Renewable energies
Inaugurated at Macro Testaccio Trasparencies - The Art for renewable energies.
A show made to sensitize public opinion about environmental issues.
With the suggestive title Trasparencies, there is an exhibition at Macro Testaccio, which shows one of the most important themes of the contemporary world: the environmental protection. You can visit the exhibition until 22 th of August, then you can find it at Madre of Naples (15 th of September).The exhibition made by Laura Cherubini challenges the indifference which often is linked to this urgent and important problem.
With works of great artists of the International contemporary landscape like Jota Castro, Alberto Garutti, Liliana Moro, Yoko Ono, Tony Cragg, Wolfgang Laib, Luigi Ontani, Mimmo Paladino, Robert Rauschenberg, Rirkrit Tiravanija and Vito Acconci, among others, the project wants to sensitize public opinion, governments and the world of production. The aim is to explain how much alternative energies are important for the future of the planet.
Art, always considered not necessary and only pleasure and entertainment, more than concrete action to change the reality, now it becomes authoress of concrete and effective actions. In the perspective of Trasparencie, it is to be considered as a metaphor of nature : both are clean, common and renewable energies. Basic energies for the growth and the safeguard whether of man or of the planet. In this way, in future years the project tries to mix the common work of artists and companies in new artistic and technological projects in terms of renewable energies.

The first time that I applied silver eyeshadow, my boyfriend asked me why I'd put talc on my face. Harsh, but then adolescent boys are not known for their subtlety. Needless to say, I was mortified and as a result I steered clear of silver for a very long time. But if gold is the colour of Christmas, then silver is definitely the colour for New Year's Eve. So in the name of research, I bravely confronted my demons and tested the latest silver products.
Because the base of silver is white, it's easy to get it wrong. Pick the wrong one and the effect will look too hard. The darker your skin, the more careful you must be. Make sure it's silver, and not glorified grey that you are buying.
Test several together: that way, the strong ones jump out and you don't end up making the mistake I did. Stay away from anything too pearl-like, and go for glitter instead. Karen Millen does a great silver for eyes, cheeks and lips. It looks white in the tube, but don't be put off because once applied it's a strong silver which keeps its twinkle longer than many of the others.
The liquid eyeliner in Supersonic from Nars is a stunning silver eyeliner which looks great on dark eyes. Apply with a thin brush at the lash line for a contemporary bit of sparkle. For an equally sexy but more subtle sheen, try the eye glaze from Stila, in Moon. And on the lips, try Silver Shine lip gloss, also from Stila, although obviously not at the same time. Apply alone or over lipstick with a brush.
"The thing to remember is that anything like silver against dark skin will always give a strong contrast. But because you get such a contrast you don't need to choose such a bright colour, because your skin will offset the colour," says make-up artist Barbara Daly, whose range is available at Tesco. "The modern way is to find things with silver in them. That way, you get the shimmer, sheen and glitter, but it has a background against the skin, so it's more wearable."
The other option is to wear silver over another one of your favourite colours, giving you a silver tint but without any danger of looking like you've been got at by Jack Frost.

On June 10, 2013, Governor John Kitzhaber of Oregon signed into law a significant amendment to the Oregon Environmental Cleanup Assistance Act, ORS 465.475 et seq. (the "OECAA Amendment"). The OECAA Amendment codifies the holdings of many courts around the country regarding the interpretation and application of certain key provisions of general liability insurance policies to claims for coverage for environmental liabilities. The OECAA Amendment also prohibits certain specified "unfair claims settlement practices" by insurers and permits an aggrieved policyholder to pursue an award of damages from an insurer that engages in such practices. This new law should serve to reduce the number of obstacles that insurers may place in front of Oregon companies that are seeking insurance coverage for the costs of clean-up at the Portland Harbor Superfund site, as well as other environmental remediation sites throughout Oregon.
CGL Policies
Throughout much of the 20th Century, insurers issued comprehensive general liability ("CGL") policies to businesses and other entities, which policies provided very broad coverage for liability for bodily injury and damage to the property of others, subject only to certain specified exclusions and limits. These CGL policies often require the insurer not only to indemnify the policyholder for such liabilities, but also to defend any "suit" against the policyholder asserting such liability. Historical CGL policies were typically "occurrence" policies, and not "claims-made" policies – meaning that the policies would respond to liabilities arising out of damage or injury that took place during the policy period, even if the liability claim against the policyholder was not asserted until many decades after the policy period had expired. Such is the case with many so-called "long-tail" environmental claims that have been asserted against Oregon companies.
As scientific knowledge regarding environmental contamination developed in the latter part of the 20th Century, laws were enacted pursuant to which federal and state environmental agencies have ordered the remediation of contaminated sites throughout the country. In Oregon, statutes such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (or the "Superfund Act") and the Oregon state counterpart, ORS 465.200, et seq., have given rise to government agencies requiring both private and public bodies to investigate and remediate environmental contamination that may have been caused by their (or their predecessors') historical operations and practices. Companies that have been the subjects of these government mandates have turned to their historical CGL insurers for insurance coverage to assist in funding the costly clean-ups that have been required.[2]
In response to such requests for coverage, insurers frequently deny coverage on a variety of grounds, including the following:
As a result of these and other coverage defenses asserted by insurers, policyholders often have been forced to initiate costly and time-consuming coverage litigation to enforce their contractual coverage rights under their historical CGL policies. While such coverage litigation dragged on for years, policyholders were incurring substantial – and possibly enterprise-threatening – costs to investigate and remediate the environmental contamination at issue. Meanwhile, insurers had little incentive to resolve their coverage disputes with policyholders in a timely fashion.
To address some of the difficulties in insurance recovery being experienced by Oregon policyholders, the Oregon Legislature enacted the OECAA in 1999.
The OECAA
The Oregon Environmental Cleanup Assistance Act is a statute designed to clarify the interpretation of certain insurance language upon which insurers have based some of their defenses to environmental coverage claims. Notably, the OECAA is not limited to claims asserted by Oregon residents. Rather, it applies to any policyholder that is a potentially responsible party for the clean-up of a contaminated site located in Oregon.[3] The legislative purpose of the OECAA is stated as follows:
"465.478 Legislative findings. The Legislative Assembly finds that there are many insurance coverage disputes involving insureds who face potential liability for their ownership of or roles at polluted sites in this state. The State of Oregon has a substantial public interest in promoting the fair and efficient resolution of environmental claims while encouraging voluntary compliance and regulatory cooperation." [1999 c. 783 § 3.]
"465.478 Legislative findings. The Legislative Assembly finds that there are many insurance coverage disputes involving insureds who face potential liability for their ownership of or roles at polluted sites in this state. The State of Oregon has a substantial public interest in promoting the fair and efficient resolution of environmental claims while encouraging voluntary compliance and regulatory cooperation." [1999 c. 783 § 3.]
To that end, the OECAA, among other things, provides as follows:
The OECAA Amendment
Notwithstanding the positive impact of the original OECAA in clarifying the policy language upon which insurers have based certain of their coverage defenses – including those policyholders that are taking responsibility to clean up the Portland Harbor Superfund Site – a number of policyholders continued to experience denials of coverage, significant delays and general frustration over insurers' improper claims-handling practices.[9] The OECAA Amendment, introduced in the Oregon Legislature as Senate Bill 814, was designed to address some of these issues. Importantly, the OECAA Amendment is retroactive, "apply[ing] to all environmental claims, whether arising before, on or after the effective date [of the] Act."[10]
Like the OECAA, the OECAA Amendment provides rules of construction for certain ambiguous or undefined policy terms and provisions in CGL policies that have been the basis for insurers seeking to delay or deny coverage. Also like the original law, these new rules of construction are subject to a "savings clause," which provides that the interpretive rules "do not apply if the application of the rule results in an interpretation contrary to the intent of the parties to the [insurance policy in question]."[11]
Below is a summary of some of the principal features of the OECAA Amendment.
New Rules of Construction
Consent-to-Assignment Clauses
Many historical CGL policies contain a provision stating that a policyholder may not assign an "interest in the policy" without the consent of the insurer. Insurers have argued that this provision requires the policyholder to obtain consent for the assignment of claims for coverage that have already accrued under the policy – as well as for assignment of rights to coverage under the policy for future events.[12] This insurers' argument was particularly troublesome for companies that had acquired or merged with other companies whose historical operations were not considered environmentally problematic during the period of those operations, but later were determined to have contaminated the environment. Under the insurers' interpretation of the consent-to-assignment clause, the surviving company would not be able to access the predecessor company's historical CGL policies because the predecessor never had obtained the insurers' consent to the assignment of its coverage claims to the surviving company, even though the damage had already occurred – and therefore the right of the predecessor to collect coverage under the policy had already accrued – prior to the assignment.
The case law in Oregon on the issue of assigning insurance policy rights was arguably somewhat uncertain.[13] The OECAA Amendment clarifies this issue. Specifically, it provides that the standard consent-to-assignment clause in CGL policies may not be construed to prevent the assignment of environmental coverage claims under a policy after the damage has already taken place – and thus after the claim against the insurer issuing the policy has already accrued. This provision of the Amendment is in accord with the holdings of many courts around the country to the effect that consent-to-assignment provisions were intended to prevent insurers from being involuntarily required to insure a materially increased risk resulting from the assignment of a policy, but such provisions were not intended to impede assignment of an already-accrued claim for coverage for a past incident because such assignment did not materially increase the risk of the insurer.
Non-Cumulation Provisions
Some liability policies contain a "prior insurance and non-cumulation of liability" provision, which states that if any loss covered by the policy is also covered in whole or in part under any policy issued for a prior period, the policy limits shall be reduced by any amounts due under such prior policies. Policyholders have argued that this provision was drafted by insurers with the intention of preventing a policyholder from obtaining a "double recovery" of insurance payments for the same loss – i.e., receiving coverage payments for the same liability from different insurance policies, for a total recovery in excess of the amount of the loss. Notwithstanding that original intent, some insurers have attempted to apply this provision to a long-tail environmental claim – where damage occurs over multiple policy periods – in a manner that would reduce or eliminate the coverage available to a policyholder from a subsequently issued policy by virtue of the issuance of an earlier policy that also provides coverage for the environmental claim – even in a situation where the liability is so large that the policyholder must collect coverage from both the earlier policy and the subsequent policy to be fully reimbursed for that liability.
The OECAA Amendment makes clear that the non-cumulation provision may not be construed to reduce the limits of coverage under a policy simply on grounds that a previously issued policy also potentially provides coverage for the same environmental loss. Specifically, the Amendment provides that the standard non-cumulation clause in CGL policies may not be interpreted to reduce the policy limits for a policyholder that has filed a "long-tail environmental claim," which is defined in the statute as "an environmental claim covered by multiple general liability insurance policies." By virtue of this provision of the OECAA Amendment, insurers cannot continue in their attempts to interpret and apply a non-cumulation provision in their policies as an "escape" clause, which voids their coverage responsibility simply because an earlier-issued insurance policy also has coverage obligations for the same environmental loss.
Owned Property Exclusion
CGL policies provide coverage for a policyholder's liability for damage to another's property, but they do not typically cover damage to the policyholder's own property. Thus, these policies often contain "owned property" exclusions, which state that there is no coverage for losses to property "owned" by the insured. In the context of environmental contamination claims, damaged property often includes public waterways, the material below the water in these waterways (called "sediments"), groundwater and soil. Oregon law is clear that public waterways, sediments beneath such waterways and groundwater are owned by the public, and not by any particular policyholder.[14] Accordingly, the "owned property" exclusion should not apply to liability for costs associated with damage to these types of third party property.
The issue of soil contamination on property owned by the policyholder, however, has been the subject of some debate between policyholders and insurers. Policyholders typically argue that coverage for the cost of remediating their own soil is not barred by the owned property exclusion if that remediation is designed to prevent threatened – or to stop continuing – contamination to third party property. This argument is supported by case law in a number of jurisdictions.[15] Insurers, on the other hand, argue that the cleanup of soil contamination on the policyholder's property is not covered under a general liability policy because the soil is "owned" by the policyholder – regardless of the fact that the soil contamination may adversely affect property that is not owned by the policyholder.
The relevant case in Oregon on this issue is Schnitzer Investment Corp. v. Certain Underwriters at Lloyd's of London.[16] In Schnitzer, the Oregon Supreme Court held that the "owned property" exclusion applied to bar coverage for the costs for soil remediation on a policyholder's property because there was no showing that the policyholder was simultaneously being required to remediate damage to any groundwater or other non-owned property.[17] In so holding, the Court stated that, if damage to third party property had not already occurred, a showing of threatened damage to such property was insufficient to overcome the owned property exclusion hurdle.[18] Instead, actual damage being caused to third party property was required to invoke liability coverage for a policyholder's cleanup of contaminated soil on property that it owned.
To address the foregoing dispute regarding the application of the "owned property" exclusion, the OECAA Amendment clarifies that, if part of the remediation costs incurred by the policyholder involves work that must be undertaken on the policyholder's property to cut off the migration of contaminants to non-owned property, the owned property exclusion may not be construed to preclude coverage. Further, the policyholder need not show that actual damage to third party or public property had already taken place. Rather, the Amendment makes clear that, if soil contamination on owned property even "threatens to" damage third party property, coverage for the costs incurred to remediate such soil in that context will not be barred by the owned property exclusion. In this way, the OECCA Amendment overrides the part of the decision in Schnitzer providing that actual, rather than threatened, damage to non-owned property must be taking place for the exclusion to be inapplicable.
"All Sums" Coverage Responsibility
The OECAA Amendment clarifies the OECAA's "all sums" rule of construction. Specifically, the statute provides that an insurer whose policy states that it has an obligation to pay "all sums" relating to a liability claim may not refuse to make payment to a policyholder on the grounds that another insurer also has coverage responsibility for that claim (the only exception to this rule is if the insurer's policy is an excess policy that expressly provides that the insurer has no obligation to respond to a claim until the limits of the underlying policy have been paid). The OECAA Amendment provides further guidance on how a policyholder may enforce its "all sums" coverage rights through litigation in a situation where it sues less than all of the insurers that have overlapping coverage responsibility for the same loss.
Insurer vs. Insurer Contribution Claims
An issue that both policyholders and insurers had contended was impeding settlements of environmental coverage claims was the threat of contribution claims asserted by non-settling insurers against insurers that had entered into good-faith coverage settlements with the policyholder. To address this issue, the OECAA Amendment provides that:
Unfair Claims Practices
The OECAA Amendment defines a number of insurer claims-handling practices as "unfair settlement practices" that will subject insurers to liability. The new "unfair settlement practices" include the following:
Under the Amendment, a policyholder aggrieved by any of these practices may give notice to the insurer and the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services of an intent to file a claim against the insurer. If the insurer fails to resolve the complaint within 20 days, the policyholder may file a claim against the insurer in a court of competent jurisdiction "to recover the actual damages sustained, together with the costs of the action, including reasonable attorney fees and litigation costs." Additionally, in such an action, the court may, if it finds that the insurer acted "unreasonably," award up to three times the actual damages.
Independent Counsel
Insurers accepting the defense of their policyholders often require the policyholder to retain counsel from a pre-approved list of law firms and attorneys, while at the same time reserving the right to deny coverage if the policyholder is found liable in the underlying proceeding. The OECAA Amendment requires that, if the insurer accepts the defense of the claim under a reservation of rights in this manner, or if the policyholder has potential liability for the environmental claim in excess of the limits of the general liability policy, the insurer must provide experienced, "independent counsel" to defend the policyholder, which shall represent only the policyholder and not the insurer. And, to the extent they are needed, the same rule applies to environmental consultants.
Proponents of the OECAA Amendment argued that this provision is intended to address the problem of insurance companies hiring "panel counsel" – which typically offer discounted billing rates to the insurer based on receiving a large volume of work – "without sufficient experience to defend insureds while at the same time reserving their right to deny coverage… if the inexperienced counsel or consultants they have hired are unsuccessful in defending the case."[19]
The goal of the OECAA Amendment is to clarify the proper interpretation of policy language upon which insurers have based certain of their defenses to coverage for environmental claims arising in Oregon, and to encourage quicker and less expensive resolution of such claims. This Amendment may provide relief for those companies involved in the clean-up efforts at the Portland Harbor Superfund Site, and at sites elsewhere in Oregon, that have had to fight with their insurers to obtain insurance coverage for the costs of these efforts.

Orchestra (Rows R-W)
How was your experience?
Several friends said the first half was very slow but the second half was outstanding. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the entire musical even though the second half was more interesting and spell-binding. It is an amazing story based on truth and that made it all the more entertaining and enjoyable. The musical covered the horrendous Nazi era in Germany with the musicians and the music in a poignant and interesting manner.

Bath & Body Works Signature Collection Body Splash Enchanted Orchid Reviews
Not too bad, but not my favorite eitherEven though I am usually not enthusiastic about floral fragrance, but I do love the smell of Lavender and Orchid. I have tried a few bottles of Calgon's Tahitian Orchid. I have seen the "Enchanted Orchid" line at BBW stores for some time, but somehow I've never tries their Orchid collection. Finally, I decided to try this body mist. The scent is strong, but nothing special. It sort of reminds me o...read moref potpourri mix I used to own. Calgon's Tahitian Orchid smells more exotic, a little bit sweeter, a little bit more like spring rain. Also, I find that Calgon Orchid's staying power is slightly better than BBW's. While the BBW's bottle design is more presentable and sleek, without any doubt I prefer the affordable Calgon's Orchid. — 6 years, 3 months agoluckybetty | 895 reviews

It seems that you did not understand the idea or ebven what we meant to say, but anyway your comment gives us more power please keep on
:: looking at other comments and wondering WTF? ::
Guys, it's nice, but the layout isnt anything special, and the visual is, well, kinda ordinary. Well presented, but not ground-shaking.
Here, let me save everyone the trouble of asking. "Do you even work in advertising?"
Lápices otra vez....
Chief Creative Director Nexus BBDO
Mi little bro` is 5 years old, he loves the pencils and i know that hes better in photoshop. The art direction isnt so good
Tired of metaphoric ads. Replacing matches by pencils !!!!
Creatives should find an new way to make ads. Please its time to refresh the way of publicity industry find ideas. Its time to find it before consumer get bored of our stuff
We 've aready done a mock up for the creativity box to produce it soon, thank you for your participation though, but I'm wondering if you 're in the field of advertising, what have you done that is not too far from Cannes lately?! "that is also pointed for all Cannes comments here." Thank you.
Interesting but that's about it.

I salute the one that reads this down the comments! You deserve a Grand Prix!!!
It would be a grand prix if it was some kind of direct mailer...
as an ad, it is nothing...
nice idea badly executed.
DDB one is not the first one to do this...DDB might have seen this www.ibdaa-awards.ae/2007/ ...ibdaa is far better than this one & original.
guys, build another one of these great pyramides.
but stop making advertising.

Some of my favorite porn "epics" have been Private projects. "The Pyramid", "The Tower" and "The Uranus Project" all come to mind, but there have been several. The Private Gladiator is the latest epic from the company that does them better than anyone. This DVD was named best of all time by FHM magazine recently and that's a whole lot of praise from a mag that knows what guys like. I don't know what would make a DVD the very best ever, but the menus are impressive, the picture is outstanding, the production values high and there seems to be quite a hot cast of Euro-babes waiting around to get fucked. It also has dubbing that is funny as hell, especially since there is actually an attempt at a script here. ...

Carb Class: Needle & Seat / Fuel Pressure
Pressure vs. Volume is something a carburetor is dependent upon for proper operation - PRESSURE DOES NOT = VOLUME. Generally speaking, as pressure increases through a needle & seat assembly, the volume will decrease. Increased fuel pressure leads to issues like aeration, fuel spray and starvation. One thing we like to remind people of is the fact that your float has to overcome whatever your fuel pressure is - If your pump and regulator are set at 10 PSI, then it will take 10 PSI to shut off the needle. Some float designs and materials are not capable of this. Combine that with a shortened lever and the problem compounds itself.
We recommend setting your fuel pressure to 6.5-7.0 PSI for best performance.
Proper float level on a Quick Fuel Technology Carburetor is set with fuel pressure falling between 6.5-7.0 PSI. Once you are sure of your fuel pressure, then it is a matter of adjusting the float height using the adjustment nut. Start by loosening up the lock screw (turn counter-clockwise) a half turn or so to free the adjustment nut. Once free, move the adjustment nut to raise or lower the float - clockwise will lower the float and counter-clockwise will raise the float. With proper fuel pressure the fuel level should be halfway up the sight window - once satisfied with your float level don't forget to tighten the lock screw and wipe away any excess fuel.

Pho San Marcos
700 S Rancho Santa Fe Rd Ste D (at San Marcos Blvd), San Marcos, California, USA, 92069
Serves meat, vegan options available. Offers around 6 main dishes that are vegetarian. The sauces that accompany the dishes are vegan. Vermicelli rice noodles, vegetarian egg rolls, tofu spring rolls.
Category: Take-out, Vietnamese, Non-veg
Reviews (1)First Review by Veg
Not Too Vegetarian - Edit
Went to try this place today. They have a very small menu section titles Vegetarian. I asked about my favorite Vietnamese dish listed in that section, called "Rice Vermicelli with Imperial Rolls." It is normally served with fish sauce. I asked them how they serve it as Vegetarian and they said with fish sauce! When I asked if they offer a substitute sauce, they offered me a packet of soy sauce. Yikes!
I suggest a lot of caution when ordering vegetarian dishes here. I will also add they did not speak or understand English very well. You are better off trying other places.
On a side note, a place next door serves Vietnamese sandwiches. They offer a fried tofu sandwich. The flavor is a little light, but the hot sauces spice it up nicely - for $3.25
Pros: Lots of Empty Tables, Plenty of Parking
Cons: Poor Staff Communication, Not Reliable Vegetarian Options

Lately I've been writing a lot of uber-positivestuff around here, possibly to the extent of being annoying about it. There's a reason for that: I've needed some optimism this past week.
My cat Rufus, whom strangers on the internet are frequently telling me to put on a diet, has developed an eating disorder following an unfortunate butt-related surgery last month. No, no we shall not speak of that, for it is unspeakable.
Understandably, having had his bottom thoroughly irrigated and plunged, Rufus seems to have decided he just wasn't going to eat food anymore. Thus: NO BOTTOM PROBLEMS. And hey, it worked out great for awhile. Until he started to lose weight. Until he developed a life-threatening disease called hepatic lipidosis, and his liver began to fail.
This is a thing that happens to fat cats that go anorexic (I'm not being cute here -- that's really what they call it) and lose weight too quickly: their livers fail. The illness as a result of not eating makes them even less interested in eating, and eventually, if left untreated, the cat will die.
The primary treatment, ironically, is food. Loads and loads of food.
What Rufus has been seeing roughly every two hours for the past week, with breaks to allow me time to sleep.
In fatass Rufus's case, as determined by his weight, that comes to three 5.5-ounce cans of food. Syringed into his mouth one milliliter at a time. Every day.
I've been doing a lot of math. A quarter can of food mixed with just enough water to get it into the syringe comes to about 40mls. I need to give Rufus 12 quarters-of-a-can of this particular prescription food per day, coming roughly to 40mls of food every hour from 9 am to 9 pm. It takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes to administer those 40mls. A normal cat's stomach can hold between 40 to 50 mls at a time (or else there is vomiting), and needs at least an hour -- or two or three, for a cat recovering from illness -- to evacuate to the bowel-based second act of the feline digestive process.
Do you see where the math fails, here? It is a question of time and space. I am in the midst of tracking down a higher-calorie food to expedite this process, but ultimately I am still forcing a huge volume of food into a fat cat to save his life. And it is -- I am not overstating things here, even though it probably sounds like I am -- ONE OF THE HARDEST THINGS I HAVE EVER DONE IN MY LIFE.
He's taken to hiding under my desk to escape my syringe-based torture. It doesn't work, as I am more limber than he thinks.
The vet has suggested the installation of a feeding tube. I suppose this might be slightly easier, and less messy, but it is also more expensive and would require Rufus to undergo anesthesia in his already weakened state, and never let it be said that I have not taken the less-traveled and incredibly difficult path when it is offerred to me.
And so I have spent the past several days -- and will likely spend weeks more -- giving food to a cat that doesn't want it, and on the scale of difficulty, this ranks somewhere between assembling a different IKEA desk once every hour or so all day long, and performing brain surgery on yourself.
After awhile, your ability to reason breaks down. Your thoughts are consumed with cats, cat food, cat stomachs, mililiters and liver disease. Some of the things continuously running through my mind include:
- This is the most absurd thing I have ever done.
- I am going to need to take every towel, blanket, quilt and comforter in the house to be professionally cleaned. [Seriously, there is cat food EVERYWHERE. I will probably need to rent a carpet cleaner as well.]
- What does THAT posture mean? Nausea? Anger? Despair? Oh wait, I'm looking in a mirror.
- So this is what having a baby is like. Except without the added fun of dirty diapers. And if I had a baby I could at least try to breastfeed it.
- I would probably breastfeed this cat if I could. At least then I could multitask instead of just listening to whatever DVD I have on ["Forever Knight," "The Lone Gunmen," anything ridiculous and campy] in the background.
- I am so never having kids.
- Every room in this house smells like cat food. I'm going to have to move.
- Please don't throw up. Please don't throw up. Please don't throw up.
- Just eat, for heaven's sake. It's one of two things cats do really, really well.
My frustration has reached its apex as of today, and I have burst into tears three times already and it's not even noon. (PMS probably doesn't help.) I do not consider myself a particularly nurturing person; I am less about tender loving care and more about just fixing things. So having to dedicate literally many many hours every day to the painstaking administration of nourishment to my cat is wearing on me quick.
As a result I am seriously considering just getting the feeding tube installed in Rufus next week -- this would be a tube extending from his neck and penetrating all the way down his esophagus to his irritatingly tiny kitty stomach, and if the Internet research I've done is any indication, it probably won't bug him that much. At least no more than me following him around with a syringe dripping with food and grabbing him by the head and forcing it into his mouth 1ml at a time.
I feel a little like a failure about it -- leave it to me to make my cat's illness about my inability to be superhuman -- but I'm making peace with that, and trying to stay positive regardless.
My question for you, beloved commenters, is this: What's the most radical thing you've ever done for a pet? How far do you imagine yourself going to take care of your furry companions? Am I completely off my nut for doing this much?
I will say this: The next person who questions my commitment to cat-care is getting punched in the groin, I don't care who they are. This is your only warning.

Berwick residents say flooding is a new trend
BERWICK, La. — Officials here know there is a flooding problem in Country Club Estates, but they have yet to define it. Residents who attended the Berwick Town Council meeting Tuesday want to know what is going to be done.
With the 5.5 inches of rain that fell on the Tri-City area Sunday came flooded streets and homes. It's a new trend for the area, according to Snead Street resident Stan Beauboeuf.
"In the last couple of years, things have drastically changed in that neighborhood. I've been in that house for 32 years and never, ever once got water in my house. In the last two years, I've gotten water in the back of my house, the back bedroom, three times," Beauboeuf said.
Beauboeuf said neighbor Frank Lipari has been in his home since 1972 and got water in his house for the first time Sunday.
"In that 42 years and in that 32 years, we have had lots and lots of 5-inch rain. We've had bigger rains than 5 inches and people haven't gotten water in their house," Beauboeuf said.
He and his neighbors understand how the drainage works in Country Club, he said. They also understand that when there is a heavy rain in a short timeframe, street flooding will occur, he said.
"Before, if you'd get a 15 minute break in a steady downpour, the street would clear out enough to give you some more room and now it stays up. It does not go down … I understand about a lot of rain in a little while. I understand that but I also understand that when things are completely different, then something is drastically wrong somewhere and it needs to be addressed because we can't live like that. If it rains 5 inches, everybody on our street is in a panic," Beauboeuf said.
Beauboeuf asked whether the town had inspected all of the pipes from the outfalls to the Pattie Drive ditch. Mayor Louis Ratcliff said that will be done Monday.
"Doggone guys!" Beauboeuf said. "I've been complaining about this for two years and we haven't done that? That is water under the bridge, in a manner of speaking, but something is bad wrong there. It's bad wrong."
Beauboeuf also had a word of warning for those who go around barricades and drive through flooded streets.
"What's gonna happen is somebody's gonna be out there and somebody's gonna come rippin' down the street and somebody's gonna go grab him and yank him out of the truck," Beauboeuf said.
Several residents in the audience agreed with the prediction.
Kristi Petrie on Hogan Street said three-quarters of her home is flooded right now and is unlivable, she said.
"It's a lot of money and it's very inconvenient, especially when you have children," Petrie told the council.
Her home flooded in 2011 and would have flooded six weeks ago if it weren't for some Berwick High School senior boys who were throwing the water out for them, Petrie said.
Her flooding is coming from the golf course, she said. The ditch there fills up in a matter of minutes before spilling over, she said.
Brandy Smith, also of Hogan Street, concurred with the assessment that their problems are coming from the golf course.
When the golf course drains, it's like a river, she said, washing away soil, trees and her property with it, Smith said.
The water goes through yards, down their driveway and down Hogan Street, she said. Smith also said the town told her three years ago that the ditch in the area belongs to the golf course and was theirs to maintain.
"It's solely for the Country Club golf course and it's their property. Their property meets our property. Their property is taking away our property and causing flooding in other people's property. There's gotta be something that we can do. From the back road to Hogan Street, the entire property drains to Hogan Street. That's a heck of a lot of property to drain to us," Smith said.
A dozen residents from Palmer, Hogan, Snead and Jones streets spoke.
Mayor Louis Ratcliff apologized to the residents that the town didn't study the problem sooner.
"The buck stops with me on the lateness of us getting involved," Ratcliff said.
"We thought six weeks ago starting at the pump station and working north (to clean out ditches) would solve our problem," he said. "It hasn't. Monday we met with our engineer … to discuss the problem — we can see it's a problem — to gather information as to what caused that flooding besides a five-inch rain in a few hour period," Ratcliff said.
He added that the group discussed the surge coming from Country Club. The engineer has to wait for elevations to find out "how the land lays," Ratcliff said.
Berwick Public Works Director Rafael "Chico" Lopez and his crews also did a visual inspection of the inside of six-foot pipes but found them to be clean, Ratcliff said.
Councilman Greg Roussel said the engineer will release a plan after "crunching the numbers" and added that residents in the concerned areas can expect a letter from the town asking them to give their address if they flooded and to detail from which direction the water came.

Pros: SIZE

Cons: feet of case are not rubber/soft
case does not build itself
power/hdd led might be bright for some
Other Thoughts: so... im not sure why there are such low marks for this case. one can clearly see the layout/anatomy if this case in the pictures prior to purchase. this case is virtually silent, save for the whisper of the one case fan. a slim slot-load dvd or bluray burner fits seamlessly. it has all the newest technology built in (2.5" ssd mounting, USB3 front ports), and i LOVE the toolless access to the case; simply pop the snap-on top off. the only unforseen inattention on this case was in the feet of its base. the sharpish-tipped metal feet should have been felt or rubber; these scratch a wooden desk in a really bad way.READ FULL REVIEW

I blocked in the basecoat flesh shades on the light gladiator figures this evening but, being in a bit of a rush, they ended up a little crude to say the least. The flash has also gone phut on the camera, so they don't look quite as rough in virtual reality as they do in real life, which is a minor consolation. I'm sure they'll be fine in the end, so no worries.
Welcome to my wargaming blog. I have upwards of 100 projects in various stages of incompletion and/or total abandonment, so I'm sure you'll find something to interest you. I try to cover everything I do stage by stage, not just show the end result or the things that go according to plan, so it's very much about stumbling along in a roughly forward direction...with the occasional project being finished after many, many diversions along the way.

The Testament of William Clive
M.C. Frye
This is the testament of William Clive.
My story dates back to a distant aeon. Impossible, you think, but I can assure you I've been alive for ever, well, at least for so long, I've lost count. I don't look a day over 40 though. The year was 2012, and the president of the United States was Caesar Veidt. You've never heard of him, and I don't blame you. I was sent into outer space alone, on what was the longest mission of my time. After two years, I lost all contact with Earth for reasons to me still unknown, and after I ran out of fuel, my ship was doomed to roam the universe for eternity, there seemed to be no hope for me. My ship than floated for so long, the only things that kept me alive were a 20 year supply of nourishment, books, and films from my native planet that kept me from complete madness. When food eventually ran out, there was nothing for me to do but jump out of my capsule and put an end to my mysery. It was at that moment that I saw a spaceship, not too distant from my own, it was incredibly big, and didn't look like anything I'd ever seen before. I learnt it was no mirage as I was picked up by the foreign object. There I was, brought inside a thing from out of this world, occupied by strange-looking primaeval creatures, a form of life so different from our own I would fail to describe. They spoke a language completely new to me, and it was incredibly difficult for me to get an actual response. They gave me a few pills which restored my health and made me feel like a whole new person, I had almost forgotten all those years alone, years that would have driven anyone insane. I managed to give them the coordinates to my old planet, and I couldn't believe my eyes when saw it once more, so blue and familiar. I was finally going home, I thought. Alas, I was wrong. I'd aged only 20 years, but eons had passed on the planet once called Earth, and it wasn't a futuristic view, on the contrary, it was a wasteland. People looked primitive, and lived in caves. Probably a natural disaster, or more likely a devastating atomic explosion, had completely wiped out the human race as I had left it, and now it was starting all over again before my very eyes. The latter hypothesis was supported by the abnormal levels of radioactivity we found in many parts of the globe. I was now able to communicate telepathically with the foreign creatures who helped me find the way home, and I managed to convince them to clone my DNA. That way, that primitive form of life was soon replaced by an intelligent race, capable of building a civilization similar to the one I remembered. With some help from the foreign creatures and myself, the human race was finally developing. The all-new youth of planet Earth was still too primitive for me, that's why I decided to follow my saviors on their trek. During that time, I learnt that there are an infinite number of species in the universe, and an infinite number of worlds, each one inhabited by a different kind of intelligent race, some of them even show similar traits. I've found out many species were created by the same type of creatures, who left their DNA on various planets so that life could evolve under such different atmospheric conditions. After what for me were roughly 6 months, I asked them to drop me back on Earth. It is now the year 2012 all over again, and everything is quite like it was when I left the first time. I am finally home. The reason I'm writing this testament is to raise awareness. Who knows how many times something like this already happened? I'm not so presumptuous to assume that this is the first time the human race has risen from the ashes of an older one. Sadly, I can't promise you that it won't happen again, maybe even sooner than we think.
The End
© Copyright 2017 MC Frye. All rights reserved.
Status: Finished
Genre: Science Fiction
William Clive's testament was SUBLIME!
It brought together all the basic elements of sci-fi stories from classics like "2010: The Year We Make Contact" and "Solaris" to the more contemporary "A.I.," "Knowing" and "Prometheus."
In a way, this is not only a tale of morality to diverge doomsday but a testament to the genre as a whole and the questions it raises about our existence and future.
Personally, I appreciated the benevolence of the aliens. Contrary to eccentrics like Stephen Hawkins who claim aliens would be hostile and attempt to invade us, I believe beings this advanced would not seek primitive human impulses like war. Main reason I HATE movies about alien invasions.
