Or if you're like us, ten of them. So, before you start your spring shopping spree, take a peek at these totally adorkable Jess-inspired outfits.

However, I would like to be able to hibernate my root login as well. Any help?
In the task tray, or whatever it would be called in *nix, there is an image of either a power plug, or a battery.

Minneapolis, MN (SportsNetwork.com) - Danny Santana went 4-for-5 with five RBI to guide the Minnesota Twins to an 8-0 victory over the Houston Astros in the middle tilt of a three-game set at Target Field on Saturday.
Kyle Gibson (5-5) was just as impressive, firing seven scoreless innings of three-hit ball with a season-high five strikeouts to notch just his second win in nine starts.
Josh Willingham and Chris Parmelee each drove in a run for the Twins, who snapped a two-game losing skid.
"He's swinging it really good," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said of Santana. "He came up in some big situations and was really driving the ball."
Houston starter Scott Feldman (3-4) lasted just 1 2/3 innings, allowing three unearned runs on one hit with two walks.
Dexter Fowler accounted for two of the five hits for Houston, which had its two-game winning streak come to an end.
The Twins took advantage of two Astros' errors in the second to start the scoring.
Willingham was hit by a pitch to start the inning. Trevor Plouffe reached on third baseman Matt Dominguez's fielding error and Kurt Suzuki worked a one-out walk to load the bases. Aaron Hicks reached first on shortstop Marwin Gonzalez's fielding error, allowing Willingham to score. Santana's two-out base hit to right drove in two to make it 3-0.
"Our defense didn't help us," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "(Feldman) did have trouble commanding the strike zone today, but defensively we didn't help ourselves with two plays we usually make."
Houston reliever Paul Clemens walked two to begin the fourth and Hicks' sacrifice bunt moved advanced the runners. Santana laced a two-run double to center to score Suzuki and Eduardo Escobar. Willingham's two-out single to left scored Brian Dozier from second and two consecutive walks made it a 7-0 game.
Santana singled to center in the seventh to increase the cushion to 8-0 scoring Suzuki, who reached on a base hit.
Game Notes
Houston finished 1-for-5 with runners in scoring position while leaving eight men on base ... Clemens allowed four runs on two hits and five walks in just two innings of relief ... The Twins are 17-11 all-time against the Astros.

Tornados Edged on Senior DayOctober 20, 2012
Brevard, N.C.- The Brevard College women's soccer team was edged 1-0 by the Pfeiffer Falcons on Saturday afternoon.
Pfeiffer's Kayla Rodriguez scored what would prove to be the game-winning goal in the 39th minute of the first half.
Rodriguez dribbled outside of the box, drilling the ball home to the upper right side of the net at 38:03 to give the Falcons a 1-0 lead.
BC fired seven shots in the match, with only one landing on goal. Lizzie Graham fired the shot on goal for a chance to tie the game late in the second half. Graham sent the ball towards the goal 72nd minute, but Pfeiffer keeper Bianca Moeller collected it for the save.
Tornados keeper Brittany Webster warded off a number of Pfeiffer scoring opportunities throughout the game, saving five shots on the afternoon. Webster now has 128 saves in the 2012 campaign.
The Tornados women's soccer team celebrated the careers of their four seniors with a ceremony at halftime. Defender Hannah Graham, forward Teresa Musick, forward Chantel Azevedo, and midfielder Carolyn Anderson were all escorted to midfield and recognized for their accomplishments both on and off the field during their careers at Brevard College.
The Tornados play their final home game of the 2012 season on Wednesday, October 24th as they host South Atlantic Conference opponent Newberry College at 4 p.m.

Unity Connection - create user account without mailbox?
I have to create a couple user accounts in UNity Conenction to allow the user to be searchable via the auto attendant. My question is can I create an account in Unity Connection (7.1.3b) without creating a mailbox? I have a couple users that need accounts, the phone accounts are just going to then be forwarded to outside DIDs so they dont actually need Voicemail boxes in our system.
Any advice is appreciated, thanks
Hey Luke,
I'll just add an example to the good tips from Yosh (+5 "Y")
In my test I'm using 8600 as the newly created "Contact" in CUC
If I dial our main AA I can find 8600 in the voice enabled directory, and
I can also find 8600 via a dial by extension directory but without
changing the active greeting setting;
Allow Transfers to Numbers Not Associated with Users or Call Handlers
and the Default System transfer restriction table I can't direct dial 8600 from AA
So I must adjust the Default System transfer restriction table as below;
The top most rule in our Default System transfer restriction table is
and is blocked on our system
But if I add 86??* above it in the table;
86??* - allow
This now allows transfers (direct dial) to the 86xx range of numbers even if they do not have a mailbox
on Unity Connection
Hi Luke,
You can create Contacts without any regard to your current LDAP config

Between them we've counted three Oscar nominations, 11 Emmys and 11 NAACP Image Awards. This year's honorees—Oprah Winfrey, Alfre Woodard, Mara Brock Akil, Gabrielle Union, Naomie Harris and Quvenzhane Wallis—have given us plenty to be proud of onscreen and behind the scenes. Here's some of our favorite moments of these honorees from the big and small screen.

To construct a gigantic telescope complex on that most sacred and ecologically vulnerable summit, the University of Arizona (UA) lobbyists went to Congress on behalf of a special-interest group of astronomers. In the final hours of the 1988 Congress, without hearings or debate, they slipped in a radical, precedent-setting legislative back-door "rider" to a bill. UA lawyers have subsequently spent millions in court arguing that this "rider" exempts them from U.S. religious, environmental protection, and cultural heritage laws!
While the defenders of this sacred mountain and its endangered species and ecosystem thus far have not permanently stopped this national ethical travesty, they have achieved several court victories. The telescope builders at the University of Arizona (UA) have only been able to build on Mt. Graham because they have twice introduced special-interest legislative exemptions to slide around U.S. law.
One of the most shameful aspects of the telescope project is that it is the first willful, selfish attempt of its kind by a U.S. university -- to try to exempt itself from the religious, environmental, and cultural heritage protection laws of this nation. People who respect these fundamental laws are outraged that any university would engage in such unethical conduct.

Or, says McDonald, Jefferson may have been expressing an "Aristotelian idea."
Forsake Plato if you must,—but you may do so only at the price of justifying yourself in the terms of Aristotelian arithmetic.
But this does not seem in consonance with the Aristotelian use of these terms.
The third great Aristotelian principle follows directly from these two.
And here his method of proving the existence of matter is Aristotelian and new.
But that philosophy is merely a theory, like the Aristotelian scientific theories so firmly believed in the middle ages.
But, above all, the Aristotelian biological works were fertilizers of the mind.
We find no development worthy of notice in Aristotelian ethics (see Peripatetics).
The rediscovery of the Aristotelian biology is a modern thing.
And this leads us to another important conception in the Aristotelian philosophy.

Suspected human trafficking at Saudi diplomatic house outside DC
A Department of Homeland Security investigation has raised concerns that diplomats from Saudi Arabia are bringing that country's practices of human rights abuse and trafficking to the United States. The investigation comes after two Philippine women were removed Tuesday from a McLean, Virginia, house belonging to the armed forces of the Islamic monarchy.
The women, who were officially employees at the house, were removed from the home by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers after rumors of human trafficking surfaced, reports the Washington Examiner.

In the second game of Saturday's twin bill, the Aeros suffered just their third shut out of the season and had to settle for a doubleheader split with a 7-0 loss to visiting Altoona.

Alaska Zandaam Cruise: Zaandam Cruise Review by amc2828
Overall Member Rating
Alaska Zandaam Cruise
Destination: Alaska
Embarkation: Seward
We also did a 3 day pre-cruise tour of Denali National Park. The land part of the tour was perfect and I recommend it whole-heartedly. I think this is a must see/do in Alaska.
The trip was great overall, but I don't think Holland America truly lives up to its reputation as providing excellent service.
In general, it seems that Holland apologizes a lot for its shortcomings but does nothing to fix the issues or truly address your problem.
The first night, I wanted extra blankets in the room bc it was cold. When I called the front desk, they said they would put in our request. One hour More later. No blankets. Then I called again. Same response. Another hour later, I asked what the issue was. The woman hung up on me. When I called back, she accused me of hanging up on her. Totally untrue. I then asked for a supervisor, which she could not reach. Then she offered to have the person in charge of my stateroom floor come by. When he came he had no knowledge of the request. I explained that we just wanted extra blankets and had been waiting 3 hours and was hung up on by the woman at the front desk. He brought the blankets and apologized. Just a minor incident, but even a motel 8 functions better than this. A simple request from a tired and cold traveller should not be that difficult to accomodate. Plus the rudeness of the woman at the front desk was uncalled for. So lots of apologies and 3 hours later we got our blankets.
ALSO, just a word of CAUTION when booking your air fare through Holland America. On my June trip on the MS Zaandaam to Alaska, they booked our flights home through Air Canada on PROP PLANES WITHOUT WARNING US. I was horrified to reach the 2nd leg of the trip and be confronted with flying in in thunderstorm on prop planes.
When I called HA for help to re-book or re-route, they explained that from Toronto to the Mid-west there are no planes other than prop planes. They could have flown us anwyere in the US or Canada to get home, but they chose this terrible route and stuck us on prop planes.
I refused to get on and had to rent a car and drive 5 hours (at midnight), all night to get home.
When I complained that I wanted a refund for the air or for the car rental, all they did was offer us a $100 credit and blame us for not calling the airline to confirm the make of the plane....
Even on orbitz they have to disclose if you get on a prop plane.
In general the trip to Alaska was great, but I think the so-called great customer service of HA is a farce. All they do is apologize a lot but do nothing to fix anything. I have other petty examples, but this flight nightmare was egregious I think.
I give HA 3 stars. The ship and service etc do not measure up to that of a 4 star Marriot or Hilton, but are adequate. The trip itself to Alaska was amazing bc it's amazing and the activities are incredible. Less

All of Atlantic Blowers' motors come standard with thermistors, devices that automatically shut down operation of the motor when the motor reaches a set temperature. The use of thermistors assists in decreasing continuous motor overload and motor burnout.
Atlantic Blowers' bearings are sealed bearings as standard. Sealed bearings allow for low maintenance and long lasting life by keeping particulates and unwanted debris out of the bearings.
Our compressors, vacuum pumps, and traditional blowers are energy efficient, conserving energy by requiring less horsepower to produce greater pressure and flow helping to ensure low running costs.

MONTPELIER — Legislation introduced last week in the Vermont House by Rep. Diane Lanpher, D-Vergennes, and two colleagues is intended to make it more difficult for those responsible for the many recent burglaries in Addison County and Vermont to dispose of stolen goods.
BRANDON — The drug problem in Vermont has long economic fingers that have gripped the state. Drug abuse increases police budgets and raises taxes. It is a public health issue and increases insurance premiums. It adds to the prison population, and therefore, the state corrections budget. It contributes to the high school dropout rate. It feeds poverty. It destroys families. It breaks hearts.
Editor's note: This story has been updated since it was originally posted to add information on other drug busts in the county.
FERRISBURGH — Vergennes and Vermont State Police on Monday arrested two Ferrisburgh men and one Cornwall man on a number of drug charges, most notably the sale of heroin.
This was the latest in a string of arrests involving the sale of heroin in Addison County.
VERGENNES/LEICESTER — Vergennes police on Tuesday — with a major assist from Vermont State Police — arrested three people in Leicester and charged them with selling heroin after finding more than 350 bags of the drug, $3,670 of cash, marijuana, and a stolen firearm at a Fern Lake Road home.
Police said the street value of each bag ranged from $20 to $30 per bag, meaning the street value of the drug seized by police on Wednesday ranged from $7,000 to $10,500.
MIDDLEBURY/HANCOCK — Three Hancock residents appeared at the Addison County Courthouse on Wednesday, Nov. 21, to plead innocent to drug-related crimes in connection with an alleged methamphetamine operation at a home at 2698 Route 125 in Hancock.
It is the first substantial meth case to be prosecuted in Addison County.
BRANDON — As a result of recent raids on Brandon residences, police have seized more than two pounds of marijuana and busted a Brandon man for alleged illegal tattooing.
On Sept. 12 officers executed a search warrant at 41 Carver St., Brandon, which Police Chief Christopher Brickell identified as the apartment of 23-year-old Adam Collis and another occupant. As a result of the warrant Collis is facing two criminal charges of possession of marijuana and practicing tattooing without a license. Police also seized tattooing equipment from the residence.
BRISTOL — The Bristol Police Department executed a search at a Mountain View Street apartment on Sept. 9, finding 1,500-2,000 used hypodermic needles, heroin, morphine, and a substance that Chief Kevin Gibbs said may possibly be crack cocaine.
Police charged Amy Norton, 38, with possession of heroin and morphine. A second suspect, whose charges are pending while police await test results on the third substance, will likely face charges of possession of crack cocaine.

Motorist Information Signs (MIS) are placed along state highways to alert travelers about the services available at an interchange or intersection. MIS are blue or brown panels with individual business logo signs attached. Travelers searching for gas, food, lodging, camping, recreation, tourist activities, or 24-hour pharmacy will see your business logo sign.
The MIS program is a great way to advertise. Washington State highways carry hundreds of thousands of people every day. A logo sign on a freeway or express way with more than 80,000 cars daily costs about $2.50 a day. A logo sign on a two lane highway in a rural area costs only $1.00 a day for thousands of views.
Interested in joining our program and getting your business logo in front of the motoring public? Please review our eligibility requirements to see if you qualify. Then take a moment to look at our frequently asked questions section to see if we can answer some of your inquiries. To fill out a MIS application, just click on the application link above, fill out the form, and submit – it's just that simple.
Still have questions? Contact your local MIS representative for further assistance.

Institute Kicks off 50th Anniversary Celebration with Chihuly at the Salk
The bold iconic laboratory buildings of the Salk Institute will receive an equally dramatic jolt of colorful artwork April 22-27 when the Institute kicks off its 50th anniversary celebration with Chihuly at the Salk - an outdoor installation of sculpture by artist Dale Chihuly.
The celebratory event is open to the public for day and some evening guided tours ($15/ticket), in the course of which visitors can experience Chihuly's fantastically colorful and expressive glass pieces. The artwork will be positioned throughout the grounds of the Salk Institute, marking the first time a Chihuly installation has ever been displayed at a working research institution.
"This fusion of extraordinary scientific, architectural and artistic creativity is indicative of the true spirit of our founder, Jonas Salk," said Salk Institute President William R. Brody. "We are absolutely delighted that we can open our doors to the public to share this unique experience. And we are deeply appreciative of the generous sponsorship of Joan and Irwin M. Jacobs that made this exhibit possible."
Chihuly's The Sun and White Tower, each standing about 15 feet tall, are among the largest sculptures that will be set against the Salk's austere, angular buildings and courtyard overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and in the adjacent eucalyptus grove.
Other signature pieces on display will include Niijima Floats, large spheres–up to 40 inches in diameter and approximately 60 pounds–with surfaces richly colored in gold and silver leaf and foil; Chandeliers, large hanging sculptures assembled from hundreds of colorful, tentacle-like glass components; Reeds, translucent spears that appear to jut out from the ground.
A lecture and book signing ($50/ticket) with the artist is scheduled on April 25 from noon-2 p.m. in the Salk Institute's Frederic de Hoffmann Auditorium. Chihuly will discuss some of his most significant exhibits from around the world and touch on the installation at the Salk and the landmark architecture that inspired it. A 15-minute Q&A session will follow.
Chihuly has led the avant-garde in the development of glass as a fine art. His work is included in more than 200 museum collections worldwide. He has created many well-known series of works, among them the Baskets, Persians, and Seaforms, but he is also celebrated for large architectural installations.

"Surprised that the corn actually cooked through. We first tried to cook it in the oven because of my aversion to the grill. It worked, but we weren't sure how to convert the cooking style. I think we put it in at 325 for 40 minutes. If someone else has done it successfully in the oven I would love to know how to do it right."

History lessons
Why? Well, in the process of building our new kitchen last year, Stu discovered a stack of newspapers printed on November 2, 1960, that appeared to have been wedged behind the cupboards during the building process. It's hard to explain why, but both of us were really stoked to have found a piece of history about our home. It's like our home had shared a secret with us and revealed a bit about itself.In the last couple of weeks, I started on a little project with the newspapers. By using decoupage techniques, I was able to 'iron' out the creases in the paper to create a collage and then I proceeded to put them in frames for the living room.
It was such an enjoyable task; I am so happy to have a piece of history of my home in my home. I had also studied the newspaper with great interest; I love the retro fonts, the illustrated advertisements selling lingerie, cars, furniture and thought it very ironic that the same issues that were being reported in 1960 (ie. rising costs, employment rates) are still very much modern day problems.

WOW that is very neat. I would have been over the moon finding something like that.
When I purchased my 1930s Vanity table from a antique store I was thrilled to see a piece of torn paper sticking in the bottom of one of the drawers. Sadly it was not majorly old.... but it ended up being Obituaries... LOL Not such a exciting find.

One of the most important steps you can take when preparing to go to court is preparing your "evidence." Evidence is information a party can present in court to prove their case.
Evidence can be in 2 main forms:
1. Witness testimony (people):
- The party involved in the lawsuit;
- Other people who have direct and relevant information about the case;
- People who keep relevant records; or
- Experts qualified to given an opinion about some aspect of the case.
Usually, any witnesses must be present in court for the hearing or trial.
2. Exhibits (things):
- Documents or objects used to prove your case (or disprove the other side's);
- Photographs; or
- Records: police records, medical records, bills, appraisals, school records, financial statements, etc.
To prepare your evidence:
Researching the rules of evidence
There are rules of evidence that everyone must follow. These rules exist to make sure that the judge gets reliable, relevant, and accurate evidence to consider when making decisions about your case.
Some of the most important rules are:
There are many laws that set rules for what evidence can be used in court. Together, these laws are called the California Evidence Code. You will have to follow these rules even if you are self-represented. You will not get any special treatment just because you are not a lawyer. And the judge and the court staff cannot help you prepare or present your case.
Click to see a handout which explains getting your evidence for court.
In addition to reading the Evidence Code, you can also go to your public law library and ask the librarian for books that talk about and explain the rules of evidence.
Here is a video courtesy of Greater Bakersfield Legal Assistance with tips for what you should and shouldn't do when you go to court:
The following guidelines should always be followed in court:

Theater review by David Cote. Vivian Beaumont Theater (see Broadway). By Holland Taylor. Dir. Benjamin Endsley Klein. With Taylor. 2hrs. One intermission.
Okay, we know that everything's bigger in Texas, but does Ann, a tribute to ex-Lone Star State Governor Ann Richards (1933–2006), really need to be in a Broadway house? The one-woman show—woven from Richards's speeches, her coworkers' anecdotes and the author's affectionate invention—covers a fair amount of its subject's eventful life and the divisive issues that roiled her single term. But is the piece theatrically ample enough to deserve the Vivian Beaumont?
Yes and no. On the one hand, Taylor is a wonderfully engaging, sparkly presence who wears the role like a second skin. You utterly believe her Richards: a dryly ribald, steel-spined diva of Democratic politics who stepped onto the world stage when she gave the keynote speech at the 1988 Democratic National Convention in Atlanta. Whether cracking R-rated jokes about bestiality, or advising President Clinton on a Supreme Court nominee, she's fully in command, managing multiple pieces of gubernatorial business while juggling allies and underlings on the phone with an alacrity that would make Kushner's Roy Cohn flush with envy.
But the play around this dynamic performer is uneven: chicken-fried hagiography about Richards's youth and final years sandwiching a tastier center of office business. We watch her at work, planning a family outing while dealing with a variety of state matters: nuclear waste, immigration and the death penalty. (These bits are lively and informative; 90 minutes of them might have made for a stronger overall vehicle.)
For all the patchiness of the text, Ann is still quite diverting. Just as I'm sure Richards mitigated unpopular compromises with down-home charisma, Taylor's winning performance helps us ignore her small, shaky platform.—David Cote

Bench Buddies Series: Tsuyoshi Nishioka
This got me thinking about the rest of the players who could be making an impact on the Twins during the 2012 campaign. The team has seen the departure of a variety of players who played a role off of the bench during the last couple of seasons. Jason Repko, Matt Tolbert, and Jim Thome will all be wearing different uniforms next season (or possibly no uniform). This will leave the Twins with a different crop of players to compete for playing time off of the bench.
This series of posts has been given the name "Bench Buddies" and the first piece focused on the role of Trevor Plouffe. Another player with a lot to prove in 2012 is former Japanese star Tsuyoshi Nishioka. The Twins gave him a decent amount of money to produce at the big league level and he has not met expectations at this point.
2011 stat summary: .226/.278/.249, 0 HR, 5 DBL, 19 RBI, 14 R, 68 G
2011 season story-line: There was quite the buzz in the offseason after the Twins outbid all other teams in Major League Baseball for the services of a young middle infielder by the name of Tsuyoshi Nishioka. He had just won the Japanese League batting title and was awarded a Gold Glove for his defensive skills at shortstop. By jumping into the market for Japanese players, the Twins hoped to broaden their international appeal and to develop a star in the middle of their infield. It didn't take long for most of those dreams to come crashing to the ground.
In only his sixth game in America, Nishioka would suffer a leg injury that kept him out of the line-up until mid-June. The Twins were in Yankee Stadium to face off against the team who eliminated them from the playoffs in 2010. Mark Teixeira hit a grounder to Twins third baseman Danny Valencia, who threw the ball to Nishioka at second. Nishioka recorded the out at second and threw on to first, but Swisher slid into the planted left leg of Nishioka. It was a clean slide on the part of the Yankees outfielder but Nishioka had suffered a broken fibula because he hadn't tried to avoid the slide from Swisher.
Following the leg injury, the Twins decided to move Nishioka from second base back to shortstop, the position he played in Japan. There were very few positives during his time as the shortstop of the Twins. His defense was atrocious and it seemed he liked to use his chest more than his glove to try and stop the ball. As a switch hitter, he struggled from both sides of the plate but the right side was slightly worse. While batting from the right side, he hit .203/.222/.241 and when he switched sides he batted .239/.308/.254. The two approaches he takes from each side are different and it was hard for Nishioka to find a rhythm with his transition to the US.
2012 role and expectations: The case of Nishioka's value in 2012 is a perplexing one to answer for the Twins organization. His skills on the field in 2011 did not seem worth his spot on the 25-man roster. There were errors on the defensive side of the ball and very few positives from an offensive standpoint. The Twins have brought in Jamey Carroll to start at shortstop and Alexi Casilla will be given every opportunity to hold down second base. If Nishioka is on the bench, what value can he provide the team? He would not be a good player to be used as a defensive replacement. It would be silly to use him as a pinch hitter at any point in the late innings. In 68 games last year, he only managed two steals in six attempts so being a pinch runner also seems out of the question.
It can be a challenge to find a positive in the 2011 season for Nishioka. There were gradual improvements with his batting numbers as the season progressed. His batting average increased in each of the last three months of the season. From the beginning of August until the beginning of September, he hit .273/.324/.288 in 66 at-bats over 22 games. The first year transition from a foreign league to the pace of MLB can be hard for some to handle. Nishioka's injury in the first handful of days in the season was also a major kink in his learning curve. If he continues to make some subtle changes, there could still be some value to be found in this infielder.
Terry Ryan and the rest of the front office for the Twins are hoping to wipe his slate clean for the coming season. The club has given him offseason objectives and there is a chance he could squeak into a starting role if there were some major improvements since the end of last year. The Twins have put their hope in Casilla's ability to start before and that plan has not always worked out in favor of the team. Nishioka has a year under his belt in the U.S. and the good news is the 2012 season can't be much worse than last year for Mr. Nishioka.

A couple comments...
1. I wouldn't call Nishioka's defense at shortstop good, but I wouldn't call it atrocious. Food for thought: Tsuyoshi had 10 errors in 60 games at SS. Trevor Plouffe had 11 errors in 45 games at SS. THAT'S atrocious.
2. As I watched Tsuyoshi, his biggest issues seemed to be fielding on natural grass, learning the strike zone, power, and communication on the field. He had great range, speed, and bat control. So I think it's possible to see a dramatic improvement--but I'm only hoping, not counting on it.
3. Even if Nishioka doesn't develop into an everyday MLB player, it's not totally sunk costs for the Twins business wise. Japan provides 60% of MLB's outside the US income, and it primarily goes to the teams the 18 or so Japanese players play on. It might sound like an insignificant source or revenue but it really isn't; so the Twins have most likely gotten some good revenue out of and increased their fan base through Nishioka despite him sucking (whether this continues if he still doesn't perform... I dunno).

Oh, in addition to #3--the teams with Japanese players get more broadcasting on NHK in Japan, so the Japanese fan base gets exposed to the rest of the team as well. I even met some Japanese fans who came to Target Field in 2010 (before Nishioka) just to see Joe Mauer. Can only think the increased exposure helps.

Earthquake, tsunami, new language, new culture, new job, new wife, broken leg, new child, divorce(?), and he has to play in that mixed -up clubhouse. I am amazed he did as well as he did. His stress levels must have been phenomenal.
- February 9, 2012 at 10:05 AM
Why didn't Nishioka play winter ball in the Dominican Republic or elsewhere? Wouldn't this have helped him learn the western game of baseball?

text: Margaret, I don't understand why so many esteemed members of this group want to assume that Lee would have sent as small a force as possible across the Susquehanna and then pulled it back as soon as possible. If Lee intended to move Ewell's Corps and Hill's Corps across the river (as he stated) it's a pretty safe bet he wasn't going to leave Longstreet's on the other side of a water barrier. I think it's not unreasonable to speculate that Lee, the most audacious commander of the war, might have been willing to fight the AoP east of the Susquehanna. There are some caveats, however. He would need all his cavalry with him; detailed information on the locations of the various Union corps; and the confidence that the AoP corps were exhausted, strung out by a rushed pursuit, and not in position to provide meaningful support to one another. Risky? You bet. But Lee was never afraid of risk. History has a number of audacious commanders burning their boats and telling troops "We win or we die."

The Sure Can made its debut at the most recent National Hardware Show. It's not yet available for purchase; the company that developed the can was there to find vendors willing to distribute it. The product grabbed my attention because many contractors dislike CARB compliant gas cans—which empty slowly and are more difficult to use than the old-style cans they're intended to replace. Even some the best CARB compliant cans are not immune to these problems.
Sure Can works like this: The nozzle swivels down from the bottom of the can but will not dispense fuel until you press the thumb trigger to open a self-ventilating valve. It allows you to dispense without tipping the can and with the nozzle at almost any angle (video below).
The self-ventilating part is important because one of the things a CARB compliant can does not have is that little pop cap on top that allows it to dispense fuel quickly and without chugging. I can't say for sure how well the self-ventilation feature works because the demonstration I saw took place at a booth in a convention center and they dispensed water into a glass. It seemed like it worked and I can report that the nozzle didn't drip if you gave it a few seconds to drain after releasing the trigger. When not dispensing the nozzle can be rotated to vertical against the side of the can and a cap screwed over it. There's a large cap at the opposite end for filling the vessel.
Sure Can is a brand new product and is not yet available for purchase. It is currently undergoing testing for CARB compliance. The person I spoke to at the Hardware Show said a 2-gallon model will be out this summer and sell for about $28. The company is working on a 5-gallon can that is scheduled to come out in the spring of 2015. The price for that model has not been set. Both cans will be made in Utah—where Surecan Inc. is based.

Last night I was able to go to a party that my church was throwing for young single adults. I had a blast and was so glad I went. Two of my friends and myself planned our outfits to go together. They were a BIG hit!
idea via
The party was hoppin'...
There were a bunch of festivities going on as well as the dancing- a bonfire with ghost stories, "scary" movies (and by "scary" I mean PG-13), karaoke, limbo, as well as a pie eating contest (makin' me sick to even look at the picture), and a costume contest. We were the favorites to win and in the end a robot beat us... WHAT?!
There were a TON of people there and everyone was dressed in such amazing costumes! These are just some pictures that were snuck onto my camera...
Like I said, it was so much fun! I'm really glad I went!
Now, time to get even more into the Halloween spirit...
Do you believe in ghosts? I don't like to say either way... why tempt them?? If you don't, here are some ghost stories that might make you change your mind...
A little while ago my old ballet teacher Amy, posted on her blog a picture that her sister had taken while in England. I haven't forgotten this picture and I so I asked Amy if I could share it with you today. I stole her explanation of it too- I felt she could explain it better than I could:
What do YOU think?
A couple days ago Lauren shared some videos of "ghosts at Disneyland" on her blog and I couldn't resist sharing them too.
Do you see the "person" walking around?! What?!
As I was watching this a second time it looks as if the hitchhiking ghost is wearing a cast member name tag... and I would know what those look like!
This ones a little harder to see. But CRAZY if you can see it. Looks as if the ghost is having a fun time watching all the scared guests faces until- it just disappears...
Can anyone explain those??
Ok, back to the fun and games. :)
The other night my mom held her annual Halloween Witches Party. This is where she gets a bunch of friends from our neighborhood together, they all dress up as witches (I did her makeup and hair this year), and they have dinner etc. This year it was a Bunco party...
They're all awesome. :)
I have to add in this picture of my sister and her family in their Halloween costumes. It is just TOO cute!! Look at my niece/the chicken's feet! Rubber gloves! Hilarious! My niece/the chicken won the costume contest at their party! :D
Well, sorry it was such a long post. But I had so many things to show you! It was just my way of throwing a little blogger Halloween party. But I'd love for you to join by linking up any of your Halloween themed posts!
Happy Sunday everyone!
P.S. If you haven't entered the Printed Peaks Giveaway- do so now!

Calcifications are tiny deposits of calcium in your breast tissue. They are often seen on a mammogram.
Calcifications on mammograms
The calcium you eat or take in medicine does not cause calcifications in the breast.
Most calcifications are not a sign of cancer. Other causes of calcifications on a mammogram include:
Large rounded calcifications (macrocalcifications) are common in women over age 50. They appear as small white dots on the mammogram. They are not thought to be related to cancer, and only rarely need more testing.
Microcalcifications are tiny calcium specks seen on a mammogram. Most of the time, they are not cancer, but may need to be checked more closely.
When microcalcifications are seen on a mammogram, the doctor (a radiologist) may ask for a magnified view so the calcifications can be seen more closely.
Calcifications that do not appear to be a problem are called "benign." No specific follow-up is needed.
Calcifications are slightly abnormal but do not look like a problem are called "probably benign." Usually, a 6-month mammogram is recommended.
Calcifications that are irregular in size or shape, or tightly clustered together, are called "suspicious calcifications." Your health care provider will recommend a stereotactic core biopsy. This is a needle biopsy that uses a type of mammogram machine to help find the calcifications.
Most patients who have suspicious calcifications do not have cancer.

MALVERN, PA -- Now available from Crane Payment Innovations is a new MEI bill validator designed for the Virtuo, a "smart" jukebox made by TouchTunes. The AE26Q2 makes it easy for operators to replace stock validators on OEM equipment with MEI technology.
The AE26Q2 model combines MEI's AE2600 validator, which accepts $1 to $20 notes, with a thinner bezel entry. Its custom form and down stacker configuration make it an easy fit into Virtuo jukeboxes without any modification necessary to either hardware component. Installation of the new validator can be done in less than five minutes, according to MEI.
"The rising popularity of the Virtuo and the need for reliable play enabled through payment identified the opportunity for a compatible MEI solution in the market," said Chris Felix, MEI's national amusement OEM sales director.
Before the AE26Q2, installing MEI validators on Virtuo boxes required the purchase of a kit and more than 30 minutes to accomplish, according to Felix. Now, upgrade time is minimal and requires the removal of only four screws.
MEI is offering a $25 rebate on every AE26Q2 order placed by May 15.
