Sean? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:10am
Dickdong (UK):
Hatch - Thank you for the music ... May you go far. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:10am
Ron, I don't think he's up (or at his desk, whichever) yet at this hour. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:13am
Bad Ronald:
Oh yeah he's in Vegas... | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:13am
David(Copenhagen, Denmark):
Thanks for the NWW track. Is it correct that there is going to be an interview with SS in Brian Turners program today? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:14am
how new is this new look? it's sharp! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:16am
You mean the "look" of the playlist? I redesigned the page for election season about... two weeks ago? The color scheme is stolen hook, line, and sinker from the McCain campaign site. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:17am
And yes, Steven Stapleton will be on with Brian this afternoon. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:17am
have you seen the McCain's brain youtube vids? Woof.. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:20am
Morning Hatch and everyone.. Hatch, what software are you using to generate the playlist and the message board? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:27am
I have a problem with you substituting WFMU for Palin on your ticket, Hatch. FMU is much hotter than her. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:27am
Nice creepy set. My coworkers are looking at me strangely again. Not that that's unusual. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:31am
Goblin. Cool. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:33am
what? oh no. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:33am
Hatch say it ain't so! Why you gotta go? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:33am
Aw, Hatch! We'll miss you. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:34am
Bad Ronald:
You will be missed... | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:34am
do you think that most of the country will vote in a panic for McKKKain - because of old dirty party tricks such as gay marriage, abortion, race and gun rights? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:35am
JCityJensen + DavidLeeRoth:
Happy New Year Hatch! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:35am
Hatch...please don't cal this a "rescue"...it needs to stay called a "bailout". A rescue implies that someone will be saved. most likely a victim....In this case the only ones who are to be saved are Wall-Street bakers, who will be bailed out faster than fraternity party boys on a Sunday morning. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:35am
The home stretch of the election season without Hatch? Oh man, I've looked at the new sked several times, and it just didn't sink in. Denial, I guess. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:36am
bakers?...should be bankers | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:36am
Bad Ronald:
I've been dying to hear "Psycho" by Jack Kittel... | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:37am
Link me to some scary images for the playlist, buddies. We're gonna get back into Halloween mode later on, but the playlist today should be all scary, all the time. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:38am
Yeah, could you do a special fill-in on election day morning? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:39am
JCityJensen + DavidLeeRoth:
that would be awesome - Hatch Election Marathon! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:39am
GP, I'm against the bailout in its present form (or any form that's likely to pass), but I wish people would get off this kick that only Wall St fatcats are suffering. As has been pointed out several times on this board, the fatcats have wide safety nets, while the real suffering will be among those whose futures are tied to pension funds, non-profit endowments and that sort of thing. | |

Exactly it's the retirees who are fucked. They are infinitely more fucked than the hedge fund assholes. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:41am
Tell me you're taking a break to try out them fishing tips of yore!? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:44am
Yes, I am leaving to write a book of fishing tips... HAUNTED FISHING TIPS!!! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:48am
H, I haven't held a fishing pole since age 12, and I would buy that book in a minute. In hardcover. At list price. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:49am
John McCain for White House chef! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:49am
I will be doing an election day special, by the way... look out for details. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:50am
Agreed Parq and Hatch....These issues need to be worked out... Yummmm. ribs | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:50am
stingy d:
i'll be sorry to see you go too hatch. you played mort garson and woody guthrie.... and i missed those too... missing is going to be the running theme | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:50am
John McCain for a hot dog stand on Wall Street. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:51am
Personally, I vote John McCain for Bar-B-Q Pope, | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:52am
Takin me back to the Cat Club. Takin me back to bailouts, the quaint ol SnL bailout of the quaint 1980's | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:53am
What show was that rib thing from? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:53am
Like the Haunted Fishing Tips idea. Maybe you could follow up with "Frog gigging, the SWAMP THING WAY" | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:54am
Does that mean mccain bbq's the pope or the pope bbq's mccain? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 9:55am
The ribs were cooked on the Rachael Ray show. I mean McCain should be elected Pope of BBQ, by the cardinal college of BBQers. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:01am
i think i heard about these from the main blog but they are still smokin http://www.the-glass-guillotine.blogspot.com/ http://www.nasdaqforever.blogspot.com/ and this http://blondezombies.blogspot.com/ good luck on the path of the righteous | |

Oh yeah I re-Member that flick - ouch! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:02am
To get in banned in Japan is pretty bad...usually anything goes there. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:09am
This Euphoria record is a good one to enjoy your marijuana to. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:10am
Hatch, it's been a pleasure to hear you on Tuesdays, I hope that it works out alright for you. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:11am
Bad Ronald:
Yay - Basket Case! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:19am
Bad Ronald:
Dig this Beatles cover! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:19am
I see where the diner scene in Mulholland Drive just got voted as the scariest scene in any movie evar. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:24am
Dearest Hatch, You have been my Tuesday morning savior and I will miss you so terribly. Maybe I can call you up on Tues mornings and you can update me on the political goings on of the day or tell me about the latest movie you saw or plan to see and I can just be quiet on my end of the line.... I loved your show HATCH!!! I patiently and hopefully await your return to the airwaves. XO | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:25am
Hatch, you're my coconut fudge! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:26am
JCityJensen + DavidLeeRoth:
You will be missed - but one question before you go what is the music playing behind you now? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:27am
stingy d:
haha, thats a nice thing to say... i read it as a fridge three times in a row though yr a necco brand sky bar to me | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:28am
DJ Mama:
Wow. Keili does not know this about you leaving. She will be distraught. I think we should just not tell her and I will play an archived show each Tuesday, as if it were new. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:30am
Gillnet is for SISSIES! A true Alaskan grapples them suckers, bear-paw-style! RARGH!!! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:30am
Poor John McCain. First Sarah stole his political spotlight, now it turns out that Todd is the better fisherman. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:32am
DJ Mama, don't let her find out! It's like learning there is no Santa Claus. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:34am
DJ Mama:
Seriously! When she did find that out, (just 4 painful years ago) she cried and asked if it was still OK to like Beanie Babies. What would happen if she found out about you? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:35am
She would probably ask, "Is it still still ok to like Beanie Babies?" | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:36am
DJ Mama:
My niece Sabrina is here and she is quite upset about this news. In her French accent she said, "I don't know who is this Ken, but I don't like him!" lol. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:50am
Hatch . . . what the hell do you MEAN, "learning there is no Santa Claus"?? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:51am
Easter Bunny:
Yeah, what's the big idea? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:52am
I love the Hatchtastic playlist, covering all of your bases on your last (for now) show | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:52am
Oh shit, I just ruined the whole damn year for all the kindergarten listeners. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:53am
Tooth Fairy:
Sorry E. Bunny, it's just you and me. Santa's fictional. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:54am
hey, this might be a stupid question, but did you win the election? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:55am
Yes, I won. I was running unopposed. You can call me Kings County Democratic Committeeman Hatch now. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 10:57am
DJ Mama:
Tue. 9/30/08 11:01am
Oh snap, Jas, I meant to ask the same thing myself weeks ago. Good catch. I wish I could count on the electorate to see how stark-naked King McCain is. But, to mix allusions, no one ever lost an election underestimating the intelligence of the American people. Or, as Bush would say, misunderestimating. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:08am
Bad Ronald:
No chance you have the "Psycho" track by Jack Kittel laying around huh? It would fit the motif. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:10am
I could find it, but... pulled too much other stuff I want to play. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:10am
Hatch, I gotta pile on here: I'll miss your show too. Not to mention that since I am probably the last person on earth who still buys cd's, what's left of the record industry will suffer too, since you are one of the primary culprits in getting me to spend my hard-earned $$ on music . . . and p.s.: what, exactly, does a County Democratic Committeeman do? Can we now start deriding you as a do-nothing, entrenched politician, or are you going to clean up King's County (single-handedly)? A 'maverick'? Best of luck, and we'll catch you on fill-ins. . . | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:11am
Bad Ronald:
K tx anyway. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:12am
I'm a maverick, and I was never voted Miss Congeniality. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:16am
g...you and me both...I fact I actually spent some money on vinyl the other day....Hatch, I realize that I have not been listening long enough to qualify as a regular, but in the short time since I discovered FMU, your show has helped me get through Tuesdays...good luck with your real job and your political career. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:19am
Sean Daily:
Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:21am
'Morning, Sean. Down that first cup of coffee and join the party. And I do mean Party. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:21am
Man, some people are just f-ed up. Damn. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:22am
Bad Ronald:
Thanks Hatch at least you have satisfied my "Psycho" jones visually! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:23am
Sean Daily:
You mean par-TAY! Parq. You gotta say it like a MTV host during spring break, and a "Wooooooo!" is recommended either before or after, preferably both. I don't know WHY this is. I just report the news. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:23am
From the Chicago Tribune--Today: "There's been no shortage of takeoffs on Sarah Palin lately, from television skits to action figures, but Bruce Elliott has gone one step further than most. He's taken off her clothes." Elliott, whose wife, Tobin Mitchen, owns the Old Town Ale House on Chicago's North Side, painted a nude portrait of the Republican vice presidential nominee and hung it above the bar, where it's now a prime attraction among his display of more than 200 celebrity portraits and other racy art. Palin became Elliott's muse after he saw her on TV. "I've been following her religiously," he said Monday at the bar. "I had never heard of her before, like everyone else. I find her bizarrely fascinating, even though I pretty much despise everything she stands for." | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:25am
If you can find that picture, I think it would fit in with the gore and destruction on today's playlist. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:27am
Sean Daily:
Speaking of gore and destruction, Dow's up 222 points, or 2.2%. I got a fiver says this "rally" lasts one day, tops. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:30am
Gores not running for President again, is he? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:31am
Sorry Ike, I think I missed an apostrophe there. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:32am
Where is Ross Perot and his charts when you need him...giant sucking sound...indeed. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:33am
look, if they would just get the hadron collider up and running already, we wouldn't have to worry about any of this ever, ever again. i think i'll quite like getting sucked into a black hole. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:34am
Sean, you misunderestimate me. I meant "Party", as in "the Party is poised to take power as soon as the assasinations are completed." | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:37am
Sean Daily:
Parq: Ah, I see. Still, can't we make it "the par-TAY! is poised etc., etc.". I feel so... strange saying "party" like I'm not a drunk frat boy... so strange... so... VULNERABLE... Oh, and speaking of vulnerable, gas lines are back, people! Woo hoo! http://biz.yahoo.com/hftn/080930/092608_gasshortage_okeefe_fortune.html?.v=3 | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:38am

Someone said PARTY - Woooooooooo!! (rips off tube top) | |

In keeping with the par-TAY theme: S T A G E D I V E | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:41am
Tue. 9/30/08 11:41am
Gotta go Hatch. Thank you from the darkest corners of my heart. Hear you soon I hope! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:42am
Bad Ronald:
Gimme back my roofies! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:42am
Rob, so sad. Who will I secretly stalk on the radio Tuesday mornings now? Come over for dinner soon, ok? | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:43am
Ron, thanks for a visual image that is going to plague me the rest of the day. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:43am

Tue. 9/30/08 11:56am
hey Hatch, here's a collection of McCain's "the fundamentals of our economy are strong" comments from the past year or so: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAKGyhiE7SE I'll miss you on Tuesday mornings, but looking forward to election day! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:58am
Is it necessary for you to include your political propaganda in the show? The lesser of two evils is Obama but hardly an inspiring figure....please...give it a rest! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 11:59am
Shut it, Larry. | |
Tue. 9/30/08 12:00pm
you're brainwashed! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 12:00pm
Before you go Hatch..what is your background song...and THANK YOU for great music! | |
Tue. 9/30/08 12:01pm

Mr. Micheal J. Adams is unable to return a phone call, email, or any other way you attempt to contact him from my experience. I have reached out to him through multiple ways of communication, waited sometimes weeks for a response and I just don't recieve one. Doesn't a client have the right to communicate with their lawyer?
I have delt with my fair share of lawyers and I understand they have a bad reputation in general. Mr. Micheal J. Adams has gone beyond what I feel are the things I've witnessed with previous lawyers. Specifically, he has done three main things so I have reported him to the licensure board. Since I have reported him, I do not feel comfortable naming the specific things he has done. This would identify me to him.
Posted by anonymous
I filed for bankruptcy in 2008 and everything was discharged according to my lawyer in early 2009. And in 2010, I got served with several outstanding judgments. As it turns out my lawyer did not follow the correct procedures and I ended up having to file a charge against this attorney with the state bar. I have not had any luck in getting a response from Mr. Adams, and will let the state handle the issues. I would not recommend this person to anyone needing to file bankruptcy.

The autographs that pass through the doors here at PSA/DNA are the lifeblood of the signature collecting hobby, and each has a special place for a given collector in the market.
In an effort to categorize those autographs that appeal to the widest range of collectors, we've elected to rank the top autographs from each sport.
Today, we discuss the Top 20 autographs from America's most collected sport – baseball.
These twenty autographs are ranked according to a combination of factors, including popularity, historical significance and value.
Do you agree with our baseball list?
Read through the slideshow to see how we rank the Top 20 Baseball Autographs in the hobby.
Baseball's all-time hit king may have tarnished his on-field reputation through gambling indiscretions, but that hasn't slowed his proclivity for signing autographs.
While the ample supply of Rose autographs in the marketplace have suppressed his autograph's value, it doesn't change the fact that no autographed baseball collection is complete without Rose's signature.
Looking for an interesting inscription? Rose has added "I'm sorry I bet on baseball" alongside some of his autographs.
Learn more about Pete Rose's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
Never one to slight a collector, Lajoie featured a methodical, legible signature signed as "Larry Lajoie" and occasionally would sign his full name "Napolean Lajoie." As an added bonus, Lajoie dated a large number of his correspondences under his signature.
Learn more about Nap Lajoie's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
Nolan Ryan's signature could be compared to his best pitch – a fastball. It was typically signed quickly by Ryan who was an accommodating signer during his entire career.
As a rookie in 1966 with the Mets, Ryan's signature was small but legible. By the time he reached the Angels in the 1970s, his autograph was large, full of life and character. In retirement, Ryan takes more time with his signature and even signs large quantities for charity.
Learn more about Nolan Ryan's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
Finding a real signature of Joe Jackson is incredibly difficult. His signature appears on a number of stock certificates kept in his family and willed to his sister, who sold them in the early 1990s. Most are double-signed and rarely surface.
Jackson's illiteracy was public knowledge and his signature was childlike. He wrote his name with his wife's help. The end result was choppy and barely legible, which explains why he did it so infrequently.
Learn more about Joe Jackson's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
This powerful slugger's autograph is almost a thing of legend. While some examples exist, they rarely surface (and when they do, they command staggering prices).
Gibson's autograph is elusive and the reason is simple – Negro League players were rarely asked for their signatures. When they were, they were not placed on premium items, and instead, found their way onto scraps of paper or scorecards.
The former catcher's scrawl was just that – very childlike, slow and deliberate. Gibson, who died at the young age of 35, struggled to sign his name and offered three common variants: Joshua Gibson, Josh Gibson and J. Gibson.
Learn more about Josh Gibson's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
Joe DiMaggio's signature went through developing stages early in his life, when he was still wrestling with exactly how to sign his name. While his signature went through some changes in the 1940s, it remained almost the same throughout his life.
As the years progressed, especially after the 1970s, DiMaggio's long and looping "g's" in his last name became smaller but, overall, his autograph remained a work of art.
Learn more about Joe DiMaggio's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
A prolific signer and letter writer during his post career, Cy Young was a great signer via the mail and in person, signing autographs right up until his death in 1955.
Cy Young's autograph is not in abundance, but finding a signature on a 3x5 or government postcard is not a challenge. However, materials signed by Young during his playing days are virtually non-existent. Single-signed baseballs are very difficult to acquire, as are autographed photos.
Learn more about Cy Young's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
Williams' autograph was highly marketed in the 1980s and early 1990s while Teddy Ballgame was a fixture on the sports memorabilia show circuit. His signature remained relatively consistent from the 1960s, until 1994, when Williams had the first of his two strokes.
A treat for collectors for over five decades, William's signature was always unmistakable, large and graceful.
Learn more about Ted Williams' signature on PSA AutographFacts.
Met Ott's name was short, but that didn't keep the legendary ballplayer from making a beautiful autograph for fans and collectors. Simply penned "Mel Ott" for the majority of his career, his autograph was very legible.
During the late 1920s, he signed his full name "Melvin Ott" from time to time, mostly on team-signed baseballs. Also during the 1940s, a clubhouse attendant occasionally signed team baseballs for him.
Ott's autograph can be found on a variety of items, including 3x5s, GPCs and album pages, which are the most common.
Learn more about Mel Ott's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
During Christy Mathewson's playing career, signing autographs for fans was not common. The practice of fans asking players for autographs didn't start in earnest until the 1920s, as the popularity of Babe Ruth helped change the game.
A handful of Mathewson checks from the 1920s have made their way into the hobby, mostly thanks to his wife who used to honor fan requests by sending his cancelled checks through the mail. These collectibles are coveted and bring a premium in the marketplace.
Learn more about Christy Mathewson's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
The Big Train's signature was typically very neat and almost always legible. When signing the sweet spot of a baseball, his signature would take up the entire space, making for a beautiful keepsake.
Johnson died at age 59 in 1946, before mailing requests to players' homes was commonplace, making his autograph tough.
Learn more about Walter Johnson's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
Foxx often changed with his signature, signing many variations of his name, including "Jim Foxx", "Jimmie Foxx" and "Jimy Foxx."
Double X's signature also changed in style. The "J" in his first name went through a transformation, looking dramatically different over the years.
Most of the authentic Foxx material seen on the market is from the 1950s and 1960s. That said, collectors should be careful with vintage signed letters, photos and postcards.

Derek Sanderson Jeter's popular signature is compact and to the point. The Yankees legend's autograph has certainly evolved from his high school and minor league scrawl to his major league signature. Due to a long-term signature deal with Steiner Sports, finding Jeter's autograph shouldn't be an issue on baseballs, photos and jerseys.
Early Jeter signatures, signed before he hit New York, are in short supply and should be considered rare by modern standards.

Sanford "Sandy" Koufax's signature is handsome and legible. Today his signature has become less precise from what it was in the 1960s and 1970s, but it still remains a gorgeous creation.
Koufax only signs approximately a thousand autographs each year, all done during a single, private signing.
Koufax single-signed baseballs command a serious price in the marketplace and are in great demand.

Roberto Clemente, who perished in a plane crash in 1972 while en route to Nicaragua, possessed one of the most desirable signatures in baseball. Obviously, his autograph is scarce for the above-mentioned reason but it is also tough as a result of something else.
What is it? Find out on PSA AutographFacts.
Ty Cobb, known for this tenacity on the field, signed frequently off the field. Most of the material known of Cobb is from his post-playing days. Signatures from Cobb's playing days exist in decent numbers, but are certainly tougher to find than ones penned after his retirement from the game.
One of the most prolific letter writers in baseball history, Cobb would often pen long letters of correspondence to family, friends and fans alike. In addition, his signature took many shapes and forms during his life.

Jackie Robinson's number (42) is officially retired by every major league ballpark and his legendary status continues to grow to this day.
#42's signature developed over the years and evolved from a signature with very little authority to a fast flowing signature with authority. This transformation began prior to his professional career and continued up until his death.
Thanks to the sale of his cancelled checks and correspondence, signed Robinson material is not rare, but it is valuable.
Learn more about Robinson's signature on PSA AutographFacts.
Gehrig's autograph was typically penned so every letter was legible but, if hurried, he would occasionally sign an abbreviated version dropping the "ou" and just signing "L. Gehrig."
After his retirement from baseball in 1939, Gehrig signed very few items, with most of his correspondence and requests for his autograph handled by his wife Eleanor.
The Iron Horse's career and life was cut short by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Gehrig died in 1941, two years after retiring from baseball. Most of the Gehrig material that survives has been penned on team-signed baseballs.
Learn all the details of Gehrig's signature at PSA AutographFacts.
In the 1950s, Mantle's signature went through some small changes, going from a very upright and innocent looking signature to a more stylish version. In 1956, this more stylish version of his signature took hold and it became slightly more flamboyant as the years went on.
During much of his playing career, Mantle rarely signed. Occasionally, he signed an autograph at the ballpark, team hotel or during spring training. He rarely signed team baseballs or fan mail.
Get all of the details on Mantle's signature at PSA AutographFacts.
Who else? In the world of autographs, there is nothing more symbolic than this man's graceful stroke.
Babe Ruth's autograph is, quite simply, the most desired in the hobby. Luckily for contemporary fans, Ruth was, perhaps, the most prolific signer of his era. Nevertheless, the zeal for items signed by the Sultan of Swat has not wavered in nearly 80 years, leaving demand to outweigh supply.
Fittingly, Ruth's signature was quite representative of the man – bold, flamboyant and striking. During the prime of his career, Ruth often would place quotes around "Babe" when signing his name. This practice mainly ceased during the late 1920s.
In the latter stages of his life, when Ruth was being treated for cancer, he had a nurse sign some of his fan mail. Although these were non-malicious forgeries, it is still important to note.
There are also several variations of his signature. From the abbreviated "GH Ruth" often found on cancelled checks, to his popular "Babe Ruth" to his rare, full-name version "George Herman Ruth," they are all highly desirable. Any one of the Babe's signatures would sit center stage in a serious autograph collection.

Cardio Barre Irvine
Few professionals can credit Flashdance with rerouting the course of their career. In fact, Richard Giorla could be the only one. The unconventional dance moves he saw in the film motivated the former Pennsylvania Ballet Company member to hit the streets of his new home, Manhattan, and learn breakdancing from dancers at the heart of the movement, trading his own dance expertise as payment. Richard's career was in full swing when, struck with an injury, he started teaching a ballet-barre class. Though he appreciated its stretching and toning components, Richard craved a more aerobic workout. So he created his own solution—Cardio Barre.
The unique workout consists of high-energy, zero-impact movements that sculpt the long, slender body of a dancer without a student ever having to step foot in a traditional dance studio. As they balance on the ballet barre, or whichever classmate is closest, pupils direct all their focus to one muscle group at a time, while the entire body stays in motion for maximum fat burning. His approach's pudge-busting abilities have made the fitness method a favorite of many health magazines and celebrities.

Scads of Coachella bands announce new shows ... Adam Lambert added to Pacific lineup
April 22nd, 2010, 3:25 am by BEN WENER, THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTERNow that Coachella 2010 has passed, Goldenvoice and other concert promoters are flooding the market with return engagements from many of the fest's attractions, big and small.
As I touched on in my overall wrap-up, Muse has announced a fall tour in support of its popular fifth album, The Resistance, kicking off at Viejas Arena in San Diego on Sept. 22. From there the outing moves to Honda Center on Sept. 23 and then Staples Center on Sept. 25. Another Coachella act, Passion Pit, will open all dates. Tickets -- $47.15-$77.85 for Anaheim, $35-$65 for L.A. -- go on sale Saturday at 10 a.m.
LCD Soundsystem has announced two more gigs, June 4 at the Hollywood Palladium, $29.50, and June 5 at the Fox Theater in Pomona, $25 -- by which time the group's third (and possibly last?) disc This Is Happening will have arrived. (It drops May 17.) Holy Ghost! opens both shows. Tickets are on sale Friday at 10 a.m.
Stark, deceptively simple groove duo The xx will next perform at two ideal locations as well, June 5 at the Music Box in Hollywood, $22.50, and June 6 at the Wiltern in L.A., $25. Tickets are on sale now.
The Music Box (formerly the Fonda Theatre) has four other Coachella-related shows coming up as well: Frightened Rabbit (the Scottish band that, along with six other U.K. acts, had to cancel its festival appearance because of the Icelandic volcano eruption), May 23, $15 ... Miike Snow, June 2, $20 ... the Middle East, who will open for England's Mumford & Sons, June 3, $15 ... and the Glitch Mob, June 11, $22.50.

With working some weekends I often need to change around long runs to fit them in, in the past (pre-baby) I would just run these a different day usually Monday. Now I have two not so wonderful choices: run after work on the weekend or run in the morning a different day either with the BOB or on the treadmill during nap time. None of these options is ideal so I tend to go for the late day post-work run.
This weekend that meant 16-18 miles on Saturday. That wasn't fun! I have a hard enough time getting the eating right for a morning run, but add into that another meal and multiple snacks and it's a disaster. That combined with the fatigue of a day at work resulted in a sluggish 16.5 miles. my belly was not happy resulting in multiple pains where I'm sure I was making a lovely face as the sudden pain came on and slowly subsided. This allowed me to take maybe 1/2 a Gu in the entire 2 hours and 15 minutes I was running which also didn't help to sluggish feeling.
My final complaint is my fuel belt, every time I run with it I fell like my back is bruised afterwards. I hate the feeling of it moving and can't stand anything around my waist so I wear it low and kind of tight. I think Saturday was the worst, maybe from my pager and cell phone being in the pouch on the back, it's padded shouldn't that be enough?! In attempts to adjust the contents I managed to lose my ID resulting in back tracking almost 1 mile to find it and forgetting to re-start my Garmin during this search mission.
Alright enough complaining, today Spring has finally arrived and I actually ran in shorts and a sports bra! Huge contrast from the jackets and pants of last week, gotta love midwest weather.

How's everyone doing? If you're into the Christmas thing, I hope you've wrapped up your shopping (literally), and are now just enjoying the season. I've got to get on to this part. ;)
I thought I'd share a fabulous Vancouver shop with you. I shot this place a couple of months ago for House and Home - it's in the current issue.
I love shops that sell great product, but that also have an interior that I could live in. Old Faithful is exactly that. It's full of reclaimed wood goodness. One of the owners, Walter, also makes a lot of what you see in terms of furniture. They're located in Gastown, in a heritage building. Beautiful. By the way, you can now shop online. Whoohoo!
Have a good Thursday! Back soon.

- - Tiger Botia/Stocking aggression issues.
Tiger Botia/Stocking aggression issues. 1 Attachment(s) Hey everyone, New to the forum, always found helpful hints here, but now ive got a problem i need specific insite on. I recently purchased a Tiger Botia loach, about 3-4" long from my lfs. I have semi aggresive 55g tank stocked with the following: Tin foil barb x1 Green tiger barb x5 cae x1 Kribenses x2 1m 1f Zebra danio x1 Dwarf gourami x1 ID shark x1 Tiger botia x1 Festivium x1 Rainbow shark x1 Bolivian ram x2 I introduced the festivium, tiger botia, rainbow shark, and a mated pair of bolivian rams that had lain eggs in the shop tank, last thursday (the 20th). I went away for the weekend and left the feeding and care to my roommate. When i returned early saturday my pleco was upside down on his last breath with his fins quite frayed and damaged, my male bolivian ram was nowhere to be found, my gourami, ID shark, and the female ram were all badly torn up, mostly the tail fins. I'm pretty sure its the Botia doing the damage as he constantly chases all the fish around and has clamied the entire bottom of the tank forcing the mated Kribenses out of their territory as well as all the others up out the plants and caves. I attatched a picture of the tank, is there a problem with the amount of planting or anything? Its been running for over a month now after cycling for two weeks and has pretty balanced levels. Fish are healthy aside from bullying. I also recently added a second Tetra Whisper 60 filter. Just putting that out there. What are thoughts on that much water movement? Any thoughts on the tank in general? I plan on returning the botia tomorrow, but i was wondering what other experiences people have had with them, whether my hunch is right about his aggresivness, and some thoughts on what other fish i might want to look in to that would be more compatible, or if i should just return him before he tears my tank apart and im left with nothing. Im looking into the following with or without the Tiger: Rosaline shark x3 Rummy nose tetra x5 Red tail shark x1 Raphael catfish or upside down catfish x1 or both Bolivian ram x 5 2 male 3 female Clown/bristlnose pleco x1 Oto x 2/3 Festivium x 2 Other suggestions?? Thanks alot everyone |
By tiger botia do you mean clown loach? Adorable, but they need a 6-foot tank when fully grown (if you want more Botia loaches, there are some better fitted to your size tank). Now onto the fin-nipping: botine loaches do have that reputation, but they are only fin nippers when they aren't in groups. These are shoaling fish, and the shoals have a pecking order. When there aren't enough conspecifics around, they try to make other fish part of their shoal, and this means nipping at them to establish dominance. If you do want more botine loaches and have the space for a group of 4 or more, then you can look into the Zebra loach, Angelicus loach, or the Burmese loach. All of them stay small enough to live in a 55 gal tank. |
I agree with Izzy, but i am going to go a step further and caution you about some of the other fish that are, or will, have similar problems. The mentioned fish are in our profiles, and each contains info on the numbers needed for the species, plus any compatibility issues. Please check the respective profiles to avoid more trouble. When the name in the profile is used exactly the same in a post, it shades, as some did previously; you can click the shaded name for the profile. But the fish mentioned are all in the profiles. Byron. |
Nope, i mean Tiger Botia (Botia hymenophysa) . How much damage does said "fin nipping" entail? Is it just minor damage, or can it result in severely shredded and damaged fins? Because I can understand fin nipping in a tank with semi-aggressive fish, but this is pretty severe. After watching the tank for a while, i noticed my new rainbow shark who is quite small, under 2" is acting very aggressive towards my barbs and some of the other fish. I also find my chinese algae eater chasing other fish off, but never actually attacking them. I havnt actually witness the Tiger getting a hold of any fish, but i have seen him chase all the fish in the tank. The Kribensis Chichlids are unscathed along with the Festivum, cae, tin foil, green tiger barbs, and rainbow shark. Its solely the gourami, bolvian rams, pangasius cat fish, and the pleco that died. Plecos are usually untouchable, male gourams can usually put up with some aggression, the ID shark is just as big as the Tiger, and rams were a full grown mated pair of dwarf cichlids. I wonder if im misplacing the blame and its actually the Rainbow Shark, or the Kribenses picking on the rams and Pangasius. Ill keep an eye on it. |
55g Stocking Decisions I've got a 55g that ive been slowly stocking for a while now. The current stock looks such: Tin Foil Barb x1 Green Tiger Barb x4 Chinese Algae Eater x1 Kribenses Cichlid x2 1m 1f Dwarf Gourami x1 Pangasius Catfish x1 Tiger Botia x1 Festivum x1 Rainbow Shark x1 Bolivian Ram Chichlid x1 As of now, some of the less aggressive fish, namely the Bolivian Ram, Gourami, and Pangasius Catfish are pretty beat up. I'm setting up a 20 gallon long to house these victims and start a community tank. (I'm aware of the cat fish's eventual size, im just housing him after my little brother bought one and decided he didnt want it). I also recently lost a Common Pleco, a Green Tiger Barb, a Zebra Danio, and a male Bolivian Ram. Now I have to decide and figure out what can deal with the fish left in the 55. Im looking in to more dwarf cichlids, but they all seem small and not aggresive enough to keep up. Id love to get some Denison Barbs, Rummy Nose Tetras, a Raphael Catfish, a Bristlenose Pleco, Otocinclus, and whatever others I can find that will do well. The other option is to pull the more aggressive fish (the Tiger Botia and Rainbow Shark) and go from there. Thoughts? Edit: I merged this post and the one response post into the present thread since the subject is the same. Byron. |
My history with semi-aggressives and aggressives has taught me that I should stick to community fish, so I wish the best of luck to you if you go that route :) Bristlenose plecos are awesome. You will never have algae on your glass again, but they're some of the smallest plecos out there and will not do well if your semi aggressives decide they're worth picking on. Make sure you've got at least a nominal bit of driftwood in there for them. I personally would try to expand the barb school, maybe with some normal tigers or albino tigers for variety... Right now you've got a bit of everything in there, so I give your instincts to separate the aggressives a thumbs up. Whether that's pulling out the picked on fish or pulling out the bullies is going to depend on what kind of tank you ultimately want, but be aware that if you pull the guys getting picked on, the bullies sometimes just look for other targets. Again, I admittedly tried and failed at the semi aggressives game, so you will probably get better advice on who goes well with them elsewhere... I just see lots of singles in there with an undersized school of barbs and a few semi-aggressives and I see warning flags. :) Posted via Mobile Device |
Syncrossus hymenophysa — Loaches Online "Aggressive" tanks have to be very carefully thought out. I'll just pick up on the fin nipping issue you mentioned. Any sort of bullying or harassing of any other fish by a different species is highly stressful. When this occurs within the species, it may or may not be, depending upon the species, the number in the group, and the tank size. For example, take angelfish. A group of 6 in a 55g tank with one of them so dominant it is a bully will almost inevitably lead to the death of one or more others. But put this same group of 6 in a 300 gallon tank properly aquascaped, and the bullying will almost always be "normal" for the species, and any submissive fish will be able to escape the brunt of it. When it comes to different species, bullying or aggression of one species toward members of another is always stressful and will cause weakened fish, health issues that would otherwise not occur, and premature death. This is guaranteed. You can read more on the effect of stress here: http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/f...um-fish-98852/ So the physical damage to the fin is somewhat secondary to the real problem, and that is the psychological impact this constant aggression has on the fish. And it is more than just physical aggression; the allomones released by these fish are chemical signals being read by other fish. In their natural habitat, the fish would easily escape, which is why one can see films of huge fish swimming alongside small fish. But in the closed confines of the aquarium, and considering that species which would never come into contact with each other naturally are being placed together--the result is not surprising. |
I'm on board with Byron. Could be any one from chinese algae eater (notorious for aggression to tankmates),Kribensis ,rainbow shark, or the loach. Would in my view need a tank of a couple hundred gallon's and lot's of cover for some of these fish to get along reasonably well.8-) |
I understand, and I've done my research. The guy at my lfs said they would all probably work, and lo and behold they haven't. Lesson learned. Everything was fine before introducing the Tiger and the Shark, and I'm very sure that they are the culprits. As of now I have returned the shark and my male Bolivian Ram has reappeared since I tore apart my tank trying to catch the loach. After watching him (the loach), he doesn't seem too aggressive, only in certain areas towards certain fish, and he has his claim under a log. He is very active as long as I am not standing right next to the tank or messing around with nets and decos in the tank, and is a beautiful fish, fun to watch. Ill hold on to him and see how the fish are now that the shark is gone. I lost my Dwarf Gourami and Pangasius last night. Both were pretty beat up already and just succumbed. I bought 3 normal tiger barbs who have already begun schooling with the 4 green barbs and the tin foil. I wont be getting any more single semi aggressives, solely schools of fish that can put up with what is in there now and some more bottom dwellers. The loach is always nosing around the gravel, so i assume hes doing a decent clean up job, but i wouldn't mind getting a more rounded and larger clean up crew. The cae is aggressive, yes, but all the fish in there now can get out of his way. Ill probably be getting rid of him in time though. Thank you all for the input, ill keep you updated. Now I need suggestions concerning future fish. It seems the levels of aggression have severely diminished since the shark left and I'm confident that with the right fish, this tank will do fine. So my potentials list is: Denison barbs x3 Raphael Catfish x1 Bristlenose Pleco x1 Upside down Catfish, or Coryadoras x2/3 Rainbow fish, or Giant Danios x3 Weather, or Khuli Loach x 1 Festivum x 1 (if i can sex mine I'd love a 3rd mated pair, and their territory is at the top of the tank, so it wouldn't bother the cichlids) Scissortail Rasbora x5 Rummynose Tetra x5 I need suggestions of what bottom dwellers would fare well with the current stock. If these^ will do, or if i should look in to something else. Id also love to get hold of a flying fox. I'm also setting up the 20g long as a secondary to pull out any fish that cant handle the 55g. Id like to keep it community, but id also love to start an apistogramma tank. Thoughts on that? |
I'm going to rain some more on your parade, sorry...but it would be useless for any of us to not point out problems when you ask, so I hope you can continue to understand the concern we share for the fish which is frankly our only concern. Denisons Barb should have a group of no less than 8, and this means a much larger tank. Here again, with fewer, aggression may rear its head among the 3 of them, or to other fish in time. It also has specific temperature needs. And it will eat the rasbora and rummys. As will some of the other fish too for that matter. Can you please read the profiles for the fish you have listed? I want to offer assistance, but when I am just repeating the profile data it doesn't make much sense.:-) A great deal of time went in to write the profiles, and they are there to provide this type of information. |

Father proud of sons who serve in military
Every day that Rich Barger comes home from work and finds no Army vehicle waiting in front of his Celina home, he considers it a good day.
Barger's sons Mike, 20, and A.J., 19, both are currently in military service. Mike is serving in Iraq, while A.J. is in basic training with the Army at Fort Jackson, S.C.
His oldest son, Chris, served with the Marine Corps' special operations unit as a designated marksman (sniper) and now lives in Troy.
Chris was the first to provide his dad with experience in military operations beginning in September 2001.
"Ten days after 9/11 he parachuted into Afghanistan. Before he left he gave me a quick call and told me he couldn't say where he was going or when, but wanted me to know where his car was parked at the airport," Barger recalled.
Now it's Mike's turn.
In his fifth month in Iraq, he is a specialist with the Indiana National Guard and has another 13 months to serve. The Indiana affiliation came about because of his attendance at Ball State University in Muncie.
His duty includes operating the big gun (50-caliber machine gun) mounted on top of the vehicle. It was just before Christmas that the Humvee Mike was driving hit a land mine.
His dad learned he'd been hurt when the National Guard called and said Mike had been in a blast in the Humvee. The message stated Mike was receiving treatment for his injuries, but gave no more details.
"At least, from that, I knew he was alive and I couldn't worry any further about the vehicle or the situation ... The glass was half full," said Barger, an early intervention specialist with Marimor School MR/DD in Lima and an amateur philosopher who likes to quote another amateur philosopher.
Hanging on the wall in the Barger living room is one of Vince Lombardi's sayings: "Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all time thing. You don't win once in a while, you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time."
"My boys have heard that a lot growing up," he said.
Just a few weeks ago Mike described some of the details of the bomb to his dad in a letter. He wrote that he wanted to "make sure that what I write is printed" and that the "newspaper does not add anything that did not happen."
"It was a normal day," he wrote. "My squad went out and did a routine recon mission to the place where we were to be going. I'm sorry I cannot give specifics.
After we crossed the bridge and got off the tracks that (were) on our route, we started to travel down a road that was about 10 feet wide.
"We were traveling down the center of the road to avoid the roadside bombs that the insurgents usually plant.
"As our convoy approached our destination, the scout vehicle warned us about something strange that was sitting in the road. I saw the abstract obstacle and swerved to avoid hitting it just in case it was an I.E.D. (Editor's note: improvised explosive device, i.e., booby trap.)
"After my vehicle rolled past, the obstacle exploded and rocked our vehicle. The blast was big enough to make my head smash against the steering wheel.
"I was shaken up at first but then after about 10 minutes, I was finally calmed down. After we got back to our base I went to seek medical attention. I had also learned from the medic that I had gotten a grade two concussion.
"I am doing well at our new location, and everything is going as we planned.
Mike thanks the community for its continued support of soldiers and then ends with a saying his dad taught him: "Brave is not facing what is to happen. Being brave is doing what needs to be done."

Deadly Virus Killing Piglets
(WENY)-- Many of us would agree that everything tastes better with bacon.
But, the cost of bacon is on the rise as a deadly virus is spreading across the U.S. Pork producers nationwide are now keeping a close eye on a new virus wreaking havoc on swine populations.
It's called Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea and it's been found in 16 states including New York and Pennsylvania.
Infected farms are losing thousands of piglets each week. That's because the virus causes severe diarrhea, vomiting and severe dehydration in pigs, and can be fatal.
Economists believe the cost of all pork products may soon be on the rise.

Queen Of The Highways
A Pony Express stop for our time
April/May 2005 | Volume 56, Issue 2
These highways are the latest manifestation of Wyoming's tradition of people passing by on their way somewhere else. Little America's future neighborhood was crossed by the great westward routes of the 1840s and 1850s, the Oregon Trail and the Mormon Trail. The Pony Express rushed through during its brief life, and various freight-wagon roads passed by until the transcontinental railroad superseded them in 1869.
Granger, now a tiny settlement with some 130 residents, resonates with echoes of the trails. Before it was a town, it was a Pony Express station and then a stagecoach stop. The Oregon Trail passed a mile or two west. The Union Pacific made Granger a town in the summer of 1868, as the railroad headed west toward its momentous meeting with the Central Pacific in Utah. At the site of the original Little America you can still watch the Union Pacific freight trains rumble by.
A few miles east of Little America a lonely historical marker along 1-80 describes the vanished railroad boomtown of Bryan, also built as the Union Pacific crept westward in 1868. Bryan had about 5,000 residents at its peak and served as a railroad repair and supply center until the Union Pacific moved its facilities elsewhere.
The Donner Party came through this area in 1846, Brigham Young in 1847, followed by the Gold Rush forty-niners and Mark Twain on the Overland Stage in 1861. I followed them at the age of six in the winter of 1943 with my parents, my infant brother, and our Boston terrier, Cubby, in a 1936 Hudson Terraplane. We were headed to Washington State, and we probably stopped at the original Little America.
Thirty-four miles west of Little America was Fort Bridger, now a state historic site. Established as a trading post in 1843 by the famous mountain man Jim Bridger, it became a stopping place for some 300,000 emigrants. Bridger was a prototype Little America, providing provisions, repairs, fresh oxen, travel advice, pasturage, and a place to rest during the long haul. East on 1-80 from Fort Bridger you pass through a nearly lunar landscape. You see a few herds of sheep, a few gas-drilling rigs, some pronghorn antelope—and a billboard for Little America. The sky is almost always light blue, marred only by the white feathers of jetliner contrails. Little America becomes visible several miles away, a huge American flag in front of its neocolonial wood and brick buildings. It's a place of wind and sky. Elevation 6,426 feet.
My experiences at Little America had been limited to hotcakes and coffee, writing postcards at the coffee-shop counter, and stretching my legs in the truck parking lot to the music of idling diesel engines until last April, when I spent five days there, looking and listening. Dave Mortensen, a tall, friendly man who has been at Little America since 1976, showed me around the half-mile-long spread with evident pride. The rooms offer goose-down pillows and 31-inch TV sets. The coffee shop and the dining room seat about 250. The huge menus list more than a hundred items, from granola and eggs Benedict to buffalo burgers, Rocky Mountain trout, and cappuccino. A trucker from Dallas told me he stops at Little America for the steak. "It's not frozen. Everywhere else the steak is brown." You can buy The New Yorker at the newsstand. The gift shops sell not only T-shirts and sweatshirts but also crystal chess sets ($1,375), ceramic dog sculptures ($514.98), and a large bronze cast of Frederic Remington's Bronco Buster ($2,019.98).
In the summer about 5,000 travelers enter the main building every day: vacationers, Illinois women going to California to see their grandchildren, gamblers en route to Vegas, people moving to new jobs, seniors rambling, local folk coming for Sunday dinner. I met two groups headed for Utah: a Mormon family of 10, and a women's softball team from Colorado. Miners and Union Pacific railroad workers stop for a beer on their way home.
The beating heart of Little America is the truck fueling center, whose million-square-foot parking lot can accommodate 320 tractor-trailers. "Two-thirds of our sales are generated by truckers, mostly for fuel, repairs, and food," Mortensen says.
Ten stately red fuel tanks stand near the center. Each of them holds 17,000 gallons, and another 80,000 gallons are kept underground. Sixteen tractors can fuel at one time, taking on 55 gallons a minute, fete Roitz, the fuel manager, says he sells an average of 1.5 million gallons a month, typically 125 gallons a truck. There are about 20 ways to pay for fuel, from cash and credit cards to credit accounts. A fast turnaround for fueling is 15 minutes, including an oil and fluids check, cleaning the windshield, and perhaps knocking ice off the headlights. Inside are 17 showers, a TV lounge, a laundry, a deli, and a full selection of truckers' supplies: tire thumpers, tools, direct-current TV sets, migraine medications, work clothes, paperbacks, CDs, pet food.
I spent a lot of time drinking coffee at the fuel center while drivers wolfed down their fried food. They talked about dispatchers, weather, wind delays, and long hours. They wondered about people back home. They spent a lot of time on the phone. Jack Martin, a wiry driver from Dallas wearing a straw hat and a massive Texas belt buckle, who was bound for Chariton, Iowa, with a load of supermarket food, said, "I always stop here. They treat you right, and the food's good. Did you see that crystal chess set?"

House to vote on slimmed-down bill for border
WASHINGTON (AP) _ House Republicans are heading toward a vote Thursday on a slimmed-down bill to address the immigration crisis on the border by sending in National Guard troops and speeding unaccompanied migrant youths back to Central America.
The bill will cost $659 million through the end of this fiscal year, far smaller than the $3.7 billion requested by President Barack Obama.
Lawmakers leaving a meeting on the issue Tuesday morning said the bill appeared to enjoy widespread support, although some conservatives said they remained opposed.
Lawmakers said it was important to act this week before Congress adjourns for its annual August recess.
Texas Republican Rep. Blake Farenthold predicted the legislation would pass with broad GOP support.

Andris Lagsdin put his Baking Steel up on Kickstarter and raised $38,000 in a month. He wanted to launch a 15-pound, polished, pre-seasoned sheet of recycled steel for baking Neapolitan-style pizza. It produces a crust so crunchy, chewy, and charred, you'd think it came out of a blazing wood-fired oven. It all started when Lagsdin, 44, read Wall Street Journal excerpts of "Modernist Cuisine: The Art and Science of Cooking," by Nathan Myhrvold, a six-volume collection. Lagsdin is deeply interested in cooking. He worked for Todd English at Figs, and is now part of Stoughton Steel, a family business in Hanover. Getting material to make the sheets was the easy part. Kickstarter gave him the funding and put the word out.

You know those museums that are really quiet and you can't touch anything? These are definitely not those museums. Take the Boston Children's Museum. It's one-of-a-kind, world-renowned center for enrichment. But the kids don't care about that. They just like that it's as fun as a barrel of monkeys. The Museum of Science has scary dinosaurs, loud electric bursts, and an Imax screen the size of a basketball court, and it's still extremely educational. The Kidspace at Mass MoCA has really mind-blowing art, including some uniquely interactive work. At the Discovery Museums in Acton, kids can bounce a ball three stories high or engineer their own train track. Of course, if your family loves those quiet museums, we have plenty of those too.

I used a template from the August, 2012, ScrapSimple Club goodies by Laura Louie and the Boy Joy Collection Biggie by Paula Wright. Font: Myriad Pro
What great photos, and I love the template you used. Terrific layout.
LOL! I love the stand-off photo on the bottom!!!!
This made me laugh! Great colours to work with those fab photos!! I like the large circles too... Fun and funny page!
Very cute photos and you put it together very well! Great layout.
Xana - love how your page turned out! Your choice of papers was perfect for the circles. Cute photos.
Funny title and that lower photo is priceless. It does look like he is having a conversation with the goat. The goat looks pretty interested too. Great layout.
And the goat said ...? Perhaps that will remain a secret between Sean and the goat. A layout with a lot of humour. The Boy Joy Collection work so well with this.
Xana, I love the papers that you chose for the fans. The photos are so cute, especially the one of Sean talking. Such a fun layout. Great title.
Great photos and template. I love how you added your embellishments to the half circles. Fantastic layout.
I like how the bright blue frames make the pictures stand out. Nice combination of shapes.

Old English seolfor, Mercian sylfur "silver; money," from Proto-Germanic *silubra- (cf. Old Saxon silvbar, Old Frisian selover, Old Norse silfr, Middle Dutch silver, Dutch zilver, Old High German silabar, German silber "silver; money," Gothic silubr "silver"), from a common Germanic/Balto-Slavic term (cf. Old Church Slavonic s(u)rebo, Russian serebro, Polish srebro, Lithuanian sidabras "silver") of uncertain relationship and origin. According to Klein's sources, possibly from a language of Asia Minor, perhaps from Akkadian sarpu "silver," literally "refined silver," related to sarapu "to refine, smelt."
As an adjective from late Old English (cf. silvern). As a color name from late 15c. Of voices, words, etc., from 1520s in reference to the metal's pleasing resonance; silver-tongued is from 1590s. The silver age (1560s) was a phrase used by Greek and Roman poets. Chemical abbreviation Ag is from Latin argentum "silver," from the usual PIE word for the metal (see argent), which is missing in Germanic.
"to cover or plate with silver," mid-15c., from silver (n.). Meaning "to tinge with gray" (of hair) is from c.1600. Related: Silvered; silvering.
silver sil·ver (sĭl'vər)
Symbol Ag
A lustrous ductile malleable metallic element having the highest thermal and electrical conductivity of the metals and used in dental alloys. Atomic number 47; atomic weight 107.868; melting point 961.8°C; boiling point 2,162°C; specific gravity 10.50; valence 1, 2.
silver Symbol Ag A soft, shiny, white metallic element that is found in many ores, especially together with copper, lead, and zinc. It conducts heat and electricity better than any other metal. Silver is used in photography and in making electrical circuits and conductors. Atomic number 47; atomic weight 107.868; melting point 960.8°C; boiling point 2,212°C; specific gravity 10.50; valence 1, 2. See also sterling silver. See Periodic Table. See Note at element. |
Money: silver under the mattress
used for a great variety of purposes, as may be judged from the frequent references to it in Scripture. It first appears in commerce in Gen. 13:2; 23:15, 16. It was largely employed for making vessels for the sanctuary in the wilderness (Ex. 26:19; 27:17; Num. 7:13, 19; 10:2). There is no record of its having been found in Syria or Palestine. It was brought in large quantities by foreign merchants from abroad, from Spain and India and other countries probably.

A little bit more detail in your reviews would be appreciated, but thanks!
Rated 1.5 / 5 stars
She must be an alien if she can put all that weight solely on her nonexistant ass and just stay upright like that without falling over
nice tits though I suppose but that's all this is and the fanboys are rating it high just for that. you don't see women as more than sex objects do you? why are you so scared to draw fat where there should be some. because this lady has none, I mean she has literally no ass its like you were so scared to draw globules of fat you also shaved down some of her fucking pelvis for gads' sake. and where are her organs?
her tits also defy newton's laws of gravity space and time and all that shit. I mean like, her right boob is protuding out like a bullet and the other is just kind of ...sitting there not responding to the muscles in the pectoral where her arm kinda connects. I mean... the one part of her body you let her have fat on, that boob is too perky and not "hanging" like regular fat if a REAL woman raised her arm like that.
the only way the tits would be like that is if she thrusted her torso forward and sort of bent backwards but shes not. her upper body is very rigid and stiff.
like wtf man
your shit was better two years ago
what happened?!?!?!?!?
I will humbly accept your criticism and work on something better.
Just know, that no, I do not see women as sex objects; I see women as beautiful.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Really great work,keep them coming!
I'll try and update as much as I can. College has been overbearing on me lately. I will be sure to have more stuff!

I don't really like her knees and thelower parts of her legs....but...i WANT that shirt. >_>;
Yeah, legs have always given me difficulty. I tend to draw the fat part of the calf in different positions, but I guess it doesn't always work. But, I appreciate the feedback!

In it, but not of it. TPM DC
GOP Rep: Republicans Are Turning On The War In Afghanistan
Jones has been an outspoken critic of keeping the Afghanistan conflict going for some time now, and he was joined at the press conference by several of his colleagues who've been saying the same thing for as long or longer.
Jones and Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH), the progressive superstar who's been one of the most vocal when it comes to calling for end to the war, are co-sponsoring a bill calling for a US pullout of Afghanistan by the end of 2011. Should it make it to the floor, the bill would require the House to vote its opinion on keeping the war going.
Lawmakers have tried to bring an end to the war on the House floor in the past. Kucinich was asked about the chances of this bill versus his others. Kucinich didn't sound hopeful, but he said American opinion is on his side.
"The American people are not going to stand for their sons' and daughters' lives being continually put on the line for a corrupt government in Afghanistan and for no strategic purpose."
Kucinich took a shot at President Obama, saying the White House "keeps sliding the exit day."
"Even Secretary [of Defense Robert] Gates is talking about 'years' now," Kucinich said. "What? We were supposed to be out by 2011."
Also in attendance at the event were Reps. Ron Paul (R-TX), Pete Stark (D-CA) and Barbara Lee (D-CA), all longtime critics of the war. All said the public is turning on the war and want America out of Afghanistan yesterday.
Recent polling has registered an increasing discontent with the conflict, which America launched in the days following the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. A Rasmussen poll cited by Kucinich and others present at the event found 52% of likely voters want troops to come home at the end of this year.
Asked about a potential future conflict that may have some support in the halls of Congress, U.S. military action in Libya, all four members at today's press conference said they were against it.
"No, that's a war," Stark said. "And there are plenty of ways for us to intervene [other than military action] and I hope we've learned as the greatest, most powerful nation on Earth to use that power wisely and humanely."

Getting To Know... Hsieh Su-Wei
Published February 13, 2012 01:19
PATTAYA CITY, Thailand - In 2001, Hsieh Su-Wei announced herself to the WTA with a phenomenal debut season, highlighted by semifinal and quarterfinal runs in Bali and Pattaya City. Last week, Hsieh, still just 26 years old, returned to Pattaya where she came through qualifying before ending an 11-year wait to reach a second semifinal. After her quarterfinal win over Sania Mirza, we caught up with Hsieh to talk comebacks, new coaches and the Olympic dream.
Congratulations on reaching the semifinals, what's been the secret behind your success in Thailand?
HSW: I've been working very hard for the last two weeks. I've trained every day since the Australian Open finished and worked at all parts of my game. Both technical and mental. My coach said after all my hard work I deserve to have some wins!
You've done very well in Pattaya and other Asian tournaments in the past. Do you think the hotter conditions help your game?
HSW: It's interesting that I've done well here, as I was playing Fed Cup recently on a totally different surface. But for me the weather was good and playing some matches in qualifiers helped. I actually don't mind where in the world I play, though. I enjoy all tournaments and all cities. It's one of the fun things of being a tennis player, as you get to see all these different tournaments and places and people. I like it a lot.
What are your goals for the coming season?
HSW: I hope that my ranking will be high enough to make the qualifiers for Miami. Then after that my aim is to make it back into the Top 100. Then the Top 50, and just keep on improving. I need to improve mentally and physically and work on my concentration.
As 2012 is an Olympic year, are you excited about the possibility of representing your country in London?
HSW: I enjoy playing for my country, whether it's Fed Cup, Asian games or something else. But unfortunately I didn't get to play in the last Olympics as my ranking wasn't high enough, but this year I hope my ranking will be high enough to take part in the singles and doubles.
Going back to the beginning, how did you get started in tennis?
HSW: I started when I was just five, so that's more than 20 years. My dad was always very focused on me being a tennis player and for a long time organized everything for me, managed my schedule, booked the court… everything.
After a difficult few years, your ranking is back on the rise. Have you made any changes to your game or approach to tennis?
HSW: Up until a few years ago I wasn't playing singles and just focused on doubles for a while. I had a few problems off the court and my ranking fell. But now practice is going well, I have a new coach from Australia, Paul McNamee, and things are going well. I'm positive about the future.
How did you start working with Paul?
HSW: We started at Wimbledon and for the US Open and he was helping me for doubles. Paul was helping an Australian girl at Wimbledon and she said maybe he could help me, and I didn't know who was this guy but said I'll give it a try. I reached the semifinals at Wimbledon in mixed doubles and I think we work pretty well together. I understand what he is talking about. As he cannot travel with me much, he tells me what to do by text!
You've had success in both singles and doubles, which do you prefer?
HSW: I like all types of tennis. Singles, doubles, mixed doubles. They are all different but fun in their own way and all very interesting. Most of all I just like to have fun on court, so sometimes it's fun to be out there with someone else, but other times it is challenging to be on your own. I've had some great doubles results and really enjoyed playing with some of my best friends, like Peng Shuai and Chuang Chia-Jung.
Talking of your friends in tennis, who do you hang out with at tournaments and who are the jokers off the court?
HSW: I spend time with lots of the girls… Tamarine [Tanasugarn], the Taiwan girls, Thailand girls. Li Na is probably the most funny, but also Peng Shuai too. They both make me laugh.
What is your favorite tournament of the year?
HSW: I like all the tournaments. We are lucky as tennis players to go to so many great places. Maybe Roland Garros is my favorite. The court is nice and there is a lot to do in the city: good food, site seeing and shopping!
Away for the court, what do you like doing to relax?
HSW: Everything! Other sports, music, writing, books, posting things on Facebook, eating, shopping, taking pictures.
Pictures? Any particular subject matter?
HSW: Again, everything! People, nature, scenery. If I see something I like, then I will take a photo.
If you could change anything about tennis, what would it be?
HSW: I want tennis to be more fun! I want to play with a smile and I want the people who watch me in the crowd to enjoy it too.
