoda fled the Senate Chamber. While he oversaw Yoda's search by the clone troopers, he followed the Emperor's orders to tell Captain Kagi to prepare him a shuttle, so that he could go to the Mustafar system to rescue Vader.[6]
Grand Vizier of the EmpireEdit
- "We all do our part for the Empire."
- ―Grand Vizier Mas Amedda
Five years later, Amedda still served the Emperor, now under the position of Grand Vizier of the Imperial Ruling Council, becoming one of the Emperor's most valued advisers, as well as the Empire's most formidable intermediary. After the Emperor had retired from public life, Amedda and the rest of the Ruling Council took to dispatching processions of Imperial skylimos to maintain an illusion that the Emperor still moved about in public.[4]
When the Imperial Security Bureau reported the discovery of a cache of communications devices capable of a HoloNet sabotage on Murkhana, Amedda recommended the ISB to open the investigation to discussion with the Ruling Council and Imperial Intelligence.[4]
Three weeks later, following an attack on Sentinel Base, Amedda contacted Moff Wilhuff Tarkin to tell him of the Emperor's request of his presence on Coruscant, but revealed nothing as to why Palpatine wanted their reunion. On Tarkin's arrival to the Imperial Palace, Amedda received and led the Moff to a meeting with Vader, who after a short conversation led Tarkin to the Emperor. Along with Vader and Tarkin, Amedda was later present at a meeting of Ruling Council and the heads of the Security Bureau and Naval Intelligence Agency concerning the Murkhana discovery, presided by the Emperor himself, until Amedda used his staff to finish the session up, claiming that the Emperor would take the matter under advisement. Later, Amedda informed Tarkin of his mission to Murkhana alongside Vader, though the Chagrian told the Moff nothing of who was in command of the mission, and later, told the Emperor about Tarkin's displeasure at the assignment.[4]
Once Tarkin's ship, the Carrion Spike was shipjacked by insurgents and used to attack Galidraan Station, Amedda and Ars Dangor were dispatched by the Emperor to meet with the intelligence officers Harus Ison, Dodd Rancit and Terrinald Screed, where he was angered at their recommendation to let the Carrion go and told them of the threat of dissidence, when the report of an attack on Lucazec arrived. As the situation progressed, Amedda continued to meet with the Ruling Council and the Emperor, who eventually asked him to summon the ISB agents responsible for the Murkhana discovery. As the Emperor interrogated Bracchia and Stellan, Amedda, 11-4D and a pair of Royal Guards listened to Sidious, who discovered the dubious involvement of Vice Admiral Rancit with the insurgents.[4]
Fourteen years after the rise of the Empire, Amedda continued to hold the position of Grand Vizier. At one point, as the Emperor was unavailable, Amedda received Governor Arihnda Pryce from Lothal to discuss Lothal's industrial and mining sectors on her visit to Coruscant.[16]
Galactic Civil WarEdit
Theft of the ImperialisEdit
- "You do understand what will happen to you if you do not recover that ship, Commander Pasqual."
"Of course, my Lord Amedda."
- ―Amedda warns Pasqual not to fail in recovering the Emperor's ship
Some time after the Empire's Death Star was destroyed by the Alliance to Restore the Republic, a rebel organization created to fight back against the Empire, at the Battle of Yavin. During the turmoil, Amedda was contacted on Coruscant by Commander Pasqual, informing him that the Emperor's pleasure craft, Imperialis, which was docked at Sienar Fleet Systems Orbital Shipyard CC-24 above the Colonies world of Castell, had been stolen. Amedda ordered Pasqual to recover the ship at once, reminding him that he had already failed in keeping the ship secured. Amedda went before Emperor Palpatine, and informed him of his ship's theft.[17]
Keeping the Empire togetherEdit
- "You...you're serious. You want me to surrender... the entire Galactic Empire?"
"That's right."
"I don't..."
"You don't have the power, do you?"
"So, get it back. And then bring a treaty to our door."
- ―Mas Amedda and Princess Leia Organa on Velusia
Amedda had the massive task of keeping the Empire together after Palpatine's death at the Battle of Endor[18] acting as a proxy Emperor but in reality held little real influence beyond the throneworld of Coruscant. However his reign was troubled from the beginning as it was met with whole sectors of Coruscant started to revolt as he began to be entrenched in government districts. Fleet Admiral Gallius Rax refused to allow Grand Admiral Rae Sloane of the Imperial Navy to send reinforcements to Amedda as the throneworld had no place in his vision of a renewed Empire. Amedda would in his despair and desperation as his powers and influence faded with Rax replacing him as de facto emperor and losing control over most of Coruscant would seek to turn himself over to New Republic as he saw himself as a prize and that there was no target greater than he was, eventually making his way to a meeting with Chancellor Mon Mothma and Princess and Senator Leia Organa on Velusia, his plan would fail as they refused to accept him as a prisoner and instead demanded he find a way to gain full control of the Galactic Empire and sign a full surrender.[19]
After returning back to Coruscant, Amedda considered suicide by jumping off of one of the Imperial Palace's balconies. However as he made his way back into his office he realized that Sloane was sat in his office and initially thought she had come to kill him. The Grand Admiral however handed him a picture of Amedda himself, Palpatine, Vice Admirals Screed and Rancit, Wullf Yularen and a young boy and asked to know about the picture. He reached for his blaster, Sloane revealed that she had it. Remembering Mothma's words about him just being an administrator, Amedda decided that to gain the Empire back in his grip he would need to strike an alliance with Sloane. Confirming Sloane's thoughts about the picture, that it was indeed Gallius Rax as the young boy in the picture, Amedda offered Sloane a way to find out who Rax was and where he came from, and in return for the name of the location where she could find this information Amedda wanted to become a part of Sloane's Empire. After Sloane agreed, Amedda revealed the droids that contained the information Sloane sought were aboard the wreckage of the Imperalis on Quantxi, the junk moon of Ord Mantell.[19]
Eventually Amedda represented the Galactic Empire and signed the Galactic Concordance with the New Republic which ended the Galactic Civil War.[7]
Personality and traitsEdit
Amedda's booming voice often called for order when the partisan nature of the Republic's government degenerated into pointless bickering. In a gesture of authority, he would often punctuate such calls with a flicker of his long, forked tongue.[2]
Behind the scenesEdit
Mas Amedda was played by Jerome Blake in The Phantom Menace, David Bowers in Attack of the Clones, and by both Blake and Bowers in Revenge of the Sith. In Star Wars: The Clone Wars, he was voiced by Stephen Stanton.

Above normal temperatures coupled with unusually dry vegetation have prompted the Angeles National Forest to raise its Fire Danger Level from "High" to "Very High" effective Tuesday, July 2.
The Forest has taken this step to enhance public awareness that fire-risk conditions are increasing as temperatures rise, forest grasses and brush dry out. The Live Fuel Moisture readings have been declining, grasses at lower elevations have cured and recent fire activity has increased in and around the forest.
Despite the change, there are no new campfire restrictions. Open wood and charcoal fires will still be permitted in approved "developed" campgrounds and picnic areas where a steel ring or stoves are provided. Propane or jelled gas stoves and grills are permitted in non-developed areas with a valid California Campfire Permit. Smoking allowed in enclosed vehicles or developed recreation sites only.
All fireworks are prohibited on national forest lands. Forest visitors should check spark arrestors (required year-round) on off-road vehicles, chain saws and other equipment with internal-combustion engines to ensure they are in working order. Drivers in the forest should stay on designated roads and never park on dry brush or grass, to avoid the risk of starting a fire. The majority of all wildfires on the Angeles are human caused.

I purchased this tour for someone else. I live in the US and I purchased this tour for 3 people who live in Bohol. They absolutely loved the tour and still rave about it. They enjoyed themselves immensely and saw parts of Bohol that they had never seen. They were very satisfied and said that the tour guide was very nice, helpful and knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see all of Bohol.
April 2016
March 2016
We had a great tour guide and the experience of seeing the chocolate hills and the Tarsier's was just breath taken. The man made forest reminded us of back home in the USA. We did not get to go on the river lunch for it was Good Friday and everything was closed for the holiday, but we did get to eat at CHOPS and that was wonderful. To see all the ruins of the old churches due to the earthquake was just a sadden experience. I would recommend this trip to all My family and I cant wait to do it again.
January 2016
An amazing tour!
Ondoy our driver and tour guide was knowledgeable, courteous, and prompt.
Every stop and attraction was great. It was just the right amount of time spent at each attraction.
Will definitely recommend this trip to anyone visiting Bohol.

Police Impounds Illegal Bikes Caught Entering Restricted Roads
After the grace period for the electric bicycles have ended, traffic police started impounded bicycles that have been illegally entering the roads starting yesterday. So far the police have confiscated more than nine hundred bicycles.
To implement the new rule, police dispatched 400 officers in 50 inspection stations. The police used personal digital assistants that will be used to check electric bicycles whether it has been registered for approval to be used in the roads. However several riders disapproved the actions.
One bike user said that he use his bicycle to bring his wife to work and he obeys the traffic rules and doesn't use it as a taxi service still his bike was confiscated. Traffic police said that they are not restricting electric bicycles used for certain industries such as utilities deliveries and postal services so it won't use too much disruption. Electric bicycles used for these services will be painted yellow, blue and green according to the industry they will be used.
Several riders are happy that the number of electric bicycles have been reduced making them safer while on the road. Electric bicycle users that are caught and fined three times or have cause accidents that involve injuries or death will be disqualified and will not be allowed to use or rent bicycles.

CSR and Mentor Graphics have announced a partnership to deliver an 'out of the box' solution for OEMs looking to deliver in-car wireless connectivity. CSR Synergy software will come pre-integrated in future releases of Mentor Graphics' GENIVI Linux compliant Automotive Technology Platform (ATP) to provide a software solution for a range of wireless connectivity technologies. These include Bluetooth, Bluetooth Smart and Wi-Fi.
The partnership will deliver an automotive grade connected platform for developing in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) solutions. It enables systems with features such as in-car internet, smartphone tethering via Mirrorlink, hot-spot support via Wi-Fi, wideband hands-free calling and CD-like audio streaming via aptX over Bluetooth in addition to Bluetooth Smart support for emerging use cases such as keyless entry and temperature and pressure sensors. By collaborating, CSR and Mentor Graphics hope to significantly reduce OEM engineering efforts, allowing them more time to focus on differentiating their designs.
Introduced to the sector nine years ago, CSR says that its Synergy is one of the most widely used connectivity solutions on the market, having been integrated into many infotainment and telematics platforms by Tier One suppliers. The solution is continually updated to add the latest Bluetooth, Bluetooth Smart and Wi-Fi use cases. It is also regularly tested to ensure the highest levels of device compatibility with the latest smartphones.
"Consumers expect in-vehicle wireless connectivity from whatever segment of the market they're buying from," says Thomas Carmody, Head of Connectivity Marketing at CSR. "In addition, new wireless connectivity use cases continue to emerge, putting extra pressure on OEMs to deliver these features in an ever reducing market window. CSR recognises the need to collaborate where possible with other leading companies in the automotive infotainment market to reduce the engineering burden required to support wireless connectivity. With IVI designers moving to standard open source platforms such as GENIVI Linux, we believe the combination of our high performance Bluetooth and Wi-Fi solutions with Mentor Graphics'

Today India is self-sufficient in building nuclear power stations and has gained mastery over the entire nuclear fuel cycle. In the course of operation of the various nuclear facilities, the primary safety objective is to protect the plant personnel, the people at large and the environment from radiation. Regular environmental assessment is necessary to ensure this. Measurement of radiation levels and other pollutants constitute the most important constituent of environmental assessment. For this purpose, Environmental Survey Laboratories (ESLs) have been established at each nuclear site to maintain a constant vigil on the environment in and around these facilities. These laboratories collect the base-line environmental data before an activity starts in a new location and thereafter carry out a systematic monitoring of environment for radioactivity levels during operation of the installation and ensure that there is no build up of radioactivity in the environment over and above the pre-operational natural levels.
The primary aim of the environmental monitoring programme is to demonstrate the compliance with the radiation exposure limits set by Atomic Energy Regulatory Board (AERB) for the members of the public. The ESLs collect data on the levels of external radiation dose and concentration of radioactivity due to the natural sources present in the environment. These include monitoring of Uranium, thorium and their daughter products formed due to their radioactive decay, Potassium (K-40) etc. Radionuclides released into the environment due to weapon tests conducted by several countries over the years (also called global weapon fall-out) are also measured. These include Sr-90 and Cs-137.
The above mentioned radioactivity measurements are carried out in a number of environmental matrices such as air, water, silt, sediment, soil, vegetation, vegetables, milk, grass, crops, fruits, fish, goat thyroid, meat and other dietary items. These samples can be divided into three categories, namely:
About 1000-2500 samples per year are collected and analysed from
terrestrial, aquatic and atmospheric environments from public domain in an area upto 30 km of the plant. The samples are selected on the basis of potential pathways of exposure to humans. The number and type of samples and sampling frequency can be site-specific depending on the nature of operations, aspects related to utilisation of the local environment, existence of population clusters and related demographic data.

DEADLIEST TORNADO SEASON IN A DECADE - The USA has been ravaged through mid-May by a near-record number of tornadoes that has pushed the death toll - including 47 killer twisters over the weekend - to a 10-YEAR HIGH. Stunned survivors picked through the little that was left of their communities Sunday after tornadoes tore across the Plains and South, killing at least 22 people in three states and leaving behind a trail of destruction and stories of loss. At least 15 people died in southwestern Missouri. In the fading mining town of Picher, Okla., at least six people were killed, and at least one person died in storms in Georgia.

Bunny Love
July 1st, 2009
Awkward Rule # 479: Easter.
(submitted by Jack)
Grandma is thinking: "Rabbit? Rabbit? We don't need no stinking rabbit!"
pay for this sort of thing, rather
I can't believe people still pay this sort of thing.
your nobunny till somebunny loves you!
The bunny is really a tragic character in this awkward moment. Uncle Frank had been maimed in an incident involving a lawnmower. The bunny costume was the only way Grandma would let him in the picture. She didn't think he'd actually agree to it. She had been the one behind the lawnmower. It's rather awful.
mom, in the white dress is smokin'
Ok…I didn't read any other postings cause I wanted to be "fresh". This is my first comment ever and I am a regular here. Compound bows and VanHellsings(SP?) and all.
The wife was sure that this is what "is done". The husband does whatever she says, cause he knows to keep her happy. They included the grandparents cause the wife thought it would be nice and Grandmaw did it cause she still wants to see her son and grandchildren. She draged Grandpaw by his ears, but now that he is here he is making the best of it. The only things you really see at first glance, cause everything else is dark or blue, is the silly creepy bunny and the gorgeous wife, maybe that's the point? I don't really think it is funny. Just really really indicative of no clue. Ok…maybe a bit funny.
Easter bunnies are almost as creepy as clowns.
That bunny is creepy.
Good thing it wasn't blue shirt day.They might blend into the background
I have the same picture of my kids with my bro-in-law who played the Easter Bunny at the local mall.
I think grandma has the right idea.
halle berry halle berry
"Mommy? Mommy, who invited Harvey?"
Grandma is mad because she knows how many meals will come from that huge rabbit but all her family wants to do is take a picture.
Either everybody wears that hat, or nobody wears the hat.
the girl in the blue looks like the is snarling..
happily snarling..
that rabbit better watch it!
The Grandma looks a bit like one of my Dad's cousins.
As the matriarch, Grandma really thought that she should be in the center of the photo, not the damn bunny.
I think grandma was pissed that her grand daughter stole her bonnet… which by the way is too small for her head.
Grandpa's thinking…
"I fought in WWII for THIS?!?!"
Look out bunny, Granny's got her tiger-print on… her claws might just come out!
I would love to spike up a otherwise boring familyphoto/Photoshoot with some bunnies.
G-Ma looks so pissed and unamused. Rabbit's stealing her spotlight.
LOL Grandma: "That big bunny stole my thunder gosh darn it all!!"
….or should I say "stole my thumper"….thank U I am here all week!
im confused
Replace the white rabbit with the rabbit from the movie Donnie Darko and the family has a problem.
Sesame Street song:
One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn't belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?
One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn't belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?
I'd pick grandma . . . she's the least into the photo, anyway. Bunny seems to be seriously enjoying himself!
Is that one girl wearing a wedding dress?
Hey, it's Harvey!
Make the bunny go away…make the bunny go away! Mommy!!!
Awkward family photography 101: "Be sure to include the beloved family pet."
Jimmy Stewart!
my god, that thing is horrible! why, why?!
That little boy looks justifiably creeped out. If I had walked in to this photo shoot, I think
I would have run screaming in the other dicretion.
The little boy couldn't run screaming in the other direction because he has NO FEET!!
That is just too much. I can't even look at your post – I will start laughing again.
Freakin hilarious!
Oh my god, HAHAHAHA man colorfulkate, that is the funniest thing i've ever seen someone say on the internet!!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAH no feet, i almost died laughing looking at that (also, this is a picture of my family, haha im not kidding)
Grandma's got no love for the bunny.
It left Cocoa Puffs in her Easter basket. Or so she thought.
Grandmother does not approve.
And it looks like Grandma just wants the hell outta there.
Those are some crazy-big easter eggs in that basket!!
OMG! My friend wore that SAME white dress to a dance….. IN 1993!!
I had the same dress too! Except mine was black on the bottom with the white lace on top. I think I wore it for some christmas party in 5th or 6th grade (ie early 90's)
Did anyone else immediately think of Donnie Darko when they saw this picture?
I did! >_>
YES!! Haha and it's about as freaking scary! Dark holes for eyes… watch out for it coming through a mirror near you this easter!
Awesome you got it
I just have to ask why only one person has their Easter bonnet on????
I was wondering what was on that girls head…
I dont think she's aware she has that on her head….
Well, Clarice, have the bunnies stopped screaming?
and i thought frank from donnie darko was the scariest bunny i'd ever seen…
True dat
that's creepier than the bunny from Silent Hill
Grandma's looking away because she's resisting the urge to skin the bunny and wear it for the next awkard family photo…
What a terrifying photograph!
so much going on here…besides the psychotic looking Easter bunny. The grandparents and junior in their Sunday best are ok, but Dad and Sis seem to think it's Casual Friday, and it seems Mom just pulled out her old prom dress from 1986. Yeah, it's fairly awkward.
"and it seems Mom just pulled out her old prom dress from 1986."
Yeah, but Mom is still completely hot in it.
That is one happy bunny!
That's because you don't see where his right hand is!
Niceeee! XD hahah Good one!
Grandma (I assume) on the right looks like she's refusing to look in the Bunny's direction. Too funny.
I agree! Gramma looks pi$$ed and is totally not acknowleging the bunny is there.
thats the first thing i noticed, granma is totally pissed off! I bet she told off the photographer 3 seconds after this was snapped.
Gramma is passive-aggressive: instead of refusing to pose, she goes all animal print with the clothes instead of bending to traditional spring pastels and flower prints. We're probably related.
Whoa, Grandma's pissed! Her face says, "Of all cockamamie things…I can't believe we're taking a family photo with this gigantic, @#$%-ing rabbit!"
"What rabbit?"
..rabbit?? where, i don´t see a rabbit…
There's a rabbit in this picture somewhere? Where?
Rabbit? Seriously? I don't see any . . .
Wait . . . who am I kidding? the 4rth time isn't funny . . . Must recover . . . Got it!
Hey, you know Grandma's got to be thinking, "Where's my crossbow?"
this picture would be infinitely more awkward if it were the van helsings easter photo.
sure is – his name is Harvey. (doesn't dad look a lot like Jimmy stewart?)
That's not a rabbit. That's Uncle Earl.
hahahah good one stacy…

Discussion in '2005 Archive' started by KenH, Nov 22, 2005.
LINK to Remarks by Senator Biden
I watched the speech on C-SPAN and thought it was spot on.
I would not go so far as to say that his speech was "spot on." According to Senator Biden:
Here he is toeing the Democratic Party line (or at least the line of the more liberal and vocal few in leadership positions). They, the members of Congress, saw the same data as the White House. They agreed that Iraq was a treat to U.S. national security. They voted to give the President authority to deploy our troops and to go to war in Iraq. There has not been a single shred of evidence provided by anyone making such claims which supports the idea that the White House "cooked the books," lied, or somehow twisted the data in order to mislead the American people into going to war in Iraq. There have only been repeated political accusations thrown out by a handful of Democratic Senators (all of whom are hoping to make political hay for the Democratic Party in the upcoming 2008 Presidential election). Please note that Senator Biden provides no evidence to back up this claim either. He only inserted a politically charged statement into his speech in an attempt to make the White House look bad.
Next Biden asserts:
So the fact that Saddam offered a $25,000.00 reward for the families of Palestinian suicide bombers in Israel does not point to Iraq being a haven (read that as a source of) terrorism? Likewise, let's ask the surviving family members of Kurdish Iraqis if they feel it was terrorism when Saddam killed thousands of them with mustard gas attacks. Oh yeah… and let's ignore the mass graves of Saddam's Shi'a and other political enemies (that's not terrorism). Oh and never mind the fact that Saddam used his military forces to invade, rape, pillage and take over his neighbors in Kuwait (that's not terrorism).
Then Biden says:
Why would he use the term AWOL in a speech about Iraq? Was this little jab strategically placed here in reference to another unproven political charge against President Bush's military service record (can you say Dan Rather)?
These are just a few of the political side-track problems I saw in his speech. However, I do agree that Biden does make some good points about the need to help Iraq stand on its own two feet and be responsible for treating all it citizens on equal terms. However, his speech is littered with political rhetoric designed to push his party's agenda with an eye toward the 2008 Presidential election.
This is the truth!
This is the truth! </font>[/QUOTE]Where is the evidence to back up that claim?
Most of what I read in the quotes from BB's post of Biden is just more revisionist history and DEM lies. Biden is a nutjob who lost all credibility a long time ago with me. There were terrorists found in Iraq. There were terrorists training camps. Saddam was a terrorist himself against his own people. Bush did not lie and the DEMS have no proof of that. It is all simply political hogwash. All they are doing is trying to demoralize the troops and turn this into another defeat like Vietnam was. And they are starting to suceed according to Oliver North who constantly visits the troops at home and abroad. The troops are starting to wonder if all this rhetoric means we are going to cut and run like cowards. The the cowards in the Democrat Party have their way, we will cut and run, and then they will spend the next three years covering the ensuing slaughter that would occur and condemning us for abandoning the Iraqis who stood up and fought for freedom before the job was done, and because we will have emboldened the terrorists to become more violent. The DEMS are stupid idiots when it comes to foreign policy, which is why I never want one in office during war time.
Joseph Botwinick
Biden is a stuffed shirt looking for face time. Even in the realm of politics it is rare to see someone with so little knowledge and thought speak so much.
"On" in spots might be a better description and very few spots at that.
Like I said, Senator Biden was on target with his assessment of the war.
"Political Solutions
First, we need to build a political consensus, starting with the Constitution, that gives the Kurds, Shi'a, and Sunnis a stake in keeping Iraq together. Iraq cannot be salvaged by military might alone.
Last month, the Constitution passed overwhelmingly. But the vast majority of Sunni Arabs voted "no." Unless changes are made by next spring, it will become a document that divides rather than unites Iraq."
Biden seems to be of the opinion that "we" should effect those changes. He seems to be forgetting that the Sunnis chose not to participate in the constitutional process and that process belongs to the Iraqis, not us.
Armchair quarterbacks are all pretty much alike. Biden just has more practice than most.
Rare? I see it every time the president of the secretary of defense speaks.
"Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events".
Sir Winston Churchill
Like I said, Senator Biden was on target with his assessment of the war. </font>[/QUOTE]I know you said that. But people can say anything. Biden was partially right, but he is mostly wrong in his handling of it. One doesn't need to be a genius to figure that out.
This is pretty cut and dried. We have been here before 30 years ago when America didn't have the will to win and decided to run. Vietnam and SE Asia has suffered for 30 years because of it. We should be smart enough to learn from history.
Biden is the one who said before the war that he thought Bush could make a good case for war, but he hadn't done it. Biden is a prime example of an opportunist who will say whatever he thinks will make people happy. He is always lookign for approval from others. He is arrogant and unthinking about too many things.
Rare? I see it every time the president of the secretary of defense speaks. </font>[/QUOTE]Nice one ... ... But you know that isn't true. They simply disagree with your thoughts apparenlty, and therefore you accuse them of not thinking. I can assure you that they have put plenty of time and effort into researching and thinking about this issue ... way more than you have.
Pastor Larry, I am convinced you are wrong concerning Senator Biden, but I know that there is nothing I can say that will convince you of your error.
I am also convinced that not only is Biden a great Senator, but he would also make a great Vice-President running with Hillary Clinton in 2008!
You are certainly welcome to be convinced of whatever you like. This isn't the first time we have had a difference of opinion, and I am sure it won't be the last.
But remember, Biden tried running once already and failed miserably. As I recall, he plagiarized his dissertation and got caught. He is a New Englander and if Clinton got the nomination (something unlikely, IMO), she would not pick another New Englander, a rank liberal such as Biden. She would need to pick a moderate candidate to appeal to the swing voters, but that's a few years off. Let's let it ride for a while and see what happens.
Have a great day Terry.
The 'cry babies' who think 2,000 men and women lost in this war are too many need to think more. 6,000 men were killed on the beaches of France in W.W. II. on the first day of the invasion. They were Americans, Canadians, and British forces, etc.
The problem is the Biden types want to keep us safe for democracy and attacks like the Twin Towers without defending us from terrorists.
The terrorists have been busy well before the turn of this century. Remember the 300 or 600 Marines that were sleeping when they drove a car into the gates and blew up our soldiers.
Let's not forget the past.
Biden, Shummer, and Clinton are like 'paper cut outs' they are all socialist __________.
Young Americans have not been taught world history with all of the stark facts.
Peace with no war; it does not work like this.
Incorrect. You can judge by comparing what comes out of their mouths by the actual state of reality. When you do that, you will find that they have put much thinking into it. You simply bought the other side of the issue. The fact that people disagree with you doesn't mean that they aren't thinking. It means they are thinking differently. So you made a false charge based on your political biases.
Yes indeed, and you have aptly described the problems with your position. You started with a false premise -- that Bush isn't a thinker. Any evidence to the contrary is dismissed by you automatically, thus shielding yourself from contrary information. It is an easy way for you to be dogmatic, but much harder for you to be right.
When you look at history of the past 10 years, every single political leader in this country agreed with Bush. Now, would you really have us believe that none of them thought? Today, those guys including Biden are running from past comments as fast as they can for political reasons.
But in the end, you are correct in your assertions about erroneous premises and conclusions, and that assertion truly describes your position.

LONDON -- In today's video, David Kuo and Sonia Rehill discuss a common mistake that high-yield investors make when building their portfolio, and that's to aim for companies with the highest yield. Instead, David recommends that investors do their homework, research the company's track record, and look for a consistent rate of dividend increases. The three examples he provides are Admiral Group (LSE:ADM), Next (LSE:NXT), and Royal Dutch Shell (LSE:RDSB).
One investor who always does his homework is Neil Woodford, the ace high-yield investor who has beaten the market during the five-, 10-, and 15-year periods to 2011!

This is an excellent documentary detailing the genesis and ill-rewarded
career of Jad and David Fair, and their pursuit of becoming the best rock
and roll band ever.
Half Jap fans will love the behind the scenes stories of how the band came to be, including an amazing vignette about how they signed their first record contract.
But the viewer totally unaware of Half Japanese and the strange influence they've had on American underground culture will also appreciate this film for the story of two goofy, naiive kids who decided they could make music, regardless of everything but intent.
There are some nice appearances by Velvet Underground founder Mo Tucker, Penn Jillette, and the guitar superhero Don Fleming. Sorely missed, however, are comments from jazz sax vanguard (and frequent Half Japanese contributor) John Zorn and Half Japanese's finest producer, Kramer.
The only weak spot in the whole film is the slightly tedious yammerings about poisonous major record labels by kooky music savants Gerard Cosloy and Byron Coley (Coley, who seems to imply that the major labels had somehow gotten their compeuppance in the post-Dokken junkyard of the early 90's.) Clearly Half Japanese is superior to the mind-numbing crap spewed onto the airwaves, but turning Jad into the poster child for independent label struggles is probably not a good fit. Jad himself has his eyes set on writing the most popular rock song ever, which would be hard to do in a 3 person mail room at some indie label hangout.
Indeed Jad and company deserve far more recognition than they ever have gotten in this country. It's sad that we need an excellent film like this to certify Half Japanese culturally, as if without it Half Jap would fade away into oblivion.
I missed this film when it played the Toronto International Film Festival
and had found it extremely difficult to locate on video. I recently tracked
down a copy on DVD and was floored by the content.
The film is sincere, informed, and very well put together all around. Filled with anecdotes and facts from HJ's history, featuring interviews with Jad and David, Don Fleming, G. Cosley, Maureen Tucker, J & D's Parents, and others.
If you like independent music--or aren't familiar with the genre outside of having heard it exists--check out this film. It will be well worth your time. The DVD also contains their "Live In Hell" video, which is a lot of fun.
I had heard of the band Half Japanese before seeing this film in the out-of-print Spin Alternative Record Guide, but nothing written about them could prepare me for this amazing documentary. Picture this: two brothers from Ohio get the bug to start a band. Neither Jad or David Fair has any clue as to how to play their instruments, but in 1980, they ink a deal to release a three-LP debut box set from an English label. Over the next ten years, Half Japanese earns enormous accolades, especially among other musicians, ironically. I can't think of how anybody could possibly watch this film all the way through and not come to endear Jad Fair. The best scenes are the interviews with Jad and David's parents ("Our house is the birthplace of punk rock") and a staged interlude where the two brothers explain where why they started writing songs about ghosts and dead pirates. You owe it to yourself to see this movie.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Truth is stranger than fiction, but fiction pretending to be truth can
be funnier. Or at least, that's the earnest hope for this
dry-as-melba-toast mockumentary. Taking on the highly ironic tones of
the independent hipster scene, the movie purports to tell the story of
Jed and David Fair as the band Half-Japanse, from parents-bedroom
recorded music tapes to their first contract, with a British label for
a 3 box EP. Their lack of musical ability is no obstacle to worldwide
underground fame. The movie is so earnest, and so without laughs beyond
an in-the-know smirk, that you may not even clue in that this is a
mockumentary, although about an actual band.
The movie is one of those hipster-insider jokes, by which they congratulate themselves on being in the know and secretly smirking in superiority at anyone who doesn't get the joke. And the joke, dear viewer, is on you.

Venturelab Twente wins national preliminaries European Enterprise Promotion Award
Program Manager Jaap van Tilburg pitches Venturelab to the European final in Lithuania
Venturelab Twente has been nominated for the European final of the European Enterprise Promotion Award late November in Lithuania.
For the Netherlands competitors were amongst others, Erasmus and Saxion. Organized by the European Commission, the competition recognizes and rewards the best public-private programs that promote Enterprise and Entrepreneurship.
The jury report praised the high-level impact of the VentureLab program. In three years, it supported 230 entrepreneurs, which has already led to a growth in employment of 2,000 FTE. Meanwhile Venturelab Twente became independent and is succeeded by Venturelab International.
The scientifically based VentureLab program consists of a coherent set of instruments, which engages at three levels: the entrepreneur, the management team which ideally is in place, and the business case. Training, coaching and access to networks, are key elements that are offered. As they say, this approach helps entrepreneurs "to fall in a hole less often en less deep, by detecting and addressing shortcomings in all areas ".
Spin-off programs and customized solutions
Since 2013, Venturelab also brings parts of the program on the market as compact spin-off programs:
•the Top Classes Entrepreneurship short-term, intensive programs on strategy, finance or marketing, for entrepreneurs, who quickly and efficiently wish to brush up their knowledge and skills.
•the Venturelab Investor Readiness program an intensive five-day course, intended for SMEs with growth potential and ambition, to adequately prepare suitable candidates to obtain external finance.
Other spin-offs are the Business Model Generation workshops, Entrepreneurship summer schools, workshops for business developers (together with the Dutch trade association for business developers), and the soft landing programs, together with regional partners, to help establish foreign companies in Twente.
The picture shows Jaap van Tilburg (right), Rinke Zonneveld, Director Entrepreneurship Department at Ministry of Economic Affairs, Agriculture and Innovation (middle); and (left) the winner in another category.

I'm new to WP7.5. i'm wondering if there is a way to have - right from the homescreen - the search engine which is looking into the local applications list.
Basically after unlocking the phone I want to quickly do a search for an installed app without having to go to the application list screen first
As I install more and more applications it's getting difficult to go through this app list and a mere search does the trick for me as it does on WIndows 8 Modern UI. I though the built-in Bing search engine would also do local search but it seems i was wrong
Any tricks for me ?
Thank you very much

On your menu/app list select any alphabet letter and you can then select your desired letter and ut should jump to that. But you need a certain amount of apps to get the letters to show.
Only other way is to hold home / windows logo button and voice command the app you want e.g. Open Market place or the game you want to open.
Hope this helps
