"This graduation party invitation turned out beautifully, and we've received many compliments on how professional and high quality it is. Highly recommend!"
"This invitation had plenty of room for all the information we wanted to include, and we used the back of the card to share where our daughter will be attending college in the fall. We chose the matte paper, which was perfect as the black background resembles a chalkboard look. The black also was a nice contrast to our photos."
"Exactly as pictured. Easy to personalize. It is LARGE! We didn't look at the size and were surprised by how big it is, but that's ok. It's beautiful!"
"I have had many compliments from family and friends about how nice my sons graduation card turned out. I liked how I could put so many different pictures on to view. Also, how I could mix colored and black and white pictures."
"This was my first order through this company and I was VERY impressed! I ordered the card with the blue flowers and used different fonts. This card looks exactly like the picture, and the paper is of high quality. My shipment even came a few days early! I was so impressed I reordered. I would highly recommend this product."

Re: Cheap UHT milk/cream & Coffee
"As an omnivore I feel compelled to eat meat, dairy, grain, vegetables with no bias."
As an omnivore, you were designed and programmed to consume dairy only until you were weaned, and then you lose most of the ability to digest it. As well as the ability to procure it, in the natural environment.
It wasn't until the artificial environment of shpeherds and all came around that dairy became a food group again, so it certainly isn't in your programming genetically.
As for why some tribes think termites are yummy while most of us just abhor bugs...except maybe crabs and lobsters....no accounting for taste, is there?
Re: Cheap UHT milk/cream & Coffee
lolif it curdles i have powdered whole milk(ugh) and in port near a supermarket i use half and half--yummmm---and between i use guar gum with white almost liquid and some other chemicals --they call it media crema but it is not a substitute for half and half by any means.
Re: Cheap UHT milk/cream & Coffee
Expiration is not always about the product going bad from bacteria. Often it is when the product itself starts breaking down. This could be benign and simply make the stuff taste bad or not function, like yeast.
I do love sweetened condensed milk in really strong coffee though! Plant juice just doesn't cut it, be it soy, coconut or whatever. As an omnivore I feel compelled to eat meat, dairy, grain, vegetables with no bias. As a sailor I don't complain about its condition, at least not loud enough for the cook to hear!
Re: Cheap UHT milk/cream & Coffee
cow mi,k and cream have been in use for centuries as a gastric medicine--fixes heartburn(cream, half and half? is part of a special diet for ulcer patients--still is as there hasnt been a replacement for it yet. sippy diet is the recuperation from ulcers diet.... goes GREAT in coffee as a buffer, using the previous history.....
yes, some people are sensitive to lactose--many are not ..
some people enjoy the flavor of cow milk products--some do not like that flavor.
soy milk tastes evil. yukk and donot place in any proximity to my mocha...f gods wanted us to drink soy milk, they woulda made it come from cows.
(dontcha love the attitude!!!!???)
do we have an eating popcorn icon>?????
Re: Cheap UHT milk/cream & Coffee
"Not identical but similar and arguably better from some nutritional points of view.
Cow's milk? Well, most mammals lose the ability to truly digest it before one year of age. So you're drinking something your body is not designed to drink.
As to being water...mammary glands evolved from sweat glands, so yes, you are basically drinking cow sweat when you drink cow milk. Um um, yummy. And of course, you're depriving a calf of sustenance. And, cows have been so heavily bred over the years that if they're not milked regularly, they're in great pain from the "enhanced" udders."
I would argue the reverse. Humans have been drinking cow's milk for about 12,000 years, and the consumption of it perfectly tracks the advent of human civilisation (the transition from nomadic lifestyle to a society which remains in one place permanently, requires agriculture including a dependence on cattle)
Genetically, we are in the process of adapting to cow's milk. Most Westerners are genetically adapted (they have the gene for the production of an enzyme to digest lactose) and can digest it very well with no ill effects, while a few cannot.
Unfermented soy products like soy milk were invented in the last 50 years by US agribusiness. The human body has never seen anything like them, and they are toxic in numerous ways.
Interestingly, Asians, who have used soy for thousands of years, learned that it must be fermented to make it safe to eat. (ie, Tofu)
Here is an article discussing some of the ill effects of soy milk. Think of it as drinking a chemical byproduct of GM soy production.
The Truth About Unfermented Soy and Its Harmful Effects
Re: Cheap UHT milk/cream & Coffee
i found the outdated stuff isnt bad-is just outdated--still lasts 5 days in tropix sans fridge--not like real milk products without weird additives or weird processing-those only last a short time--half and half here only lasts 2 days as opposed to 5 in san diego. no --i still have no fridge..
what is sterile stuff gonna do--defy laws of science and grow bugs?? gawd knows it doesnt sour.....
Re: Cheap UHT milk/cream & Coffee
Just check the expire dates at any discount stores (Dollar, Big Lots, etc.) I have found a lot of stuff very close to or even over the expiration date. Otherwise great deals!

Original painting by
Nicky van Rensburg
Medium:Canvas on board.
Size: 450 x 550 mm
(not framed)
The Artist – Nicky van Rensburg
Nicky is 28 years old and has been a full time artist for the last 8 years. He lives and works in Pretoria. He has lived his passion since his school years. He paints an "Ethnic Africa" using the name "Tula Pula" – this is a bushveld, sunset scene, with silhouettes of large trees and wildlife, with an ethnic touch. This style is very popular with overseas clients.
His first landscapes were done using the name "LaWaai". At the moment he paints, using his own name – a very colorful scene, originally with a very strong Tuscan influence, but it developed into a South African landscape.
He's an understudy of his dad, the well known, Nic van Rensburg and also attending art classes to improve techniques and compositions.
Because he is still developing, his art grows with enormous strides. At a very
early age he developed his own style with great success, this makes his art
exclusive and in great demand at the right price.

If you have several loans, loan consolidation enables you to combine them into a single loan with one interest rate and repayment schedule.
What consolidation involves. A defaulted student loan may be included in a consolidation loan if you have made satisfactory arrangements with the loan holder to repay your loan. This usually means that you've made three consecutive, voluntary, and on-time payments . A guaranty agency may charge you collection or late fees up to 18.5 percent of the outstanding loan (including the principal and interest). Those fees begin at the time the defaulted loan is certified for consolidation.
Benefits to consolidation. Consolidating your defaulted student loans carries several benefits. First, a new loan is created that combines all eligible loans into a single loan with a single monthly payment. Any derogatory information on your credit rating is upgraded to show that you have a loan in good standing. (The repayment terms and the time it takes to pay the loans in full vary, depending on the type of program you participate in.)
Under the terms of the new loan, you will have the right to payment relief if necessary. In addition, you regain your eligibility to receive federal student loans in the future.
Eligibility requirements. The requirements vary depending on your specific loan program and lender.
How to consolidate. You can consolidate your loan through your lender or through the Department of Education's loan consolidation program.

VPN Service from SecretsLine Ltd
VPN means service for encryption of traffic that is transmitted to multi-access networks. VPN Service differs from other cryptographic technologies and modes due to its large-scale safety policy. It cares not only of encryption as of the first information security clause but also of identification of all nodes in a Virtual Private Network. VPN may be used both by companies (for logical networking between two or more offices located in different cities or even countries) and by individuals using VPN as a proxy server. In the first case VPN is used for simplification of information sharing and its encryption, in the second case it is used for encryption only. In both cased the emphasis is on encryption as nobody can do without it today! In this day and age of commercial espionage and total censorship IP VPN is necessary for everyone, not only for organizations but for common users who want to be sure that their private correspondence with stay private. Virtual Private Network in the best facility for this. It combines efficiency of a dedicated line and cost of general communication solutions.
Which VPN service to choose
Anonymous VPN may be realized with the use of a large quantity of technologies, with their advantages and disadvantages. Today the most common ones are PPTP and OpenVPN. These technologies are not limited by usual encryption. They also provide testing of transmitted data continuity, having gained good reputation in different countries. PPTP VPN was developed in the latter half of the 90-s and it has being constantly improved since then. Initially this technology has been intended for use under Windows operating system, later on there appeared software programs allowing to use PPTP under other OS. The main advantage of PPTP is easy use and stabile work under Windows. OpenVPN service is the technology of tunneling spread under GNU GPL license. It is improved by a team of independent vendors but in spite of that fact it is updated often enough, answering urgent risks of the network and getting rid of vulnerability in good time. OpenVPN service has won its fame due to cross-platform and possibility to pack transmitted data.
Buy VPN at favorable prices
SecretsLine Ltd offers reliable and high-speed VPN access which is organized with the use of high-efficient servers located in the USA and European countries. Favorable location of servers allows proving maximum speed and confidentiality in data transmission as well as setting no limits for our customers! One can use virtual network via Single VPN, Double VPN or Quad VPN. Our technical capacity is more than sufficient for your data to become reachless for various hackers or state authorities and for you to use full-fledged Internet in any place either using a stationary or a mobile computer. VPN is better than proxy-servers (even if you work with them using Hide IP) or anonymizers, for sure. VPN is the choice of those having something to lose! Modern VPN technologies do not have any compromises or half measures; they have absolute surfing anonymity and maximum capability to resist data theft. Now have a look at our VPN services price and call SecretsLine Ltd right now!

Hi guys, I've made a few appearances here asking questions, and looking for stuff to buy. I've almost got everything together, so I thought I'd give it a start. I thought I'd share with you all my progress. Hopefully, this will be quite a picture intensive log, so bear with me.
I know a lot of people don't want you to criticise projects, but in my case, please do. I really want to make this good first time round, and I don't mind a bit of extra work. I love criticism, especially negative criticism, as it helps me to know what I've done wrong, or could do better next time. I honestly think all kinds of criticism help with a project, so flame on.
I started with a pair of Rubies Blasters. I bought them off e-bay for about $20 (£11)
I sanded off all the raised text, sanded off the fake screws and replaced with old screw heads, filled all the gaps and sanded to perfection, removed the battery cover screws and blocks, removed the orange caps, and cut off the ledge that held them, and finally scratch built a trigger guard for the right blaster. I then primed them, and after a few trials, got them how I wanted them.
I sprayed the inside barrel part, and muzzle rim gold, and rub-n-buffed the rest. Just how shiny can you get rub-n-buff?
Still waiting on my friend's dremel tool so I can start work on the fiberglass JD armour (Thank you, sir)
I'm also still short of a set of gauntlets (trying to get a hold of Man of War), gloves (large) Jet Pack, and jumpsuit(large-XL). If anyone knows of some going, please let me know.

Indiana Dunes
National Lakeshore
Nature observes an easily remembered rule of thumb here:
The closer to Lake Michigan, the younger the feature, whether sand dune, wetland, or forest. There are exceptions, to be sure, but you need not be one of them. Why not shed your age and rejuvenate yourself by approaching the water's edge from inland? This is a good way to gain an understanding of the past and of the reasons why this area was placed in the National Park System. The landscape veils many processes - some still mysterious - that have been at work for eons. And this landscape adjoins a compelling deep, one of our five Great Lakes.
Perhaps you have heard that the largest "live" dune here moves away from the lake one giant step each year?
Yes, Mt. Baldy - one look explains the name - moves a short distance away from the lake each year. Mt. Baldy, one of the largest dunes on the southern shore of Lake Michigan is 123 feet tall and is advancing inland at a rate of four- to five-feet per year. Northwest winds move Mt. Baldy inland, slowly burying the forest just south of the dune. Winds pick up sand grains from the beach and blow them inland. The sand grains roll and bounce along in a process referred to as saltation. As the wind speed increases, the sand is picked up and carried. Viewed from a distance, the sand blowing off the top of Mt. Baldy appears as wisps of smoke, thus the term "smoking dune".
Or perhaps you have heard there are fine sandy beaches here and a minimum of hustle and bustle. To test this out, just leave your car or bus and walk off by yourself. Stop, look, and listen. What is not here can be as attractive as what is here. Mystery abounds too. Carnivorous plants can be found here . . . and so can quaking bogs. Perhaps you simply want to test a rumor that grains of beach sand and dune sand are different both in texture and in size. This, too, can be verified.
Certain facts are inescapable. You are here because the dunes have caught people's attention.
Dunes are created when:
- a plentiful supply of sand combines with,
- wind blowing mostly from one direction, and
- a natural trap causes the wind to drop the sand.
Mapping Glacial Advances and a Shrinking Shoreline
You can stand on a flat bit of earth on which two things have been piled:
- sand
- and rocky glacial till.
Our major story is the dunes, but you could easily fail to recognize the inland dune ridges because they are now covered with vegetation. But beneath their vegetation and thin soil veneers lie massive sand piles just like today's beachfront dunes.
The dune ridges farthest from the lake are the oldest. They mark former shores of a once larger lake. As the lake shrank back in stages shorelines formed. Farthest inland are the Glenwood Dunes, representing the oldest of three earlier shorelines. These oldest dunes lie between moraine and lake, proving moraines the older features. You easily guess then that the Lake Border Moraine is younger than Valparaiso Moraine. It is also younger than the Tinley Moraine. The next major lake shrinkage produced the Calumet Dunes Ridge; further shrinkage formed the Tolleston Dunes. The present shoreline built the "recent" dunes. Near, the Licokiwe (Ly-co-ki-we) Trail, the Glenwood and Calumet Ridges abut as both finger out west of Route 149. The Glenwood Dunes then disappear completely, at the edge of the disturbed area - gray tint - due north of the Goodfellow Camp label. In this Industrial area modern man flattened the topography and stabilized the shorelines. Gone are old and recent dunes and the dynamics of living shores.
These disturbed areas do convey some psychological sense of the glaciers' stupendous leveling effects. No "bedrock" features interrupt the general flatness at Indiana Dunes; all interruptions are deposits of sand or rock. There are no "hills" here in the sense of the Rockies or the Alleghenies, not even remnants. As you drive through road cuts you see no bedrock to create the lay of the land; only piles of the glacial till (moraines) or piles of sand (dunes). Ironically, road cuts provide the best glimpses of moraine and old dune ridge compositions. These have become mantled with soil and plants so you do not see old "sandy" dunes and moraines today. Instead you find grass- or tree--covered ridges. On these "blowouts" you find precious few plants struggling to gain a foothold. Such is the wispy life of sandy dunes.
Why Such Strange Combinations of Plants?
Professor Henry Cowles found the Indiana Dunes and Lake Michigan shoreline area a natural laboratory for developing important principles of plant succession. He arrived at the newly founded University of Chicago on a graduate fellowship in 1896 and retired as chairman of its botany department in 1934. Both he and his university students conducted extensive field research in this region. His dedication to understanding this area led to the naming of Cowles Bog in his honor.
Here at Indiana Dunes, thanks to the Ice Age, environments collided and deposited their remnants. The resulting strange combinations of plants attracted Cowles's interest. The arctic bearberry grew next to the pricklypear cactus, and southern dogwoods grew just over a dune from northern jack pines. Something else puzzled Cowles. Plant life differed dramatically from dune ridge to dune ridge. Plants growing near the lakefront were not usually found further inland, and inland forest trees could not be found on exposed dunes near the beach.
Cowles and his students observed that as plants grow on a site they change it. When these pioneer plants have changed the site sufficiently, the way is prepared for other plants. New plants can now be more successful and so they crowd out the pioneer species. Once marram grass becomes established on a dune, for example, that dune changes. Where once there was total sunlight, now there is partial shade; where once only sand, now there is the beginning of soil. As grass blades decompose they begin to build humus. Change sets in. Cowles pieced together the puzzle and formulated basic ecological concepts.
At the close of the Ice Age about 10,000 years ago, the landscape was covered with the spruce and fir forests now found in Canada. As the glaciers moved north, the climate warmed and the forests retreated. Some arctic plants, such as bearberry and jack pine, persisted while plants forced south by the Ice Age reappeared. Dry sand areas with minimal soil - like deserts - now made homes for pricklypear cactus. The red oak and sugar maple found homes in the deep soil and tumid conditions of protected moist areas. All this and more caught Professor Cowles's inquiring eye. You too can sleuth landscape features. On rolling dunes you may find jack pine or black oak, but in moist ravines the dune detective may discover, as did Henry Cowles, red oak and sugar maple. Ponds are scattered among younger dunes. Marshes are found on old lake bottoms between long dune ridges. Sphagnum bogs are found in the moraine. Bogs and marshes are dying ponds, ponds which are filling in and will eventually became meadows, then forests. For the sharp eye nature reveals its secrets, and especially so at Indiana Dunes.
Paul H. Douglas
Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore is dedicated to the late Senator Paul H. Douglas (1892-1976) in grateful recognition of his efforts to protect, preserve, and enhance this park for the use, enjoyment, and edification of present and future generations. The Paul H. Douglas Center for Environmental Education, located in the western part of the Lakeshore, provides an opportunity to acquaint and educate students in the disciplines of ecology and environmental science. The use of the center for such a purpose is a fitting tribute to a man who worked tirelessly in a decade-long effort to establish a national park area at the dunes.

Over the last week I realized I had to throw together some new knee armour to replace my old cracked MB ones, especially with Dragon*Con coming up and my photoshoot with Brak's.
Used sintra to make the sides, the main "cups" are styrene. Layered up and Bondo'd the heck out of it all to look vacuformed, and I'm pretty satisfied. I didn't get enough of a "ridge" on the bottom of the knees as I'd have liked though. I hope to make or purcase some good one-piece vacuformed ones one day, but these will do for now. Sorry for not taking progress photos, more often than not when I start working on something I just don't stop to take photos.

I used the colours Rogue Studios recommends. Because of of how few reference photos there are for ESB I just made up most of the weathering up. From what I can tell the ESB knees aren't nearly as damaged as the ROTJ ones, but they are a lot "dirtier".
I put them together and painted in 3 days, I hope they turned out well!

A few more notes on Mouthpiece Theater
Blog ››› ››› JAMISON FOSER
CJR's Megan Garber continues her excellent coverage of the "Mouthpiece Theater" debacle with an explanation of why the "it was just an experiment" defense falls flat. Garber:
Should Milbank and Cillizza-whose "experimental" journalism involved the duo dubbing themselves "two of the biggest maws in Washington" and treating politics as if it were alternately a sport/a game/a spectacle/an object of mockery-really be applauded for the reductive insult-to-all-involved that was "Mouthpiece Theater"? More to the point, was the series really embracing the kind of experimentation we want to see defining news's future?
No. And: no. Experimentation may well be what will guide us out of the desert journalism is currently wandering; still, Hey, we were just experimenting! cannot be a blanket defense for the blanket abandonment of journalistic ideals. Which, in the end, is what "Mouthpiece Theater" was. In journalism, as in everything else, there are principles that must transcend platform-messages, as it were, that must transcend medium. Among them are: intellectual honesty, a commitment to information, and a fundamental seriousness of purpose. And that's so even when it comes to satire.
There's much more; check it out.
As Garber notes, Washington Post Ombudsman Andrew Alexander, after criticizing the execution of Mouthpiece Theater, wrote "Milbank and Cillizza should be applauded for embracing the spirit of experimentation underlying [the series]."
Alexander was, at times, refreshingly blunt in his assessment of the videos. "Critics justly panned it as sophomoric," for example. And "There was so much wrong with 'Mouthpiece Theater' and the way The Post handled the controversy that it's hard to know where to begin."
But his assessment also left a lot to be desired. He continued the Post's description of the videos as satire that went too far. I don't buy it. What were Chris Cillizza and Dana Milbank "satirizing" when they called Hillary Clinton a bitch and described a wife suing for divorce from a cheating spouse as a "bitter woman from hell"?
Alexander -- like Milbank, Cillizza, and the Washington Post spokesperson who first commented on the controversy -- seems to think "satire" means simply "jokes." That isn't what "satire" means. This is:
1. the use of irony, sarcasm, ridicule, or the like, in exposing, denouncing, or deriding vice, folly, etc.
2. a literary composition, in verse or prose, in which human folly and vice are held up to scorn, derision, or ridicule.
So, again: What human folly or vice were Cillizza and Milbank holding up to scorn, derision or ridicule? None. They skipped the "human folly or vice" part and went straight to scorn, derision and ridicule.
What Milbank and Cillizza did wasn't satire that went too far. It was mean-spirited insults. There is a difference. Saying that they simply went too far in their satire lets them off the hook. It isn't a legitimate defense; it's spin.
Speaking of letting them off the hook: Alexander suggests Cillizza's only flaw in this debacle was hanging out with the wrong crowd:
The basic concept was flawed. Milbank might have pulled it off as a solo act. His Washington Sketch column can be biting and funny, and his occasional accompanying videos are creative and entertaining. It's his job to voice opinions. But Cillizza is different. He writes straight news on The Fix, his popular Post politics blog, and his stories appear on the news pages. Teaming with Milbank created a branding problem for him and The Post. It left readers confused about his true role -- reporter, commentator or comic? -- and about The Post's standards. Cillizza acknowledged this "somewhat discordant marriage" on The Fix after "Mouthpiece Theater" was killed.
Alexander did not mention that Cillizza, not Milbank, was the one who attacked Chip Pickering's wife as a "bitter woman from hell." In fact, Alexander didn't mention that comment at all. Alexander is not alone in that -- I don't believe either Cillizza or the Post has ever acknowledged it. All parties seem content to let people believe Milbank's "bitch" comment was the only misogyny contained in the video. That is, perhaps, understandable coming from Cillizza and the Post -- they are, after all, concerned about the damage done to the branding of "The Fix." But readers might have expected better from the Post's Ombudsman.

Arsenal's annual charity fun run, 'Be a Gunner. Be a Runner.' is now OPEN for entries.
This year's edition of the 10-lap, 6.4 kilometre fun run around Emirates Stadium takes place on Saturday, March 23 and anyone looking for a New Year challenge can sign up right now using the official event entry form.
Entry to the race for adults (aged 15 and over) costs £15 and due to the limited number of spaces available, all runners are encouraged to raise at least £100 in sponsorship. All money raised from the event will go towards The Arsenal Foundation, the Club's charitable arm that aims to transform the lives of young people through a range of education and sport initiatives in the UK and overseas.
Last year's event was the most successful to date with more than £53,000 raised for the Club's global charity partner, Save the Children.
Click here for images from last year's event
Youngsters aged 14 or under will once again be able to take part in a shorter one or two lap junior race on the day - more information will be available soon at www.arsenal.com/juniorgunners.
And it's not just UK-based supporters who can take part. Last year, for the first time, we opened the event up to global Gooners and were delighted to see individuals and groups from more than 20 countries worldwide take part in their own organised runs to help spread the message of the Club's charitable endeavours around the world.
If you're a non UK-based supporter and would like to get involved in the 2013 event, simply devise a 6.4km route local to where you are - it could be in a park, a beach or even a local sports stadium - and e-mail it with your details to firstname.lastname@example.com.
All successful applicants will receive a unique race number to wear with pride on the day and can also request official race T-shirts in return for a small donation to The Arsenal Foundation.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Hi! I'm so excited... planning on doing a zine-making camp with my high school girl students (I'm an ESL teacher in South Korea), and hope everything turns out well! I don't have too much experience in making zines myself, so my students and I are going to be learning this together.
Hey everyone
I am starting up a Zine Library, it will live at Transit Lounge Caboolture (which is a non for profit youth arts organisation I work for) We are just getting our collection started so the more zines we can add to it the better! We work with local young creative people and will be running some awesome zine workshops :)
If you would like to add to our collection please send your zines to
Transit Lounge Caboolture
PO Box 159
Caboolture, Australia QLD 4510.
Include your return address and I'll send you one back (one of my own or another local zinester) to say thanks.
CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: ASUANG by PAPER MONSTER PRESS
Asuang is an umbrella term for creatures that people our imagination. As blood suckers, they engender in us, a fear of the dark, of morbidity, of paleness, of incense. The fear that desires, the fear that suffocates, not just creatures but open spaces and high places. Fear of beings that when looked at mirrors or through other eyes, resemble perhaps, ourselves? Then here maybe, there be monsters?
Asuang then calls not just for darkness but for hallucinogen, psychedelia, kaleidoscopic narratives in whatever genre.
Specifically, we ask for:
1. 1-3 poems/ essays/ flash fiction (less than 500 words, English or Filipino)
2. 1-3 artworks in black/ white (in JPEG format)
3. 1-3 sound pieces in MP3 or Wav format
4. Critical essays about the small press/ underground publishing/ the culture of fanzines (also under 500 words)
5. Reviews of any issue of Paper Monster Press (and we've done 6 so far)
a. Pyrotechnic Poetry 1
b. Pyrotechnic Poetry 2
c. S/trip-hop
d. Dream(pop)
e. Queer Punk
f. SANDIGmaan
6. A theme for 1 print year
Ex. LOST IN TRANSLATION year
a. Issue 1: Atlantis (about forgetting/ resurfacing/ the abyss/ depths/ drowning/ swan diving)
b. Issue 2: Free Tibet (about culture clash/ Buddhism/ heights/ climbing/ pure dizziness of clouds)
c. Issue 3: Time-space Warp (about timezones/ cultural differences/ time and space/ reincarnation/ and the endless echoes we can never reach)
d. Issue 4: Labyrinths (canals/ road bridges/ the strange and devious routes we take to fantasy/ intoxication/ escape)
1. Send all submissions to firstname.lastname@example.com with the heading: ATTN: ASUANG SUBMISSION
2. The deadline for submissions is on May 31, 2012.
3. Payment is one contributor copy and that warm fuzzy feeling that comes from seeing your name in print. ;)
Trans/Genderqueer Zine Project Call For Submissions
Topic: Essays, anecdotes, comix, collage, & poetry from trans and genderqueer folks telling stories of adolescence and puberty. Take that as broadly or narrowly as you'd like; literally how your body was changing and how your brain was dealing with it, or going to a dance and how that made you feel, to coming out to your family, friends, teachers & classmates.
Audience: 7-12th grade students.
Specifics: The pieces should be free of cursing and super overt sexual content.
Why/Purpose: Puberty and adolescence are hard for everyone but it's extra alienating and difficult when you feel alone and or radically different from everyone else. I want this zine to be an offering to trans and gender queer kids who need to see themselves in print, to know that they are not alone. I want the stories to offer comfort and hope to some young people who may be struggling. I would like the zine to be a resource for trans and gender queer students and a way to open the eyes and hearts of cisgendered students, parents, and teachers.
Send submissions to email@example.com
Please send as a basic word document with "Zine Submission" in the subject line. Art submissions should be 300 dpi scans or for bitmap line art 600 or more.
Send submissions by June 1, 2011. Feel free to e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions.
Hello everyone, I am part of a small cohort of college instructors who teach zine making as a sizable component of a second semester, first year composition course. Our students each research a topic, create an individual text for the web, and then collaborate on a webzine that will incorporate all the student semester projects under one zine published exclusively for the web. The course seems to always be "in progress," so comments about our work is appreciated. Hopefully by the end of the semester, the classes will post a link to their webines.
Hi Zine Educators:
My name's Dawn. I am a former NYC public high school ESL teacher who taught zine-making to my students. Now, I'm in library school studying to become a community college/academic librarian, hopefully.
Anyway, I'm currently in an information literacy pedagogy course, and doing a research process project with the following research question:
"How do high school teachers create effective zine projects to help students of all learning abilities improve in their writing skills?"
If any of you have/know of someone who has/or know of resources where I can find information related to this question, please reply to me at the following email address-
Thanks in advance!
Fresh off the press: It's FruitYoga!
It's 20 pages of the total fun with fruits demonstrating yoga asanas or poses.

Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks will miss his third consecutive game. He has already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns. He hasn't been able to practice this week, and team doctors have told head coach Tom Coughlin that Nicks just needs to rest his ankle and knee injuries.
Fantasy Analysis:
The news gets worse for the Giants' receiving corps as Ramses Barden has been held out of practice this week after being diagnosed with a concussion on Tuesday. He's not expected to be cleared by doctors prior to Sunday's game. Joe Haden is serving the fourth week of his four-game suspension, so it's obviously a plus matchup for the likes of Victor Cruz , a must must-start. But Domenik Hixon is intriguing for another week. Last week versus the Eagles, a game in which Barden was active, Hixon caught six passes for 114 yards, and they weren't all easy catches. Put him in that viable WR3 range for Week 5.

hello fellows. i was just wondering if it is a good idea to start a fett helmet from scratch and if so i would like some blueprints or measurements to get me started.:skull
any reply would be helpful. thanx
scratch built is going to be a looong and very tedious way to go...
and dude...just like 3 topics below...
See my thread on scratch building, it is a very long road and the finished product isn't going to be screen accurate.........but there is one hell of a lot of satisfaction when you achieve the right shape:)
I am following the lead of Kripps, and building a scratch built bucket, too. It is slow, but that's because I work 50-60 hours a week and have a young son and a lot of other time commitments. I would think a young guy with energy to burn could bang one out fairly quick.
I personally am building it from scratch because I want this costume to be all mine. Everything will be crafted to me. I love Fett, but this is also a personal challenge. MS, BM, etc. all make absolutely AMAZING pieces, but they're just not for me. That stuff is theirs, and like I said, fantastic. Plus, I don't have the funds for it. My wife doesn't bother me too much about my Star Wars fanatism, but she would really get on me if I spent thousands of dollars on a costume!
It's all a personal choice. If you want the best, most accurate costume, certainly go with some of the stuff offered here. I doubt you'll be disappointed. If you want a costume just for you, give scratch building a go. When it's said and done, my bucket, before paint, will cost around $30, and that includes $15 for the batting helmet.
And I'm pretty sure everything on Fett was scratch bulit for the movie, so I think scratch built is MORE screen accurate!
Kibosh - that is exactly what i feel. There is stuff out there 100% than my stuff, but it is not mine. My Fett costume is going to be all mine, a personal challange like you said.
Put it there chap Bring on the scratch builts
Well gents,
I concur. I also wish I had the funds to buy pieces from the above mentioned artists.......but I don't so I'll build everything myself.
The helmet has most definately become an obsession for me. This is my 4th and hopefully, actually......with WOF's templates I know this will be my last. There is a certain satisfaction with building things yourself.
Good luck with either decision you make.
well, i would say scratch built if u don't wanna spend a lot of money, but if have a lot, i say buy one instead. i think the highest helmets can go is 150 dollars.Quote:
albertabeeffett said:
Depending on where you live, conversion and shipping rates can make some helmets over $250. Bobamaker's, for example, is listed as $230 USD for the deluxe helmet, not including shipping to the states.

The option to update my graphics card drivers in device manager is not click able so I assume both of my cards are updated, as for being installed I think they are because I can view them in my device manager.

Ok, so, first open the software from the manufacturer, then go to setting an chose to always use the dedicated graphics card.
The other thing, is use max performance setting for power management.

What kind of CPU do you have? If it's a lower end/older model that could be bottlenecking your GPU's performance. Even the best of graphics cards won't perform up to their full potential if the processor is outdated or just bad in general.
Also, knowing exactly what GPU you have will definitely help diagnose your problems.
I hope this helped.

text: I'm down to my last of 3 permits that I was approved for this spring, I scored a Cougar 8000 first,followed by a Sig P250 9mm. So now I've been looking for a full size 1911. Damn there's too many out there. Looked at Kimber,Sig.and Springers. I want an ambi-safty, I'm a lefty. Quite frankly I can't see spending over a grand for that kind of option. I'm not convinced that Kimber and Springfield is the way to go....too much glitter.Sig is a viable option, I have acommander sized 1911 by them and it works great. So I'm looking for the last 3 weeks, pm'ed a member of this forum for guidance. That helped a lot but not enough, then I remembered my transfer ffl is a stocking dealer for STI, I told him I wasn't prepared to pay much more that $1000 total. I get 2 choices the Sparton and the Trogan the Trogan you can option and ambi-safety and enhanced front sight.Total $1086 then add tax, nics and so on. So I'm thinking ,off the Sig P250 and it's mine. I pulled the P250 out of the safe looked at it,felt it in my hand, looked down the slide and sited it in. Couldn't do it, I put it back in the safe. I'll buy the Spartan for $620 and fit my own safety and refinish the ugly paint job it comes with.

Is the Weather Making You Sick?
The weather has been up and down all over the country with some unseasonably hot days, followed by cold days and then warm days in between. At the same time lots of people are experiencing the first colds of the fall season. Funny, I continue to hear the reason I am sick is this weather, hot and cold, up and down, just makes you sick!
But, I am sure that you really do know that the weather change does not make you sick. That seems to be a long-standing old wives tale that my grandmother used to tell us as well. She would also say, don't go to bed with a wet head or you will catch a cold.
The change in weather does not cause illness. It may mess up your wardrobe choices, or cause a last minute change in birthday plans when your outdoor party is moved indoors due to a 30 degree drop in temperature, but it will not cause an illness.
The truth is that viruses live better in cooler weather. Children are spending more time in together in a classroom sharing knowledge and germs. As the weather turns cooler, wetter and gloomier, we all tend to move from outdoor activities to indoor activities. The combination of all of these factors suddenly converge and viral upper respiratory season arrives.
Bottom line: it is not the change in weather that is making you catch a cold, but rather the usual respiratory viruses that are back as the seasons change. It is just the beginning of the cold season, so despite ups and downs with temperatures, the best protection is not a coat, but rather good hand washing and covering those mouths when you cough. Personally, I love this weather; every day is different!

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Thank you for this article. This is actually the first I've ever heard about this accident. It was really heartbreaking. RIP to our brothers. The danger of doing something you love.
God bless everyone. That story was very humbling.
|Done Pallavicini in over 2 feet of pow. Not much of a worry about the whole thing sliding. The new snow is the only worry and that is generally not consolidated enough. It does slough off big time in the steep trees in the lower part of the run. Kind of a pita traversing across too...
|I have dreams of one day shredding Pali face top to bottom in 3 feet of pow (i've only ever seen it pretty much closed or boilerplate rocky moguls) but they have twin nightmares of the whole thing sliding....that is one long steep run.....
|I'm just glad no one got killed. Definitely some major bullets dodged on this one. They got lucky as hell. I'm sure this really shook up A-Basin and their patrol team. That's pretty much a nightmare scenario for them. Green lighting terrain for 14 guests then having them all caught in a large avalanche? Holy fuck. I bet they got a call from their insurance company the next day and caught an earful.
Whoa guys. A-Basin fucked up but this was not out of character either. They had blasted this ridge several times over the past week. The skiers were participating in "directed skiing". This is what ski areas do when a run or runs at just about at that depth where they want to open them for everyone. They let a group of skiers gang fuck the terrain and pack it down a bit. That way when the next decent snow comes they can open it and people are not scraping it all off to the ground.
The biggest problems are that Montezuma bowl is relatively new. They do not have decades of blasting experience and avalanche releases that all ski areas rely on. Meadows, Baker, Squaw, Winterpark, etc. I guarantee that ski patrol took note of that sweet spot the skier hit that triggered this thing. I'm sure that will get blasted all to hell in future seasons. The only big problem I have with it is that they took people in the exact terrain that CAIC had been warning about for the past three weeks.
Good news is, everyone came out alive with one semi minor injury. A skier got a torn MCL. This was an area ski patrol had taken control measures in, this was not backcountry skiing in the normal sense.
Intimate knowledge of terrain really help ski patrol in their mitigation efforts. Even the best areas have accidents though. Remember Alpine Meadows lost a patroller to avalanche control this year. In an area that was always considered a safe zone and they had 60 years of data to back that claim. Unfortunately you get these once in a hundred year conditions that catch the pros off guard. Being that I don't think Montezuma has been open 5 years they missed this nuance.
Again not saying they are without fault, but this was not an irregular action either.
holy fuck. 12 ft crown, down to the ground. they're lucky as hell they didn't get someone killed.
Accident Summary
Preliminary Report:
On February 16th at approximately 2:45pm, a group of riders was caught in an avalanche in Montezuma Bowl at the Arapahoe Basin ski area. The group consisted of 14 customers and 1 ski patroller. The area was closed to the general public, but the group was participating in directed skiing. Directed skiing pairs ski area customers with staff and is conducted in areas with a highly variable snow cover after avalanche hazard mitigation has been completed.
The avalanche released on a south-southeast facing slope at approximately 12,200 feet. The crown face was 330 feet wide and ranged in depth from 16 inches to nearly 12 feet. It was a hard-slab avalanche, triggered by a skier, of medium size relative to the path, large enough to cause significant injury, which broke into old snow and to the ground in places (AS-HS-R3-D2.5-O/G).
CAIC staff visited the site on February 17th, and are conducing a review of the accident with Arapahoe Basin staff. A full report will be available during the week of February 25th.
I noticed the main point of the mistake here seems to be the 16man group, and it is ironic that almost a year to the day later an A-Basin ski patroller takes 14 people into in-bounds avy terrain and gets everyone caught in a pretty big slide. Maybe it isn't my place being no BC expert, but I certainly am one to join ski patrol tours for untouched stuff in bounds via hike, etc...but one person got completely buried, nobody died....WTF!?!
This just happened saturday!!!(CAIC report)
Just a bump.
Today marks the one year anniversary of this accident. For what ever reason this one brought the backcountry into the main stream consciousness. If you haven't read the NYT article in this thread, now is a good time to do so.
RIP guys.

the terrain is a straight-up terrain trap and it was after a big fresh dump.
i'm not trying to be a dickhole or anything here, but noops and people planning on/thinking about getting in to bc riding need to hear this stuff and those already savvy need to objectively take lessons from this. it really can happen to anyone, but there are reasons that this happened and frankly - there was too much stoke.

Prof. Richard Lindzen (MIT) is often described as the most respectable of the climate 'sceptics' and is frequently cited in discussions here and elsewhere. Lindzen clearly has many fundamentally important papers under his belt (work on the QBO and basic atmospheric dynamics), and a number of papers that have been much less well received by the community (the 'Iris' effect etc.). Last year, he gave evidence to and answered questions from, a UK House of Lords Committee investigating the economics of climate change, in which he discoursed freely on the science. I'll try here to sort out what he said.
Firstly, it is clear that Lindzen only signs up to the first point of the basic 'consensus' as outlined here previously, that the planet has indeed warmed significantly over the 20th century. While he accepts that CO2 and other greenhouse gases have increased due to human activities, and that this should warm the planet, he does not accept that it is necessarily an important component in the 20th century rise. His preferred option (by process of elimination) appears to be intrinsic variability, but he provides no support for this contention.
In terms of scientific content, his testimony covers a few basic topics: the greenhouse effect, climate sensitivity, aerosol forcing and water vapour feedbacks. We have discussed these topics previously (here, here and here), and so my critique of Lindzen's comments will come as no surprise. He intersperses his comments with references to 'alarmism' which I will get to at the end.
Greenhouse Effect
Lindzen accepts the main principle of the greenhouse effect, that increasing greenhouse gases (like CO2) will cause a radiative forcing that, all other things being equal, will cause the surface to warm. He uses an odd measure of its effectiveness though, claiming that a doubling of CO2 will lead to a '2%' increase in the greenhouse effect. How has he defined the greenhouse effect here? Well, a doubling of CO2 is about a 4 W/m2 forcing at the tropopause, which is roughly 2% of the total upward longwave (LW) (~240 W/m2). But does that even make sense as a definition of the greenhouse effect? Not really. On a planet with no greenhouse effect (but similar albedo) the upward LW would also be 240 W/m2, but the absorbed LW in the atmosphere would be zero, so it would make much more sense to define the greenhouse effect as the amount of LW absorbed (~150 W/m2). In which case, doubling of CO2 is initially slightly more*, but as soon as any feedbacks (particularly water vapour or ice albedo changes) kick in, that would increase. Due to the non-linearities in the system, you certainly can't multiply the total greenhouse effect of ~33 C by 2% to get any sensible estimate of the climate sensitivity. So it's not clear what relevance the '2%' number has except to make the human additions to the greenhouse effect seem negligible.
*Update: The initial post had an arithmetic error which I have excised (see comment 76 below).

Chevy 350 build
I got a 1979 camaro for free and it had a chevy 350 (2 bolt main) in it so i pulled the 350 and the tranny out of it and striped ithe engine down to the bare block. Now i am uncirtin as too wich parts to put on. I was woundering wich cam, pistons, crank, rods, intake, carb i should go with. I like the crane cams, and want a rough idal and also i am just going to get it homed insted of bored out, is this a smart idea or should i definitly get it tappered to make sure. I know alot of machanics but everyone seems to have diffrent opinions on the matter. This engine is going to be in a old pickup truck but i want it to be pushing around 375 -400 horse and have 10-1 compression. I am going to be running 202 fuley heads too if that makes any diffrence. I saw somewere that this engine only made 135 hp is that true??? sorry for all the questions, thanks for any help.

If you can catch your fingernails on the ridge at the top of the cylinder your engine needs to be bored, most small block chevies with over 80,000 miles do! use a good set of cast flat top pistons and rings, as for a cam thats the builders choice, stay on the mild side, less duration lots of lift. The horsepower maker is the heads, get the best you can afford, NO Camelbacks, unless you can get them for next to free! Aftermkt heads are the cheapest investment for sbc horsepower. use a vac secondary carb on a dual plane street type intake, a good ignition and some street headers and you will have a great running, good sounding powerful street motor.
The old 1 post, jump in and get your feet soaked. If you've never rebuilt an engine before, once you get it tore down you need to have the block cleaned then inspected. That determines which direction you are going to go. If you don't have the money to do it properly then you might as well just hand the money to someone else as the engine will give out a few miles down the road. What kind of money do you have to work with. If you only have a couple of hundred bucks give up the idea of pushing 400 horses out of it 'cuz it ain't gonna happen. At fifteen years old, you better concentrate on getting a good job and saving up some money and get things done right. I hate to sound like I'm preaching but I've seen so many things headed for the scrap heap because someone had some smoke blowed up their patoot by one of their buds saying that their car is pushing 500 horses because they put a cam and a 4 barrel on it. Grab some mags, read up on what it takes to rebuild an engine, go by the book, spend your money wisely, and give up on the 400 horses with a hone job and a cam.
Well have aund 1500 to put into the engine and i could get more. I have had the engine hot tanked and had them put the cam barrings and freez plugs, i have about 5 coats of chevy orange. The cam i am getting for my birth day, so i have around 1500 just for a crank, rods,piston, barrings, manifold, and a bore job if nessisary. All the rest of the parts i will paythe money i have left over and the money i make frome now till then. I make a good amount of money to be able to due this project. as for testing wich ones are you talking about magnaflex blueprinting,yeah right, tappered? thanks for all the help though.
My suggestion is this. Take what you have to a reputable automotive machine shop. Explain to them what you want to do. They will tell you what you need checked andwhat you need to replace. I know that you are going to think that they are in it for the money. You would be right to an extent. They do the work for the money. They also get more work from treating you right and advising you right. You don't expect this to be your only engine do you? Not only will they tell you what you should do, but also what they can do and how much it will cost. Check around and find out who in the area is the best. Don't just ask your buddies. They will feed you a bunch of BS.
Well i just built a 300+hp SBC 350 for 900 bucks, But thats here in alabama.
Well anyway I bought a crank kit for 550$ which came with: Cast crank, Rings, Cam berrings, main/rod berrings, and hypertec flat top pistions, All seals and gaskets.
The cam is a 396 375hp blueprint with a 212/222 .50 duration with a 467/480 lift and 112 deg. lobe sep which was 100 bucks with lifters.
The rest of the money was in the block and head work which was just setting and freshing up the heads. If your not running NOS or turbos u dont need alot of money in it. If you have the money though for heads go with vortec which req a new intake to match the heads.
All in all u can build a decent SBC 350 for 1500 counting all the odds and ends.
Good luck in anything you do with it.
how are you using a 375 HP 396 blueprint cam in a 350 ?
anyway those arent the specs for a 396/375... it would be 242/242 @ .050 .542/.542 114 LSA
You'll prolly need to bore the block(if not great)if ya do go .030+.Have the block magnafluxed and boiled.Also have the shop install the freeze plugs and cam bearings.
I'd reuse the stock crank just have it polished or ground depending.Have the stock rods checked and resized,get a set of cheap cast flat top pistons.
I'd use the Camelhumps especially if they are 2.02s.I'm assuming you have them allready.If not then figure $300 to rebuild um,so if the buying price plus the rebuild cost outwieghts aftermarket then go that way.But if ya got um allready,IMO a $300 rebuild on double humps is way better than dropping $800 on a set of heads for a streetcar.
I'd use 1 5/8 header sand a good duel exhuast.A duel plane intake and a nice Holley carb.
Select your cam and intake/carb to match your rear gearing and tranny and weight and other engine specs.
yep, your biggest cost is goign to be heads and machinework. YOu can use a white box cam and a cheap set of headers on it, along with a low dollar intake. Depending on how you do it you might be able to get away with around 1500, but 2 grand is probably a better guess-
As much as I like working on engines....if I had $1500 and could get more, I'd wait a while and get an already prepared crate motor and save yourself the headache...not to mention you'll have some type of warranty. I realize these motors are more money than $1500, but you could sell the one you have and add to the kitty.

Lukasz Fabianski admits the desire of Olympiacos was the driving force behind Arsenal's defeat to the Greek champions on Tuesday night.
Arsenal succumbed to their first loss of this season's Champions League with a 3-1 reverse in Athens, following a testing evening in Greece.
Fabianski conceded the first but was later substituted after a nasty collision with defender Thomas Vermaelen.
"I think I am fine, it's just a really deep cut," he told Arsenal Player. "It was really unlucky but hopefully all the ligaments in my knee should be OK. Hopefully nothing will come out tomorrow or in the next couple of days.
"I can only talk about the time I was on pitch because afterwards I didn't see anything.
"You could see that Olympiacos were really up for it and they were pushing hard. The first goal we conceded was a bit unlucky because it went off our defender.
"We could have maybe come back in a different way but unfortunately we didn't and that's how it finished."

Hi everyone,
I've recently been eyeballing the PSL as a possible next purchase. Unfortunately, they seem to be a tad hard to find, although I've seen a few floating around random surplus sites and gunbroker.
I was wondering if any forum members own one, and if so, where they purchased theirs, and what their overall opinion was. Thanks in advance!

This week we started our project on the Olympics. Our teacher split us into 4 teams and we each had to choose a country we wanted to represent. The countries chosen were USA, Jamaica, Japan and Brazil. So far this week we have been competing against one other team on Mario and Sonic at London 2012 on our class wii.
The other task our teacher set us was to research the country we had chosen and create a display in our own area. Below are the pictures of what we've done so far.

Vacation home on wheels
Christa and Kurt Johnson of Conifer, Colorado, work in high-class, high-tech industries: She does marketing for resort real estate like the Four Seasons; he's a software developer. But when they're on vacation, they don't call down for room service or complain about the Wi-Fi. They hit the road hauling a 44-year-old Serro Scotty trailer, in search of mountain lakes where cell phones can't find a signal and starlight serves as the entertainment.
A couple of years ago at a fly-fishing show, Christa saw a display of vintage trailers. Taken with the idea of a wilderness vacation that wouldn't involve a tent, Christa fell for the iconic Serro Scotty trailer—a brand once common on Western highways. "Kurt thought I was a nutcase," says Christa, who spent a lot of time online, searching for a not-too-expensive model (used Scottys can range from $500 to $2,500) that wouldn't require too much work. "The morning I saw the ad for ours, I knew we had to go see it—even though it was two hours away."

Junior Emily Litwin was named the MAAC Libero of the Week on Tuesday, winning the award for the second time this season.
Litwin posted 23 digs in the team's four-set win at Niagara last week, the fourth time in the last five matches that Litwin has had 20 or more digs. The junior also was 23-for-24 on service receptions in the match. Litwin served out the first set when Canisius won the final five points, capped by a service ace from the Williamsville, N.Y. native.
Litwin is averaging 4.71 digs per set on the season, which ranks 54th in the country and second in the conference. The Williamsville, N.Y. native has recorded double-digit digs in 20 of the team's 21 matches.
Canisius returns to the Koessler Athletic Center for two matches this weekend. The Golden Griffins open the weekend against Rider, with match time set for 1 p.m. on Saturday, which will serve as the team's annual Dig Pink match as the Griffs raise money for the Side-Out Foundation.
All matches will be available on a video broadcast through the Golden Griffin Broadcast Network on GoGriffs.com.

Very nice. Are those observation windows?SH
Mike, are you following the exact warre' method or are you modifying it?
One of the talking points about the warre hive, is that you should not open the hive but for couple times a year, etc. Which is crap to me
To be more specific, I think the hive looks great but I was wondering what your plans are for this hive.Are you following the warre' method or just some of it or none of it?I ask because I am curious about that method and the idea of bottom supering.So?
This was todays project. Bees go in Tuesday.

Just no defence for state of affairs in Maple Leaf land
Buffalo 5, Toronto 3
'"I think we're getting an idea of what we can be,'' Sabres coach Lindy Ruff said. "The team has really played well offensively.'''
Buffalo 5, Toronto 3
'"I like what I'm seeing now," Buffalo coach Lindy Ruff said. "I said I didn't really know what we were, but we're getting an idea of what we can be. Guys like playing with each other, guys have some chemistry now."'
Pregame Warmup: Sabres vs. Toronto
Tonight's contest will mark Buffalo's 131st game against Toronto … The Sabres are 67-46-17 against the Maple Leafs and Buffalo is 3-5-2 against the Maple Leafs in the last 10 meetings but is 7-1-2 in the last 10 contests at HSBC Arena
Sabres activate Boulton; demote Pittis
'Boulton, who led Buffalo with 178 penalty minutes last season, has been out since breaking his left thumb in a fight during a training camp scrimmage last month.'
Leadership? Drury shows he's game
'"He's been a gamer," Ruff said, "in every sense of the word."'
Afinogenov chafing in street clothes
'"I thought his puck support was poor in the games he played. That all leads to negative shifts. We know he's got some tools, and we've got to get back and get him working."'
Sabres vs. Maple Leafs
'Rory Fitzpatrick leads the team with a plus-4 rating.'
Drury gives Sabres an edge
'"I still think of myself as a young player, but I have been around the block a little bit and hopefully I can pass along some of that knowledge to the younger guys," Drury said. "I can't imagine what it was like last year (when the Sabres were engulfed in financial woes before being bought by Tom Golisano). Everyone is pretty charged up now."'
Buffalo routine shuffled
'Coach Pat Quinn, who is aware of the team's dismal 2-12-3 record at the HSBC Arena, has tried everything short of voodoo to change his team's fortunes.'
Maple Leafs watch
''"I heard some of the guys talking about (past problems in Buffalo) but I don't get caught up in past history. This is a different team," he said. "I don't think that stuff should be in our heads."'
Hustling Taylor earns his minutes
'Shift after shift of hustle. Shift after shift of efficiency. Shift after shift of non-descript yet oh-so-solid play.'
Sabres aren't Wild about effort in loss on home ice
'"The road trip takes a little bit out of you," McKee said. "I know guys were a little bit winded tonight. "(We're not) gonna sit here making excuses for ourselves," he said.'
Special teams trip up Sabres
'The Sabres fell to 0-5 when giving up the first goal. They're 5-0 when they score first.'
Spunky squad developing Razor's edge
'Forget what happened Tuesday night against the Minnesota Wild. Tie that 3-1 defeat to an anchor and drop it to the bottom of the lake. The Sabres were spent and out of sorts, a predictable state considering they'd been home less than 36 hours following the longest road trip in franchise history. It wasn't until the third period that they even began to find their legs.'

Arsenal Ladies Japan Charity Tour 2011
Ryo and Faye White
Arsenal Ladies have been in Japan for an 11-day tour in a bid to raise funds for the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami relief effort.
Arsenal Ladies were invited by the Educational Foundation Goto Gakuen Musashigaoka College and the treble winners took part in three matches during their stay from November 25 to December 5, with all funds raised going to the appeal.
With Japan emerging victorious in last summer's Women's World Cup in Germany, the Ladies tested themselves against the very best in the game.
The first fixture, in which they faced the winners of the national Women's Football League, allowed Laura Harvey's side to do just that. Their opponents were INAC Kobe, winners of Japan's Women's Football League. The match was played on Wednesday, November 30 at the National Stadium in Tokyo.
The Ladies also played two further games during their stay. The first was a behind-closed-doors match against the Musashigaoka College on December 2. The third was against 11-time league winners NTV Beleza at the Tama City Athletic Field on December 4.
It is the first time that the Gunners, who have travelled to Africa and the USA previously, have played in East Asia in their 24-year history, and the trip follows hot on the heels of the men's hugely successful summer Asia Tour to Malaysia and China.
