The mastermind of the Gert Boyle kidnapping plot was sentenced to 14 and a half years in prison as part of a plea deal. Judge Robert Herndon said the scheme by Nestor Guttierez against the Columbia Sportswear Chair was desperate and lame-brained. His accomplices received lesser sentences for their role in the crime. Boyle got away when she hit the silent panic alarm in her West Linn home.

Thanks to a couple of my readers for telling me their Baker's Square restaurants had FREE pie on Wednesdays.
Then today I heard it on the radio and can confirm that Baker's Square locations are doing Pie Rush Wednesday on January 21, 2009. Basically, you can get a FREE slice of pie with any purchase. I'm thinking this would make a fun date night – pay for coffee, get free pie and you know their pie is good!
Go here and find your location and then call to make sure they participate. Some locations may do it weekly from what I've heard!

Bon-Ton blues: Struggles continue for Boston Store parent
Used to be, when you needed new pants or bath towels, you took a trip to downtown Milwaukee to Gimbels, Marshall Field & Co. or Boston Store.
Today, just Boston Store is left in downtown Milwaukee, and it's part of a dying breed — the traditional, middle-class department store.
Boston Store's parent, The Bon-Ton Stores Inc., has hung on longer than most, with 270 stores across 25 states. But it's feeling the crush from discount stores below and high-end stores above, not to mention online retail, which has changed the face of the industry.
The company, based in Milwaukee and York, Pa., is fighting to reverse a slide in sales and years of losses. At stake are 700 jobs at Milwaukee's corporate headquarters, hundreds more in nine stores in southeastern Wisconsin and 27,000 jobs nationwide.
"The challenge is monumental," said Howard Davidowitz, chairman of Davidowitz & Associates Inc., a retail consulting and investment banking firm in New York City. "Most of the stores the size of Bon-Ton have disappeared. They've all merged, sold out or gone bankrupt."
Bon-Ton suffered another down year in 2013, with a $3.6 million net loss. That's significantly less than the $21.6 million loss it reported in 2012, but same-store sales also dropped 4.2 percent compared with 2012.
The company has struggled since Bon-Ton bought the Milwaukee-based northern department store group of Saks Inc. in 2006. It has lost money five out of the last seven years, and total sales in 2013 were nearly 18 percent lower than they were in 2007.
There might not be much Bon-Ton can do to reverse the trend, analysts said.
"It's really hard," said Kelly Tackett, research director at Planet Retail, New York City. "I look at their strategy, and everything (president and chief executive officer) Brendan Hoffman has done or wants to do aligns pretty well with what the best-in-class players are doing."
But retail is moving away from the department store model, particularly among middle-income shoppers, Davidowitz said.
"If you look at the department stores in America who continue to trade with the middle-level customer, they're getting destroyed," he said.
In a further blow, Hoffman, considered a top young retail executive, announced March 11 that he will leave Bon-Ton when his contract expires in February 2015 after just three years. What happens under his successor could determine if the retailer is able to recover.
The answer is of vital interest to Milwaukee, where Bon-Ton is the 11th largest public company in the area. If the company were to move or shut down — which does not look like an imminent possibility — it would mean the loss of another Milwaukee corporate headquarters. Nationwide, a reorganization or significant pullback could affect many of Bon-Ton's 27,000 employees and leave dozens, if not hundreds, of large retail spaces vacant, many of them mall anchors.
Bon-Ton declined to make Hoffman available for an interview for this article.
The downtown Boston Store is of particular concern to the city of Milwaukee. It is the lead anchor at the struggling Shops of Grand Avenue, and Bon-Ton officials have told the city that the store isn't profitable. The closing of the downtown store would leave a gaping space along West Wisconsin Avenue, an area already dealing with several retail vacancies.
The city has proposed offering $1.2 million to Bon-Ton to prop up the Boston Store in return for the company keeping 750 corporate and retail jobs downtown and keeping the Boston Store open through January 2018.
Bon-Ton isn't the only retailer facing these problems. Other mid-level department stores, notably Sears, Roebuck & Co. and J.C. Penney Co. Inc., are doing worse. Even Menomonee Falls-based Kohl's Corp., considered more of a value retailer than Bon-Ton, has struggled with declining earnings the past couple of years, although it remains profitable.
Economic trends are partially responsible, Davidowitz said. The middle class is shrinking as income inequality grows and wages stagnate for everyone but the top earners. Those customers are turning to stores with lower prices such as Target Corp., T.J. Maxx and Kohl's.
It would be difficult for Bon-Ton to compete with those stores on price, he said. Its typical store is two or three levels in a mid-tier mall, where rent is high and traffic is declining.
"It seems like they're dealing with a lot of legacy stores, meaning that they're in malls that have been around forever," Tackett said. "With some of their competitors, you're seeing more flexibility when it comes to getting into newer locations."
Compare that with Kohl's, which has switched to a smaller store format and is usually off the mall.
"They (Kohl's) have got a store with central checkout and a racetrack format," Davidowitz said. "Look how efficient Kohl's is compared to Bon-Ton."
Since Hoffman arrived, he's made some smart moves, Tackett said, including refocusing on national brands, emphasizing shoes and cosmetics, and customizing merchandise to specific stores. Those moves might come too late.
"They're struggling because they're pursuing the same strategy as everybody else, but everybody else has had more years to pursue these strategies," she said.
Tackett also questioned how well the strategies have been executed, considering that they haven't made much of a difference in sales.
Hoffman, in a March 11 conference call with analysts, said the company is on the right track with the changes, noting that it has improved its inventory management and margin. He said the brutal winter hurt Bon-Ton's fourth quarter, when it does the highest volume.
"I think I could sum up the full-year results by stating there were great efforts made under difficult circumstances," he said. "I believe we laid a solid foundation for delivering profitable sales growth in the coming years."
One part of Bon-Ton's strategy is selling name brands such as Estee Lauder in places where other stores don't sell them. Many of its stores are in rural areas where there are no other department stores. But even that strategy could be a losing battle because those customers can buy whatever they want online, Tackett said.
"It would be great if (Bon-Ton) could really fill a niche in middle America, but it's an increasingly difficult position to be in, with the way malls are going and the way online is replacing malls in a lot of ways," she said.
The company has tried to improve its website in the last two years, launching a new look for the site and growing online sales to nearly 5 percent of revenue. It recently announced plans to consolidate e-commerce fulfillment at a new facility in Ohio. But like many traditional retailers, it was slow to embrace e-commerce and struggles to compete with online-only retailers on price.
The company will have to do something to differentiate itself, Tackett said. But because it's losing money, it doesn't have much cash to invest in a new strategy.
"It's impossible to just stay with the status quo in retail right now," she said. "It's moving so quickly. You have to be nimble; you have to be flexible. Bon-Ton so far seems to be pretty monolithic."
Despite losses, Bon-Ton's credit ratings 'stable'
Rumors ran wild that The Bon-Ton Stores Inc. could be the next retailer to file bankruptcy in late 2008 and early 2009 at the height of the recession.
The company reported a loss of $169.9 million in 2008, by far the largest loss since Bon-Ton bought the northern department store group of Saks Inc., based in Milwaukee, in 2006, and the stock price tumbled to nearly $1 per share in January 2009.
Today, the company seems on more solid ground after refinancing its debt and narrowing its losses. Although it has been losing money and carries a heavy debt load, it has good liquidity and significant capacity in its $675 million revolving loan facility, according to Moody's. The loan matures in December 2018.
Moody's upgraded Bon-Ton's credit rating from Caa1 to B3 in May 2013 with a rating outlook of "stable." That's considered high credit risk, but it's better than its previous rating of Caa1, which is considered very high credit risk. Standard & Poor's also gives Bon-Ton a "stable" outlook with an investment rating of B-, meaning it's vulnerable to business conditions but has the capacity to meet financial commitments.
But a bankruptcy would not be without precedent. The previous owner of Boston Store, Milwaukee-based P.A. Bergner & Co., declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1991, emerging two years later as Carson's. At the time of its bankruptcy, a retail expert in The New York Times questioned if the company would ever pull itself out of bankruptcy, given stiff competition from Marshall Field's and Dayton's. Today, both of those brands are gone after the companies were acquired by Macy's.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
In a 2013 episode of hit show The Big Bang Theory, Howard – a pint-sized, superhero-obsessed engineer – brings his wife Bernadette a surprise. He has made figurines of each of them. "That's so cute," she exclaims. "I didn't think there could be a smaller version of you." The excitement wears off moments later when Bernadette learns that Howard created the dolls with a 3D printer he bought for $5,000. "$5,000 for a couple of dolls? Are you out of your mind?"
That scene (above at 2:35) sums up the bear case for 3D industry bellwether . Investors, however, are continuing to buy, sending the stock up around 5% Friday morning. The share price climbed as high as $79.77 after the company reported fourth quarter earnings results in line with Wall Street expectations.
3D Systems reported $154.8 million in fourth quarter revenue, up 52% from the same period in the prior year. Net income was $11.2million. GAAP earnings per share came in at 11 cents, non-GAAP earnings (excluding options expenses) were 19 cents matching Wall Street analysts' consensus estimate. For the full year, revenue increased 45% to $513.4 million. Net income was $4.1 million, GAAP earnings per share were 45 cents and non-GAAP was 85 cents per share.
The company more than doubled its research and development spending from $7.8 million in fourth quarter 2012 to $16.6 million in the fourth quarter 2013. "Maintaining our historical performance doesn't require this level of increased expenditures, but planning to double our revenue over the next couple of years does," said CEO Avi Reichental. "Although, in October, we guided for reduced earnings to reflect these actions, our late-quarter expenditures ramp surpassed our expectations."
Looking ahead, 3D Systems expects 2014 revenue to fall between $680 million and $720 million. The company estimates GAAP earnings per share will come in between $0.44 and $0.56 and non-GAAP earnings per share betweem $0.73 and $0.85. "We believe that 3D Printing is at the cusp of accelerated growth and that the ultimate measure of our success will be the sustainable value we create from our share and scale gains over time," added Reichental.
However not everyone is buying Reichental's version of the story.
In an irreverent (and highly entertaining) report released in January Citron Research explains why it believes bullish investors are having the wool pulled over their eyes, in part using the clip above. On Reichental Citron wrote, "Avi spins word pictures of revolutionizing manufacturing, medical care, biotech, entertainment, nutrition, and even education (and "politics" by "democratizing" manufacturing … whatever that means…)."
The Citron report was full of snarky commentary. But amidst the witticism the research firm did do some price analysis, comparing 3D Systems to competitor Stratasys which controls 38.9% of the 3D industry – 3D Systems by contrast controls 17.5%. The report notes, "If DDD were to trade at the same forward multiple as SSYS, DDD's stock price would be $49.00."
"The bull thesis on DDD is flawed beyond all measure," says the report. "If you really want investment exposure to [the 3D printing] space, Citron suggests you consider Stratasys, or maybe even H-P."

Animal Cognition: Introduction to Modern Comparative Psychology
By: Jacques Vauclair (author)Hardback1 - 2 weeks availability
"Animal Cognition" presents a clear, concise and comprehensive overview of what we know about cognitive processes in animals. Focusing mainly on what has been learned from experimental research, Vauclair presents a wide-ranging review of studies of many kinds of animals - bees and wasps, cats and dogs, dolphins and sea otters, pigeons and titmice, baboons, chimpanzees, vervet monkeys, and Japanese macaques. He also offers a discussion of the ways Piaget's theory of cognitive development and Piagetian concepts may be used to develop models for the study of animal cognition. Individual chapters review the current state of our knowledge about specific kinds of cognition in animals: tool use and spatial and temporal representations; social cognition - how animals manage their relational life and the cognitive organization that sustains social behaviours; representation, communication and language; and imitation, self-recognition and the theory of mind - what animals know about themselves. The book closes with Vauclair's "agenda for comparative cognition". Here he examines the relationship of the experimental approach to other fields and methods of inquiry, such as cognitive ethology, and the ecological approach to species comparisons. It is here, too, that Vauclair addresses the key issue of continuity, or its absence, between animal and human cognition. Given our still limited knowledge of cognitive systems in animals, Vauclair argues, researchers should be less concerned with the "why" question - the evolutionary or ecological explanations for differences in cognition between the species - and more concerned with the "what" - the careful work that is needed to increase our understanding of similarities and differences in cognitive processes. This book should be of use to students of animal behaviour and to anyone who desires a better understanding of humankind's relations to other living creatures.Create a review

re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
The 90 is in good shape, it just has two more doors then neccessary. I just know I wont find one like this again.
Hey Robin, a pic of the two. The AC is on the left. The bolt for each one go in opposite direction and the AC bolt is a little longer. PM the address and I put it out tomorrow.
re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
Dunno how to PM being a dinosaur. jayoldschool is PMing the address so it isn't public . I think I have something you need in trade. The plate under the gas pedal and the two pins that it mounts to. Fair? I'd post pix if I knew how to.

re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
Thanks but I have the 90 for parts so I'll take the pedal off that. I have to anyway because I have a pedal assembly with a kickdown switch on it.

re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
Sam....... I should have asked you if your 90 car has a solid floor pan under the driver's feet. If so, you should cut the entire pan out and install it as per my previous rant about pop riveting in a good floor sheet section. It really is the answer.
Cheers...........R. - 02-04-12 11:52 PM #35
I just bought the rivets today. Might cut the bad stuff out tomorrow.
re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
The rust:
I have to admit, I'm kinda intimidated by this. Never cut anything more then a stuburn bolt or line out. I have one of those air cut-off tools and an air hammer, will one of those work? I'm thinking I may have my friend come weld the new pan in, doesnt seem like there is a lot of room for rivets. On top of this, half the bolts that hold the seats in have broke off. Cant I just cut the bad stuff out and weld in some sheet metal or does it have to be another Caddy floor board? - 02-06-12 08:19 PM #37
re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
Sam, it would be so much better to lay a solid factory-stamped floor panel over the hole and rivet it into place. There are reference points on both floor panels which will serve to guide the new panel to the right location. You will also get the factory accelerator pedal studs and mounts in the right place on the new panel.
To remove the rusted metal, I would use a die grinder (a tool rental place should have one you could use) and a thin carborundum cut-off wheel. Don't try to use an air chisel or a sawzall to cut the badness out. The die grinder method is time consuming but the finished hole is worth the effort.
Cheers..................R. - 02-07-12 10:31 PM #38
re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
We used a die grinder and it went pretty smooth. Glad I had the welder guy with because he taught me a thing or two about cutting rusted metal. Got the new floor pan in but not done welding it in place. Pics later.
re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
Looking forward to this. I'll post the pic of my blue wagon when I do it in the spring. Makes your coupe look not bad.
re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
I thought we were gonna have to cut out everything that had rust. He told me that we only had to cut down to the solid metal that we can weld to. Surface rust is all thats left. If you hit it with a hammer, it sounds real solid. The back drivers floor was a suprise but thats the easy one to fix. Still got some work to do on the drivers front floor pan. - 02-08-12 01:52 AM #41

The new floor pan. Some issues but nothing we cant handle. Not bad for the first time.
Swapping seat rails.
Seat anchor studs broke off, not sure what to do about that yet. Any ideas?
A build sheet(?) out of the black seats that was a 91(?) Brougham. - 02-08-12 08:20 AM #42
re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
Looks like vin number at the top RH, if that's a letter "R", it's a 94. You might ask Cris over at Rippy >>>>>he should be able to tell you. The number on top LH looks like a part number.

re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
Wow that really is the rust belt, I am glad nothing rust's out like that, out here in MT. I am use to 60's cars having minor surface rust. Use to have a 49 Cad, solid expect the fenders had some rot in the lower edge.

re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
great job on that floor pan! Thought I was ganna have to do similar with my 69 but it was solid enough to not need it...I may do it eventually if I ever do a real restoration on it!
I love seeing these project threads, so much fun - 02-08-12 11:25 AM #45
re: 84 Coupe Deville Project
Yea, its a big difference between here and where I grew up at in Texas. $500 cars down there are $1000 cars up here. For us that live where salt is laid down, not having to deal with rusted bolts is $500 well spent. Luckily, the 90 came from Arizona. Thanks Matt, it wasnt hard really, cut out and weld in. It would have been easy to put rivets in also. I might pull the 500 tonight upon wifey approval.

This lively narrative traces the history of Sicily from the foundation of its multicultural kingdom under the Normans in the twelfth century to the end of its baroque monarchy in the nineteenth, with framing chapters covering the periods before and afterward. Here, in a text dripping with eloquence, passion and fact after fact, a leading historian tells the complex yet fascinating story of the world's most conquered, most contested island.
Accompanied by 14 pages of maps, 4 pedigree charts, drawings of coats of arms and a 10-page chronology, it is a rare journey into understanding. Few histories of Sicily have ever been presented so clearly.
This volume is a nearly complete overview of Sicilian history from the Bronze Age to around 1950. It begins by laying the groundwork of what was to come, recounting the experience of Sicily under its indigenous peoples, followed by the Greeks, Carthaginians and Romans. A chapter about the society of the Arabs and Byzantines the Normans found in 1061 sets the stage for a plunge into the next seven centuries, through dynasties from Germany, France, Spain and - finally - Italy.
With erudition and focus, Mendola explains how the last monarchies ended in 1860 and 1946. This is the first history ever written in English that deals with the Kingdom of Sicily over such a long span of time. Here the emphasis is not just kings and queens but an entire society and its identity. This volume is complementary to the author's previous entry, The Peoples of Sicily.
Among the appendices are a list of the kings of Sicily, a list of the Sicilian peerage in 1848, and several pages on the knightly orders, details that make this an excellent book to consult. There are informative notes, with dozens of sources cited, including many scholarly articles published in Italy and Britain.
Many books seek to explain history. This one touches it.
About the Author:
Louis Mendola is one of Sicily?s foremost historians, and one of the very few whose work is known beyond Italian borders. The focus of his most significant scholarly papers is the comparative history of the medieval Normans in Sicily and England. Having researched in Italy, Britain, Germany, France and the Vatican, he has been consulted by The History Channel, the BBC and The New York Times. Read by millions internationally, his online articles have made him the most popular Sicilian historian of the present century.

Affiliate Marketing BasicsWhether you are interested in using affiliate marketing as a complimentary supplement to your already existing business or you are planning to break into money making online with it, it�s going to pay off if you do it the right way. Knowing exactly how do it the right way is as simple as arming yourself with the right affiliate marketing information and education. Affiliate marketing is defined as an agreement shared by a merchant and web site owners. How it works is the affiliate agrees to promote the merchant�s products on his or her site, using a link or icon. When visitors click that link on the affiliate�s site, the merchant provides the affiliate with a commission from the sale. So it is a win-win scenario for the merchant and affiliate. Both are receiving income�the merchant from the sale and the affiliate from the commission. What�s more, affiliate marketing is a way to start making money online without putting a bunch of money into a business. Little to no upfront investment means in most cases any income you make is profit, which is always nice for a first-time business venture. Other benefits to affiliate marketing include the comfort of working from home, flexibility in work hours, zero inventory and customer problems, and very little time needed to maintain the business. The most attractive benefit may be the endless potential for income. The sky is the limit with affiliate marketing, and you are able to control how many affiliate relationships you build. While affiliate marketing is appealing to many, and it may seem to be a way to get easy cash, there is actually much more to it than meets the eye. Yes, it can be very profitable, but it only works if it is set-up in the right way. What�s the best way to learn about affiliate marketing? Just like any potential business one may consider, it just makes sense to do your homework and know the ins and outs of the business prior to jumping in with both feet. A simple way to set yourself up for success is to become an expert in the field. Once you possess the knowledge it takes to understand affiliate marketing, all you have to do is work diligently in order to achieve success. To make the education piece simple for you, there are relatively inexpensive yet incredibly valuable affiliate marketing eBooks you can purchase. For a small investment in the eBook, you will be armed with all you need to hit the affiliate marketing ground running. One great option is Rosalind Gardner�s Super Affiliate Handbook. Containing over 250 pages, successful affiliate marketer Gardner tells you the steps you should take to find affiliate success and why you should do it. Gardner also provides in-depth information about the importance of products, SEO, ad copy, and websites. Another helpful eBook is Kelly Felix�s well-known program, The Rich Jerk. While his jerkiness may frustrate some readers, the objective of the eBook cannot be denied: he will show you how to make money with affiliate marketing. The eBook covers the basics as well as unique trade tricks you may be surprised to learn. Ebooks are a relatively small investment and can save you an enormous amount of time trying to learn about affiliate marketing through the Internet, visiting message forums and reading blogs. There�s no reason to go to all of that research trouble when the good stuff has all been compiled into one neat eBook. While the promise of big money through affiliate marketing may cause many people to jump in before preparing themselves, the business people who take some time to learn before they move forward will achieve the most success.

Men's 10,000 Final: Thursday, 9:00 pm Pacific (12:00 a.m. ET, technically Friday morning)
As of now, Galen Rupp is set to go for his sixth straight 10,000 meter title at this week's USATF Outdoor Championships in Sacramento. But according to this story by The Oregonian's Ken Goe, whether he runs at USAs is dependent on the delivery date for his wife, Keara, who is pregnant with twins. If Rupp is on the line in Sacramento, he should easily win U.S. 10,000 title #6. If not, it's Chris Derrick's race to lose. We preview the race below.

Rupp's plans
It doesn't take long to explain why Rupp is the favorite. He's the American Record holder at 10,000 meters, running 26:44.36 at the Pre Classic on May 30, over 40 seconds faster than anyone else in the field has run. He was fourth at the World Championships last year and earned the silver medal at the London Olympics. He hasn't lost this race at USAs since 2008. Need more? He's got the best kick in the field, with 3:34 1500 speed, he just beat a slew of World/Olympic 5,000 medalists in the Oslo Diamond League 5,000 and he's healthy. If Rupp runs this race, he wins.
That, of course, is the question: will Rupp run? He's entered in the 5,000 and 10,000 in Sacramento, but according to the report in The Oregonian, Rupp's plans are still up in the air and very much dependent on his wife's pregnancy. Rupp's coach, Alberto Salazar, is actually quoted in the piece as saying he'd prefer Rupp to skip USAs and run the 5,000 in the Paris DL meet on July 5, where he could take a crack at Bernard Lagat's American record of 12:53.60.
No matter when Rupp ends up racing, his wife's pregnancy bears monitoring because it's already had an impact on his 2014 season. Rupp was beaten by Collis Birmingham in his outdoor opener at Oxy and ran just 13:19 for 5,000, a far worse performance than his 26:44 10,000 just two weeks later. He said that he'd been dealing with some personal stuff ahead of Oxy, which Salazar said included sleeping at the hospital for the better part of a month while his wife was on bed rest. Things are bound to get hectic again right around the birth, so pay attention to the gap between the birth and Rupp's next race. If they're less than a week apart, he might not be as rested enough to perform at his best in that race.
Mr. Consistency
Derrick probably won't win if Rupp starts, but he's a lock for second and becomes the favorite if Rupp decides not to race in Sacramento. Since he turned pro in 2012, Derrick has run at five U.S. championships and run well every time. Take a look:
Race | Date | Distance | Time | Place |
2012 Olympic Trials | 6/22/2012 | 10k | 27:40.23 | 4th |
2013 U.S. XC Championships | 2/2/2013 | 12k | 35:38.6 | 1st |
2013 USATF Championships | 6/20/2013 | 10k | 28:52.25 | 3rd |
2014 U.S. XC Championships | 2/15/2014 | 12k | 36:14.0 | 1st |
2014 US 15k Championships | 3/15/2014 | 15k | 43:16.0 | 2nd |
Derrick didn't run well in the 10,000 at Worlds last year (he was 18th), but other than that, it's hard to find a truly bad race on his resume. He wasn't pleased with his 13:08 at Payton Jordan in May, but that was still less than a second off his PR; he ran just 13:15 at Pre, but he still finished as the top American on a warm and windy day not conducive to fast times. His PR isn't miles better than the rest of the field, but if you're going by consistency and championship performance, it's Rupp, big gap, Derrick, big gap, everyone else.
Best of the rest
Around the world, the top 5,000/10,000 runners are eschewing the track for the roads, and the same is true in the U.S. TUnless you're a stud like Rupp, it's very difficult to carve out a living solely on the trackThere just aren't that many 5,000s (and especially 10,000s) in the U.S. that offer good competition and prize money. Solid but not world-class 10,000 guys like Bobby Curtis, Ryan Vail and Aaron Braun are all running USAs because USATF will usually pay for their travel and, unlike a race like Payton Jordan, there's prize money on offer ($7,000 for first down to $500 for eighth). But we'd be surprised to see any of them on the track again in 2014. The Peachtree Road Race on July 4th is offering just US prize money this year as it's the US 10k road champs, so there is a big day there.
Those three and Sean Quigley are the best bets for the third spot. Vail has the best performance this year with a 2:10:57 10th place in the London Marathon, but he might not have the closing speed in a tactical race (just 3:43.94 in the 1,500 at the Portland Track Festival on June 15). Braun was fifth at USAs in the 10,000 last year (top returner after Rupp and Derrick) and ran a quick 61:38 half marathon in Houston in January, but since then he ran a subpar 2:19 marathon in LA in March and DNF'ed the 10,000 at Pre in May. Curtis (11th, 30:32) and Quigley (7th, 30:05) both ran pretty average races their last time out in the Bolder Boulder 10k. It's really hard to pick just one of them for third, but at gunpoint we'd probably go with Vail based on his success in London and his sixth-place finish last year.
LRC Prediction
1. Rupp 2. Derrick 3. Vail

The first data about the family dates back to 1046. Presumably, the Dadiani descended from a certain Dadi. Appointed as hereditary eristavi (dukes) of Odishi (Samegrelo) in reward for their military services, the family had become the most powerful feudal house in western Georgia by the 1280s. At that time, the branches of the family governed also Svaneti and Guria. In 1557, Duke Levan I Dadiani became hereditary Prince (mtavari) of Mingrelia and established himself as an independent ruler. His descendant Prince Levan III Dadiani was forced to abdicate in 1691 and DadianiÆs relatives from the Chikovani) family inherited the title of Princes of Mingrelia and the surname of Dadiani. Accepting Russian sovereignty in 1802, the Dadiani were elevated to the dignity of Prince of the Russian Empire and enjoyed significant independence in their home affairs. Niko Dadiani, the last Prince of Samegrelo was deposed and his principality was abolished by the Russian government on January 4, 1857. Prince Niko Dadiani officially renounced his rights to the throne in 1868. Dukes (eristavi) and Princes (mtavari) of Mingrelia Vardan I Dadiani (ca 1180ss-1190s) Shergil Dadiani (ca 1220s-1240s) Vardan II Dadiani (ca 1240s-1250s) Tsotne Dadiani (ca 1260s) Bedan Dadiani (ca 1270s-ca 1290s) Giorgi I Dadiani (ca 1293-1323) Mamia I Dadiani (1323-1345) Giorgi II Dadiani (1345-1384) Vameq I Dadiani (1384-1396) Mamia II Dadiani (1396-1414) Liparit I Dadiani (1414-1470) Shamandavle Dadiani (1470-1473) Vameq II Dadiani (1474-1482) Liparit II Dadiani (1482-1512) Mamia III Dadiani (1512-1533) Levan I Dadiani (1533-1546) Giorgi III Dadiani (1546-1573, 1574-1582) Mamia IV Dadiani (1574, 1582-1590) Manuchar I Dadiani (1590-1611) Levan II Dadiani (1611-1657) Liparit III Dadiani (1657-1658) Vameq III Dadiani (1658-1661) Levan III Dadiani (1661-1681) Levan IV Dadiani (1681-1691) Giorgi IV Dadiani (Lipartiani) (1700-1704, 1710-1714) Katsia I Dadiani (1704-1710) Bezhan I Dadiani (1714-1728) Otia I Dadiani (1728-1758) Katsia II Dadiani (1758-1788) Grigol I Dadiani (1788-1791, 1794-1802, 1802-1804) Manuchar II Dadiani (1791-1793) Tariel Dadiani (1793-1794, 1802) Levan V Dadiani (1804-1840) David I Dadiani (1840-1853) Niko Dadiani (1853-1857)

Sasha Says:
November 5th, 2009 at 8:41 pmEva Mendez is so beautiful and sexy. lol at Rhianna, she's got a bad choice in men so she tries to steal over women's guys but I guess her slutty clothes disguises her terrible singing.
I think Megan Fox is just another Pamela Anderson wannabe and it's a shame she will never be recognised for whatever talent she has but her body. I think she likes it that way. She has amazing eyes :)

krys Says:
December 6th, 2009 at 4:47 ammegans hot but people forget they were asked more than just about beauty. Yea I think she loves the control her beauty can have over men.
I think Scartlet should of been higher If not the first. Kristen Bell isn't so hot but she def seems that she could have an intelligent conversation and is cute. Some of these girls all u see is boobies. That's what makes Megan even hotter is that hers are natural but they balance very well w the rest of her. -

Rich Says:
December 27th, 2009 at 3:29 pmsorry people Megan Fox is cute but belongs in the top 20 list anywhere from 11-20, not 1-10 and sure as hell not #2. Positions # 10 and 4 and 3 way outdo Megan and Eva deserves #1 but that pic shown here was a lousy choice that didn't show her true beauty people.
nice Says:
December 27th, 2009 at 5:46 pmHow can anyone think of Eva Mendez as ugly? Not only is she a beautiful representation of Latino women, she is talented, (which other sluts on the list are not)has a great career AND personality. She is a real woman;; it is obvious, that's why she won the FiRST PLACE, aha(:

Hard1 Says:
January 13th, 2010 at 6:20 pmI would fuck Rihanna in the face if she got on her hands and knees and begged for it… then someone else could get her ass at the same time and we'd give her a good spit roasting.
landra Says:
February 4th, 2010 at 8:49 amnicky and face slap: this isn't about who is pretty or not this is 'bout inteligence and all the stuff that isn't superficial got it?
According to AskMen.com, "readers are asked to look beyond sex appeal and beauty to pick women who have the characteristics they value in a potential companion, like intelligence, humor, charisma, and ambition."

The life of a FIFO is often shrouded in the personal hardships depression, debt, boredom, sullied relations among others.
But such a scenario is not always the case.
During any hardship, some will buckle, some will endure and a few will find away to make even the most horrible conditions work in their favour.
Sean McInerney is an opportunist making the FIFO lifestyle work for him.
Wealthy, mobile and young, Sean has proven every year nine teacher who taught in the 1990s wrong. He did amount to something, and you can probably multiply that amount by three.
This story was produced in collaboration with Marcus Thompson (OP) Chase Burns (DOP) and Sean McInerney, additional footage was sought from ABC archives.

Good on you bro. You work hard for your money and its up to you how you spend it. Let the Haters hate. You pay taxes so how is Australia missing out. The point is everyone work in mines to get ahead and living a happy lifestyle! Massssive
He's paid his taxes. He's working FOR the country. Let him spend his hard earned cash on what makes him happy. Save the criticism for the bogans who live off our taxes. Able to work and choosing not to is worse than paying 30-50k a year in tax and $100 bucks a month on a maid in Bali. Doesn't make sense calling someone heartless for spending money in a poorer country, isn't it contribution to a country that relies purely on tourism?
I know 8 fifo friends. 1 is doing well and has a smart head on his shoulders and is saving. My other 7 friends are in huge debt (despite good money), gamble, drink, divorced or about to be, miserable and have no real formal education. Sadly 4 have already been told their marching orders and are unemployed, heavily in debt, trying desperately to sell their toys like ss utes and jet skis, nothing to show for the yars of work as they thought the gravy train would never end and they also have to support ex-wives and kids. They are having a very hard time finding work due to lack of skills and formal education or qualifications and one of friends could only find work that pays 40 - 55k a year which is very hard to go back to when you have being earning 100k+ and living a 100k+ lifestyle. FIFO is great but people need education, support and mentoring around it or it can be bad. In fact many towns and regions are lobbying to ban it as fifo has destroyed their town, economy, families, spike in stds and abortions etc. maybe a story on that????

CHICAGO – Like the awesome Engine Who Could, the mighty Nothing Without a Company stage crafters have constructed another triumph at their new home in Berger Mansion on Chicago's north side. "The Kid Thing" – written by Sarah Gubbins – is a terse, convincing and emotional play about fear, identity and breeding, and it is performed by its cast of five with utter authenticity. The show has a Thursday-Sunday run at the Berger North Mansion through April 15th, 2017. Click here for more details, including ticket information.

Film Review: 'Get Out' is Funny, Scary & Tells Us About Us
Submitted by PatrickMcD on February 24, 2017 - 11:11amCHICAGO – When he got his chance, writer/director Jordan Peele ("Key & Peele") completely understood what he had to do – combine his skewered hilarity, love of horror movies and true social conscience, and put them all into one great movie. Ladies and germs, "Get Out."
Film Review: 'Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates' is Hilarious Joy
Submitted by PatrickMcD on July 8, 2016 - 10:27amCHICAGO – In these difficult times, we flat out need a belly laugh. The timing of "Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates" couldn't be better, because this group of comic actors and this movie provides a respite of hilarious joy. By simply exploiting the truth of the based-on-a-real-story premise, "Mike and Dave" is the type of farce that anybody can relate to, and laugh at gratefully.
Interview: Adam Devine, Director Jake Szymanski Realize 'Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates'
Submitted by PatrickMcD on July 5, 2016 - 2:04pmCHICAGO – The funniest movie of the summer describes its whole situation through the title – "Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates." This hilarious farce features a killer cast, led by Adam Devine and Zac Efron, and brilliant comic direction by Jake Szymanski.
Blu-Ray Review: Strong Cast Makes For Fun Trip to 'Cedar Rapids'
Submitted by BrianTT on June 28, 2011 - 10:48amCHICAGO – Millions more people have seen his work in the two "The Hangover" films but Ed Helms' best performance to date is actually in the recently-released-on-Blu-ray "Cedar Rapids," a clever and enjoyable slice of midwestern comedy that co-stars John C. Reilly, Anne Heche, Sigourney Weaver, and more. The excellent cast elevates a somewhat-inconsistent screenplay, making this fun film worth the trip.
Film Review: Will Ferrell Seeks Recovery in 'Everything Must Go'
Submitted by PatrickMcD on May 13, 2011 - 3:02pmCHICAGO – Alcohol mixed with the American Dream sometimes becomes a destructive chemistry. With every individual's reaction to ethyl alcohol like a fingerprint, the general image of the party animal can easily morph into what John Cheever called 'The Sorrows of Gin." These sorrows are explored through Will Ferrell in "Everything Must Go."
HollywoodChicago.com Hookup: 25 Pairs of Chicago Passes to 'Cedar Rapids' With Ed Helms, John C. Reilly

Blu-Ray Review: 'No Country For Old Men' Riveting in HD
Submitted by BrianTT on April 13, 2009 - 8:23amBlu-Ray Rating: 4.5/5.0 |
CHICAGO – Like most truly great films, "No Country For Old Men" gets better every time I see it. My most recent viewing, in pristine HD with the new Blu-Ray release, made me appreciate this dark masterpiece even more than the last time I saw it and I have a feeling it's one of those films that will change a bit every time I press play. Films like that, ones that get deeper with time, are what we call "must-owns".

Oh christ, it's the last panel from Loss.jpg, too.
OH MY OH MYaaaaaa AAAAA NO
it's a five second mock up but i couldn't un-imagine it
How so, specifically?
Back then, there wasn't really a distinction made between Muldbuggian neoreaction (e.g. verbose exegeses on how Sir Thomas Bluhington III, noted Victorian scholar par excellence, conclusively proved that democracy unstable degenerate institution doomed to devour itself), versus what we now think of Breitbart-style alt-right (e.g. people on 4chan calling each other cucks while masturbating to nude aryan women in wheat fields). In particular, certainly in my mind at least, and also probably in the minds of many rationalist-adjacent people, the former was by far the more conceptually prominent.
Caustic Grip - Front Line Assembly
Submitted by rocketverliden
rocketverliden replied to your post: I'll be fifty years old and I'll suddenly remember…
Ok so
To start, the guy who did the project was already a meme among our peer group. And that peer group would be "AP/ Honors Assholes of the Class of 2014" and he was one of the poster children for everything that was absolutely wrong with us as a peer group. He was also known for being a rabid conservative who disrupted class with inappropriate or just plain bizarre interjections and this video is far from the extent of his shenanigans, but there's some background info for ya, at least
In junior year English we had to do biography projects, and he partnered up with a buddy (Wait, he has friends? Yeah apparently outside of school he was fairly chill. I've bumped into him a couple times in college and he actually apologized for being a massive douchenugget to me during high school. But that's beside the point) to do a project on Arnold Schwarzenegger.
So he and his project partner (a much nicer person, and I think they got the grade they did on this project because the teacher pitied him) are firing up the projector, and our entire English class is like "this is going to be a wild hour-and-a-half."
Oh boy.
We start with him (henceforth referred to as DP) driving around his neighborhood in a huge SUV. For like five whole minutes.
Six months later, I discover that he didn't even have a learner's permit at the time.
Next, we enter his house. He picks up a series of items, including a knife that he ends up licking in a "sexy" manner, and announces in some kind of weird, made-up accent, "Dees is a_____ from AUSTRIAAAA."
At this point my classmates are either laughing or too weirded out to laugh. I was too enraptured by the surreal performance art playing out on the projector screen to look at anyone's faces, but I'm sure they were priceless.
DP heads to the exercise room. He seats himself on a machine. I don't know enough about exercise machines to give it a name, but it looked kind of like a bike.
He uses the machine. The seat rises up and down as he pulls the handle. It is now in slo mo. Animated hearts are floating everywhere.
The class collectively loses its shit.
For better or worse, it got kind of boring from there. DP gives us a tour of the backyard with the same "DEES IS FROM AUSTRIA" routine, he plays pool with his friends, and then–
They do Harlem Shake.
After the class recovers from that, we get Cooking With Schwarzenegger. Did you forget this was a biography project? It's okay. Anyway, this last segment is just DP throwing things in a blender that should not belong together in a blender (ketchup, doritos, a mysterious white powder known as "the good stuff" that he claims you can get from "Eddie" behind Safeway, and just about anything else you can think of) and we watch him pretend to drink the concoction in the end. Or at least I hope he was pretending.
The teacher gave him an 80% just out of pity for his project partner, but DP tried to convince him to give him a higher grade. It was not successful.
We have not stopped talking about that video since.
A class that didn't see it (it was shown twice–once in DP's class, and once in his partner's class) asked to witness the legend and begged the teacher to shut off the torture after ten minutes.
rocketverliden replied to your post "So, uh, Battletech peeps. Elementals were just built to be bigger and…"
The cross-section image on that page looks legit, though.

I'll echo Rocket's sentiments and add that BattleMechs are entirely "lol idk" on the inside, so one shouldn't really expect any better from Elementals.
There's something janky-looking about the anatomy, almost like the leg isn't in the right place. I'll let it go though – I forgot how fast and loose the series was with internals or with physics (Battlemechs have a density that lets them float in water, etc.). Thanks!
Hotel room? And has anyone gotten in trouble yet?
If by 'trouble' you mean 'kinky lesbian sex with chains' then yes. Yes we have.

I was following Funblade at first and then later realized that you were the artist who made a lot of the cool-looking RWBY fanart that was on her blog.
i draw so much future au sorry world
rocketverliden requested that I do Judau Ashta from Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ. I tried to capture his look as well as possible coming from a classic Gundam series into my rounder style. I need to check out ZZ when I can. Hope you like it, I needed that to warm up drawing males again.
If there's another character you guys want to see me sketch, send me an ask!
Well it is Wing, so I guess if I fail I could always just blow up the gundam….
rocketverliden asked:
Answer this with ten facts about yourself, then pass it on to your ten favorite followers.
i forgot to answer this yesterday oops
1. My hair is really poofy, so I always have to comb my bangs down so that I don't look like I have a mini-pompadour. It also hasn't grown in like, half a year. >:V
2. I still haven't taken driving lessons. Or gotten a job. I'LL TRY TO DO BOTH WHEN SCHOOL STARTS, PROBABLY.
3. I eat food a lot. All the time. Food. I have a problem.
4. I'm really unintentionally masculine. I actually have a lot of insecurities about my femininity and junk so I get really sensitive about it. (It makes me rly happy when people call me ma'am or refer to me with female pronouns without prompting that's how bad it is)
5. I've never had chicken pox. SO THERE'S THAT.
6. I always want to dye my hair some cool color but I never get around to it.
7. I was born in New York but I've spent most of my life in the South. (Northern friends have said I have a tiny country accent but they can suck a dick) (I do not have a country accent and if you imply as much you will feel the pain)
8. Peko Pekoyama is going to p much be my first real cosplay and I am simultaneously really excited and nervous.
9. When I'm older I want to live an apartment/small house with a cat (preferably a munchkin Siamese cat, but just a normal Siamese would be adorable) and a turtle. Also fandom merchandise.
9. These facts are winding up longer than I thought they'd be, I'm sorry. There are also more parenthesizes than needed. This isn't a fact. I'm a fraud.
10. I am able to count to ten. I am able to do many useful things, such as win a game of WarLight, cook mozzarella sticks, and look kind of cute with the right webcam settings.
rocketverliden asked:
Well, it's not a show, but advanced space tribes descend on the rest of colonized space and try to take over through controlled battles using powered armor and mecha that can change their loadout easily. Alternatively, five or more space empires try to control said colonized space.
Battletech or Mechwarrior?

rocketverliden replied to your post: Why do the demons sometimes try to kill eachother?
Incidentally, have you seen the comic by Faraz Parsa depicting you in a room firing a pistol into the air, which causes a horde of demons to rip each other apart off-panel?
Love those comics.
rocketverliden replied to your post "GUYS I'M SO EXCITED I'M SO FUCKING EXCITED"
For what?
Bobby just bought the plane tickets to come visit me from December 27th to January 4th!

What to see in Ivory Coast
Ivory Coast Attractions
The Ivory Coast has a number of interesting attractions available for sightseeing. Abidjan itself has the Parc du Banco on the outskirts of the city, where visitors can experience the rainforest's flora and fauna and interestingly, just near the entrance to the park, is Africa's largest open-air laundrette. Inside Abidjan city is the Hotel Ivoire, once a glamourous place to stay but now left to ruin. St Paul's Cathedral is another site within the city of Abidjan worth a visit for sightseeing tourists.
Further afield visitors can see the capital city (by name only) of Yamoussoukro, which is famous for multiple-laned highways leading straight into the jungle, or city streets and blocks all laid out but no houses or structures lining the streets. Yamoussoukro is also famous for the Basilica of Our Lady of Peace of Yamoussoukro (Basilica Notre Dame), which is a replica of St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican. The town of Man is also well-known for its fabric and the traditional masks on sale, as well as for its surrounding waterfalls and beautiful natural scenery.

"Two hundred metres to go," instructs Zac Purchase. And then he starts commentating: "Here come Great Britain, the closing stages of the Olympic final, going for gold. You can hear the crowd now..."
On one bank of Eton Dornay lake, the immaculately sculpted venue for the 2012 rowing events, the scaffold outline of the grandstands is in place, on the other it's neatly stacked awaiting construction. Purchase starts rowing too, as if sparked into action by his own words, and our boat shoots forward, his power telling immediately.
"Can Britain catch the Kiwis?" wonders Purchase in his imaginary race and that, too, brings an immediate response. No. I've lost my stroke and our session ends tamely without an imaginary medal and Purchase pointing out the stand where his fiancée, Fliss, will be sitting on 4 August, the day when it will be very real indeed.
Purchase is 61 days from his second Olympic Games, and a further eight from racing on these waters for a second Olympic gold medal. As suggested by his on-board commentary – an endearing moment that anyone with any interest in sport has surely indulged in – it is a prospect he is relishing.
"It's hugely exciting," says Purchase, now sitting in the clubhouse eating chocolate cake. "It's nice to have it in the back of your mind and allow yourself to imagine, allow yourself to get distracted by the grandeur and the fanfares."
Purchase's quest for gold, which he will make in company with his Beijing partner Mark Hunter, will be accompanied by considerable fanfare and could provide the grandstand finish to Britain's best Games on the rowing lake for more than a century.
That final morning at Eton will first see the coxless four, long Britain's flagship, go for gold followed by Hunter and Purchase – both boats are already favourites. If eachis triumphant it will equal half Britain's most successful gold return – in London in 1908 they won four.
"It will be the best rowing team we've ever had," says Purchase and proposes Katharine Grainger, three times a silver medallist, and Anna Watkins and the men's four as a couple of other likely gold-winning crews. There should be others, too, on the evidence of the opening World Cup event in Belgrade where Britain took a dozen medals, one from every Olympic class. "We won't be winning medals in every event – more crews have got to come in," says Purchase. "But we know we have the potential to do really well."
Today at the World Cup's second round in Lucerne, Purchase and Hunter face New Zealand, their likeliest Olympic challengers, for the first time this season, but it will take some power shift for Hunter and Purchase, the world champions, not to line up in London as favourites. "Basically, we're going to be sitting on the start line thinking, 'Don't fuck it up'."
Four years ago, Hunter and Purchase won the World Championships and every World Cup race in the build-up to Beijing. By the time of the Games they were hugely fancied and on Lake Shunyi they lived up to their billing – they led all their Olympic races from start to finish.
Purchase stood on the podium and cried. "The most emotional part was seeing the flag go up," he recalls. "It was a collection of weird, wonderful and amazing emotions. The ultimate one is disbelief because you've finally achieved the dream that you set out for. There is so little actual chance of making it – it's something like a one-in-60,000 chance of being an Olympic gold medallist. It's a pipe dream."
It is a long way down from that high, especially so for rowers who endure a mental and physical intensity and rigorously demanding schedule that few sports demand. Both Hunter and Purchase suffered afterwards. "There's nothing, a complete void, and that is actually really hard to cope with. It's a bit like being in the doldrums – you have to have that medal around your neck to make it worthwhile."
Hunter thought about giving up but Purchase, nearly eight years his junior, had no doubt that he would do it all again. "All you have to do is think about the Olympics and racing again. I live to race, I absolutely live to race. I wouldn't be in a sport for as long as I have been if I wasn't winning because I derive a huge amount of impetus through the winter, the horrible hard slog, from those wins. At the end of a day you can sit down and think what I've achieved today will help me win in the summer."
British Airways, the official airline of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, is proud to support Zac Purchase
