Attention: Do not be surprised or put off by literary or imaginary characters that may appear in these pages. Regards.
Dear Sir Noted Stop Will be on the lookout Stop Hope to see you soon Stop Affectionately yours Gertrude Stop
A "friend" is delivering this. Received your latest. Am concerned for your safety in Lisbon. Do not delay there and make plans for Paris with haste.
Send money.
Yours always,
Dear Charles,
Timothy delivered your note. So glad you're not lying in a ditch and have repented of your wild ways. Don't worry about me, am having gorgeous time with the pygmies and haven't any time for Paris, but enclosed find a check. It should be enough for passage home.
Ever your own,
GertrudeP.S. Do give Daisy my love and buy her an ice cream when you think of it.
Dearest Gertrude,
I can not thank you enough for your assistance. It arrived just in time for me to purchase a ticket on a steamer leaving Tangiers for Majorca. As you may have heard, I had a bit of difficulty with the roulette there, the cheats! I am at the Hotel Dalt Murada. It is a fine place, but perhaps beyond my means because I was taken in by a Sicilian canasta sharpie on the passage. I am the victim of my own innocence, others always taking advantage. Perhaps dear, you could provide some assistance? Oh, come to think of it, doesn't your good friend Betsy vacation here this time of year? Surely she would not be inconvenienced by me.
I can not believe that you are forsaking Paris for your blessed pygmies. How will I ever understand you? Still, your heart for science and exploration is charming. All in all, I am relieved you are not in Lisbon!
Surely I will give your love to Daisy when I ever make it home.
Yours always,
Charles, my dear,
No, no no! Homeward you must go. You mustn't leave poor Daisy waiting, and wearing her sad beanie, and longing for you. It's simply not respectable, and mother will be worried sick besides. I've rung Betsy and she'd love to have you but do stay away from her poodle this time, the poor thing hasn't recovered yet, you naughty boy. I've wired passage home to Betsy and you must promise me you'll leave just as soon as you can bear the high seas again.
Your very own,
GertudeP.S. I Quite agree about the Sicilians, but after that fiasco in Monaco, I thought you would know better!
My one and only Gertrude,
How could I deny you anything? But of course I will return home to sweet Daisy at the earliest opportunity. Do not think me heartless. You, mother and Daisy are constantly in my thoughts.
Thank you so much dear for the arrangements with Betsy. I assure you, that I had nothing to do with her poodle. It was solely Jeremy's doing. I will leave here shortly, please contact me at Betsy's. Hopefully the barmaid will not figure out where I have gone. I promise, no problems with the militia this time. Oh, do you have any friends at the Consulate?
My fondest,
P.S. Since Monaco I have been a martyr to my own innocence. What is your poor Charles to do?
Charles! Not another barmaid! I am greatly distressed and know not what to do with myself. Also I am laughing so hard I can hardly speak. Love, Gertrude

Pause near any City Hall or Courthouse, listen carefully, and you will hear the moaning and groaning. It comes from mayors, supervisors, and other public officials trying to balance next year's budgets.
"Revenues for virtually every government entity in the country are stagnant or declining thanks to the recession," asserted the Clarion-Ledger, "while the costs of health care, fuel and asphalt are going up." Well, that's a hefty claim, but it certainly seems true for Mississippi.
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reported "asphalt cost about $100 per ton last year; fifteen years ago it was about $33 per ton," attributing the information to Tony Garrett, senior executive director of the Mississippi Asphalt Paving Association.
The Picayune Item reported "property values have fallen and a mill applied to the value of a home will generate less money."
The Hattiesburg American quoted Petal Mayor Hal Marx saying, "This year our insurance rates and state retirement (PERS) went up."
The consequences of all this have been various combinations of budget cuts, tax increases, and spending down reserves.
Madison County supervisors voted to raise taxes after cutting budgets "3 percent to 5 percent for the last several years," according to Supervisor Paul Griffin as reported by the Clarion-Ledger. Rankin County supervisors voted to raise tax rates for the first time in 16 years.
Mayor George Schloegel proposed laying off 14 city workers and shuttering a fire station to balance Gulfport's budget, but the City Council balked and chose to tap the city's reserves. Others communities and counties have laid off workers and cut most non-personnel line items to the bone.
Citizens and some officials have begun to complain about declining services and/or increased taxes.
For example, the Picayune Item quoted Donna Knezevich telling supervisors, "Since 2004 Pearl River County has increased its tax revenue by 64 percent;" and Rance Bedwell saying, "I don't want taxes raised."
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reported Tupelo council President Fred Pitts saying, "Our city streets are getting worse and worse."
The Clarion-Ledger reported Madison resident Mary McLaurin saying, "I'm really upset that it comes down to raising employee pay by 3 percent and terminating employees and then raising taxes on the elderly."
Folks, the likelihood is that the moaning and groaning will get worse, given the outlook for the economy.
The likelihood is that city and county officials will continue to do what they've always done in response – cut, tax, moan and groan.
And, the greatest likelihood is that those inside government will vigilantly avoid looking for new cost-cutting ways to do business… consolidating city and county administrative and/or law enforcement functions; forming multi-jurisdiction units for street and road repair, water and sewer services, and/or maintenance services; or actually merging cities and counties into single entities.

Dick Zigun
Born in 1953 and raised in Bridgeport, Connecticut, the hometown of P.T. Barnum, Dick Zigun was aware of American show-business culture from an early age. This awareness continued during his years at the Yale School of Drama, from which he received an MFA, but it wasn't until 1979 that he began to earn the title of "Mayor of Coney Island."
On arriving in New York that year, Zigun was unable to find an affordable apartment in Manhattan, so he moved out to Coney Island, where the rents were cheaper. Soon afterward, one of his plays was produced in Santa Monica, California, in conjunction with a play about Kid Twist, the legendary underworld figure killed at Coney Island in 1908. As Zigun tells it, he was standing on the amusement pier there when he had his epiphany: rather than putting on plays in the rarefied atmosphere of Soho lofts, he could merge his dramatic interests with the tradition of the neighborhood in which he lived.
The organization that resulted, Coney Island USA, put on its first event, "Tricks and Treats at the Wax Musee," on Halloween 1981 at a Coney Island venue no longer in existence. The show received notice in several periodicals, including the Yale Drama Review, and spurred Zigun and some friends to inaugurate the Mermaid Parade. Now celebrating its 18th year, the Mermaid Parade draws participants, both in and out of costume, both professional and amateur, to the Reigelmann boardwalk each June in an effort to prove that mermaids can indeed walk, despite all evidence to the contrary.
In 1985 Coney Island USA opened Sideshows by the Seashore, and Zigun has been producing it ever since. Billed as the only "ten-in-one" sideshow still in existence in North America (the term refers the number of acts that can be seen for a single price), this venue has presented such curiosities as the late Michael Wilson, known as the Illustrated Man for his profusion of tattoos, and Otis Jordan, a quadriplegic who rolled his own cigarettes using "only the mouth and the lips." The newest addition to the roster is Eke the Geek, who, as Zigun describes it, "tattooed his face with space."
Zigun, who also acts as a spokesman for Astroland, the park that runs the Cyclone roller coaster, remains optimistic about the future of his chosen home ground. "I had almost given up on the idea of Coney Island growing and building," he says. "But suddenly it's happening. There's been an amazing turnaround." In part, this turnaround is reflected in recent plans to build a sports stadium on the site where Steeplechase Park once stood.
No doubt the future of Coney Island will not repeat its past, and Zigun himself makes no pretensions to this effect. When he finds himself on panels with old timers who remember the sights and smells of the halcyon days, he says, he invariably gets "blown off the stage." Yet Coney Island still holds a unique place in contemporary America. If it does not overwhelm, it continues to offer its unique charm and its unpolished enthusiasm for everything strange. That it does so at all is largely due to the revivalist efforts of Dick Zigun.

How ironic that the Independent's sister paper, The Evening Standard, should also print a derogatory, ill-researched and pretty one-sided article by a journalist by the name of Mr Shakespeare on the very same Friday last week. In the said article, he effectively claimed most cyclists are in fact the devil incarnate, had nothing better to do than attempt to run down any pedestrians at will and clearly believe red lights mean go like bulls in china shops ! No mention was made of pedestrians who step into the road without looking or ones incapable of recognising the difference between a green man (flashing or not) and a red man. Don't get me wrong ... some of my best friends are pedestrians, but the crux of the whole situation should be that cyclists, pedestrians, car drivers and any other road users become more TOLERANT of each other. It is not a war zone. As a regular cycle commuter in London (formerly a foot commuter), I see my fair share of incidents, but Mr Shakespeare's attempts to label all cyclists as holier-than-thou is pathetic and divisive. Perhaps he should be confined to the James Martin Asylum and subjected to perpetual tongue lashing from the Dark Lord, AKA Bradley Wiggins !!!
Finally - Peace, Love and Understanding
Two stories featured prominently in British national newspapers in recent days have starkly illustrated the polarisation of public feeling when it comes to cyclists. Last Friday, The Independent launched a front-page appeal to end the slaughter of cyclists on the nation's roads, complete with pictures of some of the victims. The Daily Mail, meanwhile, provided a first-person account of a pedestrian run over by a cyclist, who claims that "cyclists seem to be able to get away with almost anything."
If the Independent's campaign, called Save Our Cyclists, has a familiar ring, that's perhaps because sister paper, the London Evening Standard, launched a similar campaign focused on the capital last year – both newspapers are owned by the Russian tycoon, Evgeny Lebedev.
The campaign, aimed at securing greater protection for cyclists from lorries and buses, which The Independent says account for 230 bike riders being killed or seriously injured on Britain's roads each month, has received the support of high profile cyclists such as the broadcaster Jon Snow, who is also the president of the national cyclists' organisation CTC, and Mayor of London, Boris Johnson.
Mr Snow commented: "I'm delighted to see the campaign and support anything that highlights the issue in the cycling world. HGVs and cyclists do not mix well, and training won't help. We need cycle ways with a curb that separates the bicycle from traffic."
Mr Johnson added: "No form of transport is 100 per cent safe but cycling is safer than most and we are doing all we can in London to make it even safer and ever more enjoyable."
However, a representative of the Road Haulage Association appeared to pin the blame for at least some incidents on cyclists themselves. Peter Cullum, head of international affairs at the trade association, said: "An assumption is made that cyclists are always the innocent party and unfortunately it's not true. Those cyclists' deaths are avoidable, but avoidable by who?
"We've been talking to cycling organisations for years on this issue and we ensure our drivers receive training. I'm not sure what has been done by the cyclists. With the surge of cycling in the last few years a lot of people have been going out cycling without knowing the dangers. If you can't see the lorry driver, he can't see you."
Meanwhile, in the Daily Mail, Hamish McGregor related how he was run over by a cyclist thought to be travelling at between 20 and 30mph while crossing a tramway in Manchester in January. The incident left him with cuts, abrasions and serious bruising on several parts of his body, but thankfully no broken bones.
While by his own admission, Mr McGregor stepped into the bike rider's path without having seen him, the fact is that the cyclist should not have been on the tramway – bicycles, like all other vehicles other than trams are banned.
Mr McGregor claims that he is not asking for a "punitive crackdown on cyclists," but he does suggest that cyclists are above the law, pointing out that they "can't be charged with causing death by careless or dangerous driving."
He also backs the private member's bill introduced by the Conservative MP Andrea Leadsom to introduce an offence of causing death by dangerous cycling, which would replace the 150-year-old offence of causing injury through "wanton or furious driving or racing," under which cases involving cyclists injuring pedestrians tend to be prosecuted.
"It is hardly surprising," he maintains, "that this law has been used only a handful times in the past decade," and he is correct, although perhaps not in the way he intended; according to Department for Transport statistics, just three pedestrians have been killed after being hit by cyclists since 2001.
CTC says that in recent years, two cyclists have gone to jail after hitting and killing pedestrians; far from being "above the law", that suggests that when it comes to cases involving the death of another person, cyclists are treated much more harshly by the courts than most drivers convicted of causing death by careless or dangerous driving.
Perhaps the Daily Mail would be better off focusing its efforts in that direction?
Born in Scotland, Simon moved to London aged seven and now lives in the Oxfordshire Cotswolds with his miniature schnauzer, Elodie. He fell in love with cycling one Saturday morning in 1994 while living in Italy when Milan-San Remo went past his front door. A daily cycle commuter in London back before riding to work started to boom, he's been news editor at road.cc since 2009. Handily for work, he speaks French and Italian. He doesn't get to ride his Colnago as often as he'd like, and freely admits he's much more adept at cooking than fettling with bikes.

How ironic that the Independent's sister paper, The Evening Standard, should also print a derogatory, ill-researched and pretty one-sided article by a journalist by the name of Mr Shakespeare on the very same Friday last week.
Which bit of the Indie's 'free from propriatorial influence' stance do you not get? Becuase the two titles have the same owner doesn't make them 'sister' papers.
I find myself somewhat pleased that a lot of the response ot the indie's campaign is highlighting the anti-social (and illegal) riding habits of a small minority of cyclists (in London). Perhaps only when these numpties cease their RLJ'ing, not having lights at night, and agressive pavement riding, and and all of which are so prevalent on the streets of London, perhpas then the majority of shared space fellow roads users soften their attitudes to the rest of us who aim to ride within the law.
I read Hamish McGregor's article and it did have some sane paragraphs in there towards the end but I don't think the Daily Bile's readership really got the subtleties, at least judging by the comments. I'm not doubting he had an accident but the cyclist who hit him must have had a miraculous escape not have incurred any injury himself travelling at over 20mph.
It does seem that cyclists are new Al Qaeda, the bile has obviously got a bit bored with bashing immigrants, single mothers and islamic extremist and needs a new hate figure. It's a shame that they can't campaign positively for a change in attitudes on all sides rather than just fan the flames.
The fact that the Daily Mail editorial rants against cyclists should harldy be a surprise. A significant percentage of cyclists are not from the Daily Mail's target market. The daily mail supported Hitler remember, which gives you an understanding of where the paper comes from with regard to reason and truth.
@Old Ridgeback - have you ever heard of Godwin's Law? (Look it up on Wiki) Time to move on I think.
What is true though is that all major media depend heavily on advertising to break even, and a huge proportion of that advertising comes from the motor trade in one form or another. The AA with its custard pie hats, car manufacturers, parts suppliers and manufacturers, rental companies, oil companies, you name it. They have a powerful lobby, the SMMT. Newspapers which depend on them for ad revenue have to toe the line, even if some do so more enthusiastically than others.
The "motorist" is as much a myth as the "war on". All motorists are pedestrians at some time, and then they act like one. The Bile simply misrepresents their views.
The Daily Mail risk upsetting a proportion of their readership. Many of the comments on that story received procycling comment. Whilst I agree with the writer that the cyclist shouldn't have been there I have doubts as to how truthful he's being for two reasons.
One is that had the cyclist been travelling at those speeds they'd have been just as likely to be as injured as he.
Secondly he actually lists a couple of the laws that have been used effectively against errant cyclists.
Even in the Independent there has been polarised debate. Much of it from myopic drivers who seem to blame us and want us out of the way (have a look at the letters pages).
Brad Mc Gee falls off his bike alongside the team car . Leontin Van moorsell falls off the bike in front of the Grandstand in the Athens Olympic Women's road race .
Each cannot say why this happened but you see joe public riding "no hands and talking on the mobile" regularly usually in normal clothes and then the "Holier than thou " media attack regular riders trying to ride sensibly and safely and describe them as "lycra louts" etc !
What part of their vision is impaired ? Do they really rely on feedback or re they in the land of Nod dreaming up hate inspiring items to play to the "Hate cyclists faction"?
While by his own admission, Mr McGregor stepped into the bike rider's path without having seen him, the fact is that the cyclist should not have been on the tramway -
While the cyclist shouldn't have been there, Mr McGregor by his own admission didn't look, as many pedestrians don't. He's a very lucky man it wasn't a tram that hit him.

Pomp & Circumstance
I took the boys to the campus of UNC in Chapel Hill Saturday afternoon for they could see the football players make their pre-game walk from the Old Well to Kenan Stadium.
I have to say it was pretty cool.
The crowd was large and electric, clearly juiced about new head coach Butch Davis and the prospect of finally having a ranked football team.
Another reason the crowd was jittery was because of the announcement that Appalachian State beat Michigan.
like a fart in church,
UNC football

BettyConfidential: What's your first fashion memory?
Julio Santiago: I would have to say watching my mother getting dressed or having her clothes made. She had an effortless sense of elegance that is imprinted in my memory.
BettyConfidential: When did you decide that you wanted to be a designer? Was their an event or a person that spurred that interest?
JS: I don't think I officially decided to be a designer as a life goal. I started working for my sister-in-law Kela whom introduced me to knitwear; she designed mohair sweaters. Mohair needs to be finished by a simple wash and I did that on my last year of high school. I was intrigued by the construction techniques and how geometry is a big part of it. I immediately knew I wanted to learn how to knit. My grandma Josefa loved to knit and a crochet project was always around. I signed up for a knitting class and borrowed a loom from my cousin Amalia to practice after class.
BettyConfidential: Your mother Elsa and your grandmother Josefa encouraged you to learn knitting—what was it that intrigued you about it?
JS: Geometry without a doubt. I loved changing colors and making patterns of different shapes.
Click here to start shopping BettyConfidential Shop's exclusive flash sale!
BettyConfidential: In your bio you state that you worked on a loom trying to learn how string can be turned into fabric. What was your first experience like? Do you still work on a loom?
JS: My first experience on the loom was in a class. It was funny, the classroom faced the sidewalk and I was the only male, so they sat me in the back of the room where I couldn't be seen from outside. The instructor even asked me if my parents knew that I had signed up for a knitting class. Different times.
I remember my first project was to make a pocket and I loved it! And yes, I have a loom in my studio and that is how my collections get conceived, I knit every prototype piece of each collection before it goes to production.
BettyConfidential: Do you still knit? If so, what are you working on?
JS: Of course. I am working on my new fall collection for 2013. I was inspired by the Grand Canyon during a visit in the summer; I was taken by its layers, curves and the transition of textures and colors.
BettyConfidential: What was the most important thing you learned when you were studying design?
JS: My formal education is not in design. I am a self-taught designer and I strongly believe in freedom of self expression and following your instincts. I would say it is vital to listen to opinions (as I am yet to meet someone without one), but to stay focused on your vision and true to who you are as a designer.
What's the design process is like, which celeb he'd like to dress and more up next

The give and take of young pitching
Last night, the White Sox stopped shopping John Danks and locked him into a five-year contract. Four days before that, the Reds gave up a truck load of young talent to acquire Mat Latos. One day before that, the Rays signed Matt Moore to an eight-year deal just three regular-season games into his big league career. A week before that, the Diamondbacks gave up a successful first-round draft pick in a trade for Trevor Cahill.
If nothing else, it seems this winter has shown the value of young starters. It's shown that teams are willing to give them big contracts to stick around, and it's shown that teams are willing to give up massive amounts of talent to acquire them. Two years ago, the Giants won the World Series on the strength of young, home grown pitching, and it seems the baseball world was paying attention.
So how would you have the Yankees approach this market?
Brian Cashman believes that pitching is the "key to the kingdom," but he's seen big money wasted on long-term deals with aging starters. He's also seen big money wasted on unproven international talent. And although the Yankees have the prospects to trade for an elite young pitcher, Cashman seems worried about losing one or two of his own elite young pitchers in the process.
It's an awkward balance between proven and unproven, between potential and uncertainty. In Manny Banuelos, the Yankees might have their own Gio Gonzalez. In Dellin Betances, they might have their own Mat Latos.
They might also have another Brien Taylor and another Andrew Brackman.
So if you were Cashman, which path would you prefer? Would you shoot for the stars and try to develop your own, or would you give up future potential for immediate, more proven gains?
Just a quick reminder, I'm hosting a chat today at noon. Stop by if you can.

Waterford — The three teachers who were notified earlier this year that they would not have jobs in the 2014-15 school year will be able to keep their positions.
Assistant Superintendent Craig Powers said Monday the district was able to place some of its more experienced staff in positions as literary and math coaches, opening up space to keep the three teachers, who the district was considering letting go.
The teachers who received reduction in force notices — second-grade teacher Kathleen Ward and third-grade teacher Adrienne Servideo at Oswegatchie Elementary School, and Michele Hynes, a kindergarten teacher at Quaker Hill Elementary — were slated to be eliminated due to decreased enrollment, Superintendent Jerome Belair said.
State law requires school districts to notify the staff by May 1 if their contracts may not be renewed.

Written by Staff Reports
A prestigious advertising firm - expressing a willingness to manage the UCC's identity campaign at cost - has been selected by the UCC's Proclamation, Identity and Communication Ministry (PIC) to lead the denomination in its effort to increase name recognition in U.S. households.
Building on the success of the UCC's initial "God is still speaking," campaign, which to date has been coordinated in-house, Gotham Inc., a New York-based firm with $783 million in 2002 billings, will help market the church's strengths and vision, says the Rev. Robert Chase, PIC's team leader.
The firm's generous at-cost offer stems from a belief among company executives that the UCC has a unique and important message to share with the world, he says.
Church leaders were surprised and elated, says Ron Buford, the UCC's public relations and marketing manager, when Gotham's entire leadership team assembled on June 9 to pitch their "at cost" offer to the denomination. Church leaders initially met with Gotham, as well as two other major ad firms, on March 28. But after the company had time to research the UCC's history and its contemporary commitments, Gotham approached the UCC with its offer.
Chase says the at-cost arrangement was predicated by three significant factors. First, he says, the UCC has demonstrated excellence and professionalism in its current "God is still speaking," campaign. Second, Gotham is a successful company with a commitment to "giving something back, and the UCC is going to be the beneficiary of that generosity." And third, he says, "They were moved, impressed, struck by our emphasis on radical welcome and justice."
Gotham specializes in building brand loyalty, something desperately needed, Buford says, if the UCC is to be distinguishable in the U.S. religious landscape.
Gotham's high-profile clients include Bank of America, L'Oreal, Liz Claiborne, Johnson and Johnson, Bristol- Myers Squibb, Pfizer Pharmaceuticals, AT&T Wireless and "Newman's Own" salad dressings and pasta sauces.
The firm's not-for-profit clients include the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program and the Partnership for a Drug-Free America.
Gotham's executives said that the time is right for the UCC "because the church's message speaks to an audience of ready prospects."
In a report given to church leaders, Gotham summed up the UCC as having a "personality" that is "reflective of Christ's—open, embracing, nurturing, and eternally relevant."
"We were astounded when they were right on target about who we want to be," Chase says.
Discussions about the ramped-up "God is still speaking" campaign are still taking place, including decisions about the extent, scope and timing of the national advertising campaign. Financing arrangements still must be finalized for the purchase of print ads and television/radio commercials.

I was pretty happy with the way spine was going last night, we were defenatly getting some where with it. However, im not looking forward to the amount of bloods i will be tanking late 2nd plate through to the end of the encounter. I guess it something i will have to work on and i should be good at it being a warrior.

I did get upset that we killed Warmaster last night again without you. I just knew the minute we did that you would again feel that you were the unlucky charm and that also the teasing would start again. It annoys me to no end that people think that teasing someone repeatedly is funny, its not! When the same person/people tease about the same thing over and over again you start to doubt your ability, which is cruel and unfair. The people that do the teasing don't realize the harm and impact that their "jokes" do. I wish it would stop because I do value you as a fellow raider and frosties sister :)

Modified Ferraris vs Custom Lamborghinis: 2013 Tokyo Auto Salon
For decades, the Tokyo Auto Salon was known as the premier auto show for customized Japanese vehicles; but over recent years, custom European exotics have found a new home in Japan. Now, when you have a single Ferrari F40 in your booth at any auto show, you're definitely getting some attention. Pack two in your booth, and you won't even need any 'booth babes' to gather up a crowd. Have three, and well, your booth is the best of the show. SEE ALSO: 2013 Tokyo Auto Salon Coverage That is unless Japanese tuner Liberty Walk is situated right next to you. Roberuta, one of Japan's finest manufacturers of premium-grade suspension components, lined up a trio of Ferrari F40s to show off at this year's Auto Salon. But Liberty Walk unleashed a collection of the finest customized Lamborghinis in the world a mere 10-feet away. Of course for show goers, this was a huge treat. Seeing the best of Italy's exotics side-by-side is a rare sight – one that fits in perfectly at the Tokyo Auto Salon.

Upcoming post: S'mores Cupcakes |
So, my regularly scheduled posting has been postponed thanks to my bitch of a gallbladder who decided it was time to be purged from my body ASAP.
Upcoming post: Homemade Bagels |
About 2am Monday I was in unbearable pain and brought to the emergency room. At 10am I was finally seen, and after much blood work and tests and ultrasounds it was concluded my gallbladder was quite the unhappy camper--full of stones and very inflamed. At midnight Tuesday they removed my gallbladder. For the full story, click here to go to my other blog.
I am doing okay now--in a lot of post-surgery pain but I have my laptop so I'm trucking on through. I have like five posts in the queue for you but they'll have to wait for now. My next post was going to be another In Memory of my Dad post, since his 52nd birthday would have been on the 11th. But, as you can see, I was mighty distracted over the past few days... heh.

Thread: OT Terps vs Duke
Re: OT Terps vs Duke
K was pissed after the game and took a swipe at MD going to the Big 10,
Said it's been a great rivalry with the great games but MD obviously doesn't feel they're
important or they wouldn't be going to the Big 10.
Guess he missed the wild celebration after the game. Place went nuts. That's how important it was.
It's all about money K and he'd jump at the chance but Duke is in the middle of no where so nobody
else wants them as great as they are.
Screw that little snot.

Fuck Coach Ratface.
Great win by the Terps, as maddeningly inconsistent as they are this year, they have a lot of potential if they can just get into the dance. Very young team for sure, they will only get better. They are going to need to probably finish 9-7 and get a tourney win, or 10-6. Do that and I think they are in, but it's gonna be tight.

Re: OT Terps vs Duke
Nice to see the Terps stick it to the Evil Empire one last time.
As for the B1G move... meh. If you're asking me do I give a shit about watching the Terps play Minnesota and Illinois and whoever the fuck-all else is in that conference, I say no. I've never been to Minnesota and God willing, I never will. Could care less. Watching the Terps play UNC and Duke and GT and Clemson etc was what it was about for me. The history, the rivalries. This smash and grab thing might be good marketing and sell more jerseys to the kiddos, but for us old farts who grew up on Buck Williams and Albert King etc. it's like taking the Orioles and putting them in the Japanese league. Am I really going to get excited about a 3 game sweep of the Kinetsu Buffaloes, or seeing Nick Markakis take Chin Chen Wong deep? Hell no. Likewise, if the Terps beat ... I don't know, somebody, is it going to matter? Not really.
In about 4-5 years there will be a whole new generation of students / alumni / fans who won't remember any different and they'll think it's awesome, so there you go. There's your future. Those of us who come from the past are on the outside looking in. Or more accurately, just doing something else besides watching Terp hoops.

Re: OT Terps vs Duke
Even though there were great memories of games in the ACC, there were too many games where the Terps, as well as other ACC teams outside of NC were royally screwed by referees open bias in favor of in state teams. That plus the open arrogance of some of the so called great coaches of the ACC like Dean Smith, Coach Ferret-Face K, and, especially Jimmy V (as crooked and corrupt a coach that has ever lived) make me laugh rather than shed a tear!
Maybe the Terps will run into something similar in the Big Ten, who knows! However, they will be making more money than by staying in the ACC and more financial resources help improve one's chances.
The ACC is not the ACC people have memories of.
Our basketball rival was going to be freaking PITT.
The only rivalries I care/cared about were Duke, UNC, and UVA, and we weren't even guaranteed to play those guys at home every year.
The ACC doesn't give a shit about Maryland and our " rivalries", why should I give a shit about the ACC?
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HDAlthough Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.
Re: OT Terps vs Duke
I wish Maryland was able to stay in the ACC and I'll definitely miss playing Duke, UNC, UVA and not being able to play future opponents like Cuse, Pitt, and ND. I'm not a fan of chasing money to go to a conference where MD has zero shared history with anyone except PSU from decades ago. The ACC has always been Carolina-centric, and the ACC does everything to cater to them (like hold the ACC Tournament pretty much every single year in the state of North Carolina.) John Swofford is an idiot, he should have had a viable TV network years ago, while the B1G was building their own. What's done is done, but I didn't like the sneaky way MD's administration went about leaving, they basically gave the Board of Regents only a few days to mull everything over before voting. The President and AD have zero ties to Maryland or the ACC, so it was much easier for them to like the move. They also bungled the football program by hiring Edsall (6 wins in 2 seasons.) Things are looking promising for football now with better recruiting, but they've lost a ton of money from poor attendance and a drop in season tickets. The basketball program pretty much funds the entire athletics department, so I can see why the promise of more money is enticing. The entire athletic department had way too many sports programs to fund anyways, they should have been cut years ago. Next year's final ACC basketball schedule will be pretty awesome, hopefully we can go out with a bang.

Hey guys, I'd like to introduce to you all with a fun lesson on a popular villain from 'Dragon Ball Z'. Personally, DBZ is my all time favorite anime until GT came out. GT was extremely horrid with very bad plotting. Anyways, in this tutorial you'll get the tips and tricks on "how to draw Android 17", step by step. It's been two years and half since I've seen the episodes where Android 18,17, and 16 partied together to destroy the world. Their creator, Dr. Gero, also turned himself into an android so he can rule the world with his creations. Little did his robots know that another creation was made by their creator, Dr. Gero, to absorb the androids so it can become the ultimate being and dominate the world. You all know his name by 'Cell'. I've never made it through the entire Cell Saga but I definitely need to watch it as a midnight treat! The drawing was highly influenced from a series of images I saw on the DBZ wikia fan-site. I decided to render an art piece that brought out the true power of Android 17. He very much reminds me of Gaara from Naruto meshed with Orochimaru. His black hair bleeds through his awesome characteristic, which is evil, merciless, and dominant. He and his companions Android 18 and 16 slice through their opponents with ease. This part of the saga was the most dragging when I first seen it. I become totally hooked and kept ogling until I've reached the end and the beginning of the Cell Saga. Anyways, I have to scuttle onwards to my other lessons. There's one more DBZ character of the day I'd like to introduce to you folks. Thanks for viewing and good luck with this tut on "how to draw Android 17"!

Individual Sentiments Wool/Cotton Pants sz. 2
Will Ship To: Anywhere
Purchased from yahoo japan, worn maybe 3 times. Waist was smaller than anticipated so I had the buttons moved a little further along the placket. Moving the buttons back would be an easy fix. Also the lining has come loose in one place in the right leg. Also an easy fix. Price reflects these flaws. Otherwise great condition.
46% wool/6% cashmere/7% nylon/41% cotton heavy jersey. Gray-purple-aubergine color. Warm and very comfortable. Lined through the knees with cotton. Two back pockets, no front. Raw hems with virtually no fraying––the extremely long inseams means you can hem to the desired length, or leave it raw with lots of stax. Construction is top notch. Great winter pants.
I'll post better pics tomorrow. Will post measurements as soon as I find my tape measure. Should fit a 31-32.

Ashley Tisdale goes back and forth between being a brunette and a blonde, but presently she is rocking long beige blonde hair, most likely with the help of hair extensions. Ashley's sandy blonde hair color is flattering to her skin tone and in this photo, she has pulled off "the red lip" by choosing the perfect shade for her hair, skin and eye color.
Many times, when celebs do the red lip, they go over the top and pair it with brassy blonde or platinum blonde hair color and dramatic black liquid eyeliner for a full-on retro look. Here, Ashley is doing the red lip in a very modern way. She has chosen a true red shade that matches her warm beige hair, brown eyes and medium fair skin tone. Her eye makeup is clean and understated, with only a simple black-brown eyeliner on the top lash line and the bottom outer corner. There is a slight contouring under her cheekbones that adds just a bit of dimension—if you don't have strong cheekbones, this technique will help to define your face structure.
Finally, let's not forget about the hair. This pretty relaxed half up half down hairstyle looks great paired with her modern makeup and diamond stud earrings. To copy this hairstyle, use large hot hair rollers to add loose waves to the ends of the hair, and pin the hair up in the back, leaving loose layers around the face.

Live in a Museum for a Month and Earn $10,000
Month at the Museum 2. Photo courtsey of MSIChicago.com.
By Leah Westfall
June 28, 2011
This is the true story, of one student, picked to live in a museum and have their life blogged about. Ok, so it's not MTV's Real World but it is a real opportunity that could land you a once in a lifetime opportunity and $10K in cash.
Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry (MSI) is offering one student the chance to live in the museum 24/7 from October 19 to November 17 in what they're calling Month at the Museum 2. The individual who is picked to live and breathe science for 30 days will also be asked to write about, blog about and broadcast their experience via a blog, Twitter and online video.
This is the second time a student has lived at the 14-acre museum. Last year Kate McGroarty lived at the MSI and spent her days and nights exploring the museum (even after hours of course), taking part in science demonstrations, meeting and talking with guests and sharing her experience with followers online. Before Kate moved out of the museum last November, the public asked the museum to do it again and they agreed, this time adding a few new elements to the adventure.
The individual picked will be asked to have very limited contact with the outside world – meaning trading in their cell phone, email, texting and personal Facebook all in the name of science! MSI acknowledges that a whole month in the museum can be quite the commitment. To reward you for all your 'efforts' the museum will be sending the lucky participant home with a few parting gifts, including $10,000 and a package of tech gadgets (think a notebook computer and a digital camera).
Want your chance to soak up all of what MSI has to offer? They're looking for someone who is curious, adventurous and outgoing with a strong interest in learning about science. You'll also need to be able to write for the blog, be able to hold an engaging conversation and be computer savvy enough to blog, tweet and take a digital pic. So, "How would you 2 it?"
To apply applicants are asked to send in a DVD of themselves, a 500-word essay and complete the application form. For more information visit MSIChicago.org. All entries are due by 5:00 on July 22.
Need money to pay for college?
Every semester, Fastweb helps thousands of students pay for school by matching them to scholarships, grants and awards for which they actually qualify. Sign up today to get started. You'll find scholarships like the Course Hero's $5,000 Scholarship, and easy to enter scholarships like Niche $2,000 No Essay Scholarship.

Ron Paul Republicans Win House Races
Republican candidates strongly tied to the conservative-libertarian ideology of former presidential candidate Ron Paul won hotly-contested congressional races on Tuesday, pointing at a possible direction the party can go after losing to President Obama.
Thomas Massie won the race to replace retiring Kentucky Republican Rep. Geoff Davis, beating Democrat Bill Adkins by 20 percentage points. Massie, an ally of Paul's son, Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul, raised nearly 10 times as much money as Adkins, according to the Lexington-Herald Leader.
Michigan Republican Rep. Justin Amash, who was already vying to be the House's next "Dr. No" in his first term, was re-elected with 58-percent of the vote. The 31-year-old Amash backed Congressman Paul for president and later refused to endorse Mitt Romney."There is no next Ron Paul. He is one of a kind," Amash told a Ron Paul rally before the Republican National Convention last August.
North Carolina Republican Rep. Walter Jones was another candidate who won Tuesday. Like Amash, he backed Congressman Paul and refused to endorse Mitt Romney. Congressman Jones once crusaded for "freedom fries" to protest France's opposition to the U.S. invasion of Iraq before becoming a fierce critic of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
In a neighboring Michigan district, Ron Paul Republican Kerry Bentivolio was elected to the House seat formerly held by GOP Rep. Thaddeus McCotter. McCotter, who had failed to gather enough valid signatures to appear on the ballot, resigned from the House amid a petition scandal. Bentivolio beat Democrat Syed Taj.
Bentivolio spent four decades in the U.S. Army, but was painted by opponents as an eccentric because he raised reindeer and played Santa Claus for local children. Despite the smears, he was elected to Congress by a 7-point margin.
Many other candidates endorsed by Ron and Rand Paul, as well as Paul-influenced organizations like Campaign for Liberty and Young Americans for Liberty, were on the ballot Tuesday, including Texas Sen.-elect Ted Cruz. But these three Republicans most self-consciously identified with the Pauls' calls for deep spending cuts, auditing the Federal Reserve, and a more restrained foreign policy.
They all raised money from Paul's vast national network of donors, which helped them remain competitive in their primaries and the general election.

Eurozone nations on Monday started setting up a massive bailout fund that could rescue any member of Europe's currency union from default, aiming to soothe market jitters that have sent the euro to a new four-month low against the dollar.
The "shock and awe" financial rescue package from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund will total euro750 billion ($1 trillion) — money that can be lent to any indebted eurozone nation risking default, and intended to counter investor fears that Spain, Portugal or others could follow Greece in requiring a bailout to meet debt repayments.
The special purpose vehicle to borrow up to euro440 billion ($526 billion) will be ready this month, when countries formalize debt guarantees for some 90 percent of the package, said Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker, who led Monday's talks between eurozone finance ministers.
Another euro60 billion managed by the EU's executive commission "is available to cover urgent financial needs were it to arise" in the mean time, he said, while the International Monetary Fund will provide another euro250 billion.
Germany, which will provide the largest chunk of the EU fund, has pressed other eurozone countries to make big budget cuts to reduce the chances of them needing a bailout.
Markets "want to see not only actions but deeds" to shore up the currency, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble told reporters.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel vowed to "set an example" Monday by laying out plans to save euro80 billion through 2014 by reducing handouts to parents, cutting 15,000 government jobs and delaying projects such as construction of a replica of a Prussian palace in Berlin.
Juncker said eurozone finance ministers wanted Spain and Portugal to build on current "significant and courageous" spending cuts with further efforts "needed beyond 2011 together with further progress" on structural reforms, such as changes to pensions, welfare or labor systems.
EU Economy Commissioner Olli Rehn warned that they and others may need to prepare more budget reductions. He did not name which other countries should take action.
Eurozone nations said in a joint statement that they would draft bigger cuts and tax increases if they have to and would pursue "structural reforms" to slim state running costs — such as raising retirement ages to curb pension costs.
The International Monetary Fund called in a Monday report for eurozone countries facing market pressure to shun "delayed or half-hearted" budget cuts and draft more in case they can't make current targets to reduce budget deficits — the gap between government spending and income.
Juncker dismissed market volatility in recent days triggered by concern that Hungary _ which does not use the euro —could be the next European government to follow Greece by risking a default.
Hungarian officials last week warned that the country's deficit is growing and the country is close to default, two years after it received a bailout from the EU and the IMF.
Hungary's government has downplayed those comments, which nevertheless kept the euro trading near the four-year lows it hit Friday, when it went below $1.19 for the first time since March 2006.
There is intense pressure on all eurozone countries to make cuts.
However, trade unions warn that budget cuts could be going too far and could choke a fragile recovery that so far relies more on exports than domestic demand in European countries where people are still slow to spend and companies are reluctant to hire new workers.
Unemployment in the eurozone reached a 10-year high of 10.1 percent in April _ adding extra welfare costs to governments struggling with higher outgoings, lower tax revenue and debt that has soared since they paid out hundreds of billions to shore up the region's banking system.
Monday's talks between eurozone finance ministers will be followed by a meeting of most EU finance ministers and EU officials who will thrash out plans for long-term ways to avoid a new economic crisis, including a proposal for more EU oversight of national budgets.

Ladislav Smid's ego isn't the only thing that sustained bruising, following his impromtu dance with New York Rangers' dirt ball, Sean Avery last Sunday.
The Edmonton Oilers' D-man was placed on Injured Reserve by the team Tuesday afternoon, having been diagnosed with concussion symptoms.
That thud you just heard was likely the collective jaws dropping of Sean Avery "pest" apologists out there, searching for a place to hide – and so they should!
Smid, who was pummelled during the third period of Sunday's game, when Avery lunged at the lanky Edmonton blueliner, landing an unsuspecting blow to Smid's face, after allegedly declining Smid's request to fight.
The Oil have since called up Shawn Belle from the club's AHL Oklahoma City franchise to fill in for Smid.
Currently, Belle has tallied 15 points in the "A" for the Oil Barons.
J.F. Jacques has also been summoned from OK City, with both players expected to start tonight against the visiting Chicago Blackhawks. Jacques, an imposing forward, underwent back surgery last year.
Edmonton Head Coach Tom Renney will be crossing his fingers that Jacques' back is completely healed and the Quebec-born player is ready to bring an edge to an otherwise soft lineup.

vetalogica tranquil formula
By: donna on 11 April 2013I used this product on my over active Jacvk Russel cross he attacked my friends dog with whom he is normally the best of friends and my sister's teacup poodle who he is normally protective of. He also turned very cold towards me and would not come for cuddles or sit on my lap if I sopke to him he would show the whites of his eyes. I contacted the company and they were quite rude they said they had never heard of this happening before. The person I spoke to said she would talk to management and get back to me but that of course never happened. I know it was this product as when I stopped it within two or three days he was comepletly back to normal. I would never reccomend this product and I would rather Perry be hyperactive than the way he was on this procuct. Hello Donna - We are very sorry that you got poor customer service from Vetalogica. If you ever need any help dealing with these manufacturers just let us know as we can step in. We certainly do not want to be promoting companies that are not helpful. We have not had any other complaints about this product however it is great to hear feedback and we thankyou so much for posting yours. I hope others will post their dogs reactions to this product as well so others can get a full overview of the potential good and potential bad. Thanks for posting, Kind Regards Tracey - The Vet Shed

With Instructables you can share what you make with the world, and tap into an ever-growing community of creative experts.
With modularized mechanical structures, electronic modules, and Arduino programming, I made this aulminium alloy robot with Makeblock. (Now they are on Kickstarter, and many super-value kits are available.)
Tools needed: Screw drivers and a plier.
The tank is two motor drived. So I first need to make two motors possible to be installed onto the beam structure. First solder the wires and the ...
Two 90T wheels with shaft connector needs to be installed onto the motors. Two 90T wheels and twelve 66T wheels with flange bearing are needed.
Beams with different length Tracks screws plates wheels motors tools
Connect two beams with a plate to make a long beam.
90T wheels were installed on the end, while the 66T wheels installed in the middle.
Make sure all the wheels fastened.
The track is chainable, so that I can change the length per needed.
The basic tank is ready. if you add the drivring circuits and a Microcontroller, it is controllable.
I also prepared the robot arm and hand for the tank.
The arm was driven by a geared DC motor with timing belt. The servo can be used to control the robot hand.
I also prepared the Arduino compatible electronic modules. They can drive 3 DC motors, two servos, and be controllable remotely by infrared controller.
I haven't finished the progrmming and test. Once finished, more videos will be posted here. Just keep an eye on it. Have fun!

CEO of Wal-Mart Indian joint venture leaves
Published 3:10 pm, Wednesday, June 26, 2013
NEW YORK — The CEO of Wal-Mart Stores' Indian joint venture has left his post after six years at the helm.
The world's biggest retailer did not give any reason in a statement Wednesday as it disclosed that Raj Jain "is no longer with the company."
The company named Ramnik Narsey, senior vice president for Walmart International, as interim head for Bharti Walmart, a joint venture with India's Bharti Enterprises. His appointment is effective immediately.
Narsey joined Wal-Mart Stores Inc. last month. He previously served as chairman and CEO of Woolworths India.
Wal-Mart has been trying to expand in India, a giant market that is relatively untapped by foreign retailers. But the Bentonville, Ark., company has hit some bumps along the way.
In November it suspended several workers at Bharti Walmart as part of an internal corruption investigation. At the time Bharti Walmart said that it suspended "a few associates" and was "committed to conducting a complete and thorough investigation."
Wal-Mart operates 20 retail locations and 20 wholesale shops in India through its joint venture, according to its website.
"We remain optimistic about our business in India and look forward to our future in India under Ramnik's leadership." Scott Price, president and CEO of Walmart Asia, said in the statement.
